Braves Report podcast: World Series Game 2 is a Braves clunker

The Braves get the split they wanted to start the World Series, but Game 2 is very unimpressive.

In Episode 15 of the AJC Braves Report, beat writer Gabe Burns and staff writer Tim Tucker join Jay Black to breakdown what happened in Atlanta’s 7-2 loss. Our crew discusses why Max Fried might not have been as bad as it appears, should there be any worry about Atlanta’s defense, what to expect from Ian Anderson in Game 3 and why it’s so expensive to see a World Series Game at Truist Park.
