The opening of the Braves' SunTrust Park is just four months away.

From the scenes in a flyover video posted by the Braves on Facebook, much still needs to be done to the Battery Atlanta development that will be home to the Braves in Cobb County.

What you see will whet your appetite for baseball:

The Braves will conclude their spring training schedule with an exhibition game for season ticket holders against the Yankees on March 31 at SunTrust Park.

The home opener will be April 14, 2017, against the San Diego Padres.
