The body of a worker was found in a beer cooler at SunTrust Park, home of the Atlanta Braves.

The discovery Tuesday afternoon arrived hours before the Braves hosted the Cincinnati Reds.

The Cobb County Police told USA TODAY Sports that the body of a third-party contractor had been found this afternoon by another employee of the same company. The police originally stated that the body had been found in a freezer.

The investigation is ongoing and the Braves are working with the police to help determine what happened.

The body was found a few hours before the first run at 19:35. AND.
