The see-saw NLDS Game 3 between the Braves and Dodgers took another turn in the bottom of the sixth. The Braves had jumped to a 5-0 lead, but the Dodgers answered with five runs in three innings. In the bottom of the sixth – on the first pitch from Dodgers reliever Alex Wood – Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman ambushed him:
Crushed.
That's big news for the Braves. Freeman's had a second-half power outage. From Aug. 15 to the end of the season, Freeman had just a home run with a .415 slugging percentage. He was one of the main culprits for the punchless Braves offense in Games 1 and 2, too. If he gets going with Acuna, the Braves chances of coming back and taking the series improve immensely.
