Braves Pitcher Waldrep Earns First MLB Win in Speedway Classic vs Reds
The Atlanta Braves faced unexpected challenges during the MLB Speedway Classic due to rain delays and the unavailability of key pitchers Spencer Strider and Austin Cox. As a result, Hurston Waldrep, the team's No. 4 prospect, was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett late Saturday night and made his season debut pitching 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball against the Cincinnati Reds. Waldrep entered a difficult situation with runners on base and one out but managed to pitch effectively, showcasing a consistent delivery and a strong splitter. The Braves also saw a highlight from Eli White, who hit a three-run homer to help secure a win in the resumed game. Meanwhile, infielder Austin Riley suffered a re-aggravated injury during the game and will be evaluated to determine if he needs to return to the injured list. Waldrep's performance and the team's resilience helped turn a rain-soaked, chaotic event into a positive outcome for Atlanta.
