Nobody likes losing to the Braves at home to open a weekend series in this heat. Nobody likes losing to the Braves at home to open a weekend series in this heat and not just losing but getting pounded as a weak bullpen is put on display after the pitcher with a marble-sized bone spur gets lit up after a couple innings.
