An early onslaught by the Atlanta Braves paved the way for yet another win over the Miami Marlins. Ronald Acuña Jr. and Ozzie Albies hit back-to-back homers as Atlanta chased Eury Perez in the first inning en route to a 7-0 victory on Saturday at Truist Park.

Grant McAuley and Jake Mastroianni of Locked On Braves recap an eventful first inning for the powerful Atlanta lineup, discuss Charlie Morton's solid outing, and size up the decisive head-to-head advantage the first place Braves have over the second place Marlins. All of that and a preview of Sunday's Game 3 matchup featuring Spencer Strider and Sandy Alcantara.
