Padres vs. Braves Game Highlights (5/24/25) | MLB Highlights

Well we got breaking news here in Atlanta at the moment as getting ready for his start is Sean Reynolds That is not Michael King. Michael King was scheduled to start this ballgame But he was playing some catch today and the shoulder did not feel a hundred percent right. All right partner Grant Holmes Remember opening day he came out of the bullpen against San Diego for an inning, but now he gets the start here today Slow roller to Nick Allen One away Luis Arise slaps this out to Verdugo quickly two outs Very efficient start just four pitches for home two down in the first for Manny Machado He of course with a big home run last night the solo shot in the ninth inning This one right back where it came from and into centerfield Bringing single for Manny Machado with two down here in the first inning First pitch swinging Jackson Merrill line drive base hit the other way Verdugo over to get it by the line and Merrill gonna hustle into second with a double and Jackson wasting no time Going into second base So back to back two out hits here in the top of the first inning have put two guys in scoring position for Xander Bogart a 1-0 pitch Popped up in the air may be playable down the right field line Olsen over towards the sidewall reaches out and makes a basket catch. That's a great play by Matt He was a long way from home Deep down the right field line and fouled Territory and makes the over-the-shoulder catch to hold those runners at second and third it is Sean Reynolds making his first major league start as he is filling in for Michael King Ronald two for four yesterday at his return Including a homer and a strike three gets a Kenya jr. Looking let's start here for Sean Reynolds first out in the bottom of the first is a Kenya jr. Two on with one out for Atlanta brings Matt Olsen to the plate Olsen grounds it softly Reynolds will flip underhanded to first base for the out Braves do have two in scoring position But two down so two in scoring position two down Here's Austin Riley on one in two now a line drive into right field Fernando charging in Slides forward and makes the catch that and the inning no runs two hits and two left in scoring position Back to work Grant Holmes gave up a couple of two out base hits on the first inning But no harm as he retired Bogart's to get through the frame good curveball There's the first strikeout of the afternoon for Grant Holmes there's the 2-2 pitch and a reach and a miss by Diaz fooled him badly with a slider a 1-2-3 frame for Holmes complete with two strikeouts Braves had a couple runners on in the first inning couldn't scratch anything across now another one at third But two down and here's Nick Allen and a bouncer out towards third could be a tough play if it stays fair They let it go and it hits the bag 1-0 Braves Allen rakes in the RBI on just a slow dribbler down the third baseline Machado could only watch it and hope that it would go foul Instead it squared up the front of the bag at third and that drives in for Dugo to make it 1-0 No advance for Lockridge still at second base and then bring up Manny Machado ringing single in the first inning Machado lines went into right center field a base hit here comes Lockridge around to tie the score at one Manny Machado driving in another run the big home run last night and his second of the day today Produces the first Padres run two down for Matt Olsen game tied at one. We're in the bottom of the third Olsen left field Lockridge sprints back Tell you what this crowd is pretty smart off the bat I thought it was gonna be close. It got loud in here right away Braves country knew it was going to be gone impressive to the opposite field 399 feet against that slider from Reynolds for Matt Olsen and the celebration ensues Atlanta back in front 1-2 to Riley Riley pounds one deep down the left field line to the wall and that one hops off the wall in left field Raising per second. Here's the throw on a left field from Lockridge. It's late. It's a double off the wall by Riley That's gonna do it Sean Reynolds spot start is over first major league star to one Braves looking for more Here's Ozzie swinging it from the right side Ozzie slowly to the left side Machado bare hands You see Machado coming in he has had some issues here lately But he made a great effort bare hand on the run throw was on the money But Ozzie beats it by a half a step and between the Ozzie all B's ground ball single and Nick Allen's ground ball single Yes, it's fun to watch what Matt Olsen did But that works to three to one Braves leading game two of the series And Grant Holmes back out there and the Padres putting something together here in the six to one nobody out here's Sander Bogarts called strike on the slider May have been inside but certainly Grant Holmes will take it six strikeouts for number six six Line to right and Acuna will take it So two down here with two on in the six the one one swung on bounce toward first Olsen charges he'll glove toss to Holmes covering and that'll end the inning so he pitches around The walk in the single two on when nobody out he gets the next three guys drew a walk nice work there by Nick Allen Here's Ronald Acuna jr. Let's see what he can do with him. Oh for three so far today Ronald Acuna jr. second home run in as many days Five to one Atlanta. It's one of the highest homers. I've seen all season. It just seemed like a bad matchup, right? You're not gonna overpower him and this is a sweeper that sits on the inner third. You got to get it away We're talking about Manny not missing mistakes Ronald even though he doesn't have a lot of that bats and just coming back He has shown us he's locked in right away. He's not going to miss a mistake He's going to punish it to the tune of four hundred and twenty seven feet for sixty seven yesterday for twenty seven here One in one Diaz hits it hard and fair up the third baseline That's gonna bounce off the shallower wall and Verdugo's got to come in and get it That'll allow Diaz to get to second base easily and a leadoff double for the Padres here in the seventh inning two down Diaz Did advance to third? At least a rise does not have a hit yet today Oh for three a rise of the bouncer to the right side as he secures throws to first base There's out number three seven really terrific innings for Grant Holmes job Well done if that's the end of the line for him 94 pitches for Grant left on left matchup versus Michael Harris Bases loaded one out. Here's the 0-1 pitch Harris hits one hard and blisters one to the right side In the score for the Braves Riley right on his heels now Verdugo first and third for Ozzie all B's to RBI single by Michael Harris And the Braves center fielder rips it open at 7-1 Braves in the seven To hit day today for Jackson a double in the first single in the sixth inning Merrill first pitch he sees is a changeup and Harris I Shouldn't think this but I thought for sure this was getting down I didn't think Michael was going to be able to get to it because it was sinking fast off the end of the bat But there he is Andrew Jones. He can appreciate a pretty good play in centerfield I tell you right now what he's saying down there. I catch that standing up. I don't have to die for that ball Well, he basically played at the second base bag. So he probably would have caught that standing up So now it's Blewett who comes on here for Atlanta to try to finish this thing off CJ Yeah, it's been really good for the Atlanta Braves Could be 0-5 and this should end the ballgame They even the series with a comfortable 7-1 victory over San Diego Matt Olsen with a big home run Ronald Acuna jr. Doing it again. The offense was terrific We talked about the length of this lineup now that Ronald is back. It was on full display this afternoon here at Truist Park
