Nats endure rain delay and Braves for series win in Atlanta
ATLANTA (AP) — Foster Griffin allowed only three hits in six scoreless innings, Nasim Nuñez singled in a run in the fifth and the Washington Nationals survived Atlanta’s ninth-inning comeback attempt for a 2-1 win Sunday to give the Braves their first home series loss of the season.
The Braves had won eight straight home series to open the season before losing two of three to Washington. First-place Atlanta fell to 14-2-1 overall in series this season.
Griffin (6-2) struck out six and walked one.
Gus Varland allowed singles to Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley to open the ninth. Richard Lovelady gave up Eli White’s grounder that Nuñez mishandled at second base for an error, allowing Albies to score from third base.
Lovelady walked Ha-Seong Kim to load the bases. Orlando Ribalta came in and struck out Chadwick Tromp and got Ronald Acuña Jr. on a weak grounder for his second save.
There was a 22-minute weather delay before the game and steady rain throughout the sixth inning led to another delay of 1:28 in the top of the seventh.
Atlanta left-hander Martín Pérez (2-3) allowed one run in 5 2/3 innings. Right-hander Reynaldo López gave up a run-scoring single to pinch-hitter Luis García Jr. in the eighth.
Before the game, Washington placed right-hander Jake Irvin on the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder strain. Left-hander PJ Poulin was recalled from Triple-A Rochester. Irvin threw five hitless innings and combined with two relievers on a one-hitter in the Nationals’ 2-0 win on Saturday.

With the arrival of barbecue season, I visited several of my favorite spots around metro Atlanta serving great smoked meats and some wild side dishes.
I visited Texas-style brisket pitmasters setting up shop next to gas stations, family-run spots cooking low and slow and Korean-Southern mashups that’ll rewire your thoughts about what barbecue can be. The smoke is hanging heavy from Stockbridge to Mableton.

ATLANTA – Rain did not stop crowds from filling Piedmont Park as the 49th annual Atlanta Jazz Festival kicked off for Memorial Day weekend.
The three-day festival, which runs through Monday, marks the first major gathering at the park since 404 Day. Despite a brief weather delay during the afternoon, attendees remained determined to keep the music going.
What we know:
The Atlanta Police Department put extensive safety measures into effect ahead of the weekend crowds. Officials stated that security forces are being deployed heavily throughout the surrounding areas to monitor the festivities.
“To have units in park, on beltline you will see officers all over the city there isn’t one area that wont be covered,” an Atlanta Police Department representative said.
Event organizers emphasized that maintaining the event’s open-access model requires continuous effort behind the scenes. George Matlock, chair of the Atlanta Jazz Festival, Inc. board of directors, explained that the organization fundraises year-round to ensure the festival remains entirely free and inclusive to the public.
Matlock added that the event is deeply tied to both cultural heritage and local community building, encouraging residents to visit the park over the holiday weekend.
What they’re saying:
Festival attendees refused to let the rainy conditions spoil the experience, finding creative ways to stay comfortable while listening to the performances.
“I come every year for the last 4 years, so I didn’t want to let the rain stop me,” attendee Keana Washington said.
“We got this tent and everyone loves this blue tent. I said yeah let’s put this tent up . We will hang out, vibe and listen to the music and have a good time,” attendee Curtina Gray said.
Organizers also highlighted the broader historical significance of keeping the genre alive in the city.
“This city needed a cultural piece like the festival was very important and we want to keep this legacy alive,” Matlock said, later adding, “Jazz is roots of who we are as American, so we have to keep this form of music alive.”
Local music fans expressed gratitude for the city’s preservation of the free tradition.
“Keep bringing it back I know this is one of the only free jazz festivals in the us so yeah we need it and we are grateful to be in Atlanta,” Washington said.
