Braves News: DoubleHeader to Decide Atlanta’s Season, Spencer Schwellenbach starts Game 1, more
It is a story that we have seen play out far too many times this season.
The Braves had the ability to potentially make things simple and easy on Sunday when it comes to making the postseason. However, due to a 4-2 loss to the Royals, Atlanta will now have to play a doubleheader in Atlanta vs. the Mets with their season on the line on Monday. While Charlie Morton made a few costly mistakes, the offense once again failed several times to capitalize on run-scoring opportunities.
As a result, it is win or go home for the Braves on Monday. Fortunately, they only have to win one of the two games to make the playoffs. And with the same being the case for the Mets, there is a good chance who ever wins the first game will not give much effort in the second contest.
It will be Spencer Schwellenbach in the first game for the Braves while Tylor Megill will take the mound for the Mets. On paper, that matchup favors the Braves, and Atlanta will have extra incentive to win Game 1 as that means NL pitching Triple Crown and likely Cy Young winner Chris Sale can then be saved for Game 1 of the NL Wild Card round. If Atlanta loses the first game on Monday, Sale gets the ball in Game 2.
The set up is simple for the Braves:
Win one or more games tomorrow, they will play the Padres in San Diego on Tuesday in the first round of the NL Wild Card round.
If they lose both games, the season is over.
Atlanta has bounced back many times this season, and they now have no choice but to do it once again.

A program that teaches young Atlantans how to ride bikes suffered a major loss this week, after thieves emptied a storage trailer, making off with 26 bikes and 24 helmets.
The “Shifting Gears” program helps young cyclists learn how to navigate city streets on two wheels from an early age — particularly in underserved communities that suffer from high rates of traffic injuries and fatalities.

An Atlanta nonprofit is asking the public for help after it was the victim of a brazen theft earlier this week.
Propel ATL said that thieves cleared out an entire trailer of bicycles meant for underprivileged kids sometime on Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning.
Jeremiah Jones, the nonprofit’s advocacy manager, said that someone broke into the trailer and took 26 bikes and 24 helmets.
The equipment was part of a program that gives bikes to children from low-income schools and teaches them how to ride.
“My heart sank when I got the call that all the bikes were gone. I said, ‘Surely not all of them.’ And all of them are gone,” Jones said. “This class is solely for kids, and this crime is affecting them.”
Atlanta police are reviewing security footage from the area. Jones said you could see people taking the bikes out of the trailer, carrying them down a hill, and bringing them into a nearby parking lot.
The nonprofit is now trying to raise more than $10,000 to replace the bikes.
Propel ATL is also asking who may have information about the theft to contact them at programs@letspropelatl.org.
A man was arrested at a concert last week after he shoved two kids off their bicycles, causing one of them to fall into a fountain, Sandy Springs police said. FOX 5 Atlanta’s Brittany Edney reporting.
