Phillies win third straight postseason contest, beat Braves in Game 1 of NLDS
foxnews.comHeading into their NL Division Series against the Phillies, the Braves were confident and hoped to play with the swagger of a playoff-hardened team that became champions in 2021.

Braves' ace Max Fried was not sharp and gave up two runs in the first inning off singles by Nick Castellanos and Alec Bohm.
