Atlanta Braves SWEEP Pirates Thanks to Clutch Moments from Harris & Fuentes | Atlanta Braves Podcast

The Braves swept the Pirates to finish their homestand and reinforced their status as one of baseball’s best teams. Key takeaways include improved performance in high-leverage moments, highlighted by Michael Harris’ pinch-hit, bases-loaded three-run double on Sunday and Mauricio Dubón’s standout leverage numbers. Despite solid results from Martín Pérez, Spencer Strider, and Bryce Elder, the process raises concerns about postseason rotation sustainability and the need for a frontline starter, with Jacob deGrom discussed as a target. The bullpen’s depth stood out, as Didier Fuentes earned his first career save in a short-handed spot. Atlanta heads to Chicago to face the White Sox next.
