Drake Baldwin Blasts Mammoth HR Before Rain Halts Giants-Braves

  • The San Francisco Giants and Atlanta Braves suspended Tuesday's game at Truist Park due to rain, with the Giants leading 3-2 in the second inning; play resumes Wednesday at 2 p.m. ET.
  • Despite a forecast flagging a 56% chance of precipitation, play continued as scheduled until umpires paused the game at approximately 8 p.m. EDT.
  • In the first inning, Atlanta Braves catcher Drake Baldwin launched a 473-foot home run, while the San Francisco Giants countered with three runs, including a sacrifice fly from Jung Hoo Lee.
  • Meanwhile, Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II exited the game with lower-back tightness, as fans and media criticized the lack of an official delay announcement.
  • Wednesday's action includes a day-night doubleheader, with the suspended game resuming at 2 p.m. and the regularly scheduled game beginning at 7:15 p.m.
