## Resource

The Braves’ playoff hopes took a hit as rookie J.R. Ritchie’s shaky start—six earned runs in five innings—led to a loss against the Cubs, despite late-game heroics from Acuña and Dubón. While Ritchie’s struggles raise questions about nerves, the team remains alive in the division race and now turns focus to Houston, needing a quick rebound to keep their title push alive.
