JR Ritchie battles into sixth inning of Wednesday's win

by Nate Miller | Braves Correspondent | Thu, Apr 30th 8:56am EDT

JR Ritchie allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits and four walks while striking out four over 5 1/3 innings in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact:

Ritchie was not nearly as sharp Wednesday as he was in his MLB debut last week. Still, the young righty impressively navigated plenty of traffic on the base paths and kept the Braves in the game, which they would win in a dramatic fashion via a walk-off homer in the ninth inning. Ritchie has now turned in a 2.92 ERA and 1.30 WHIP through two starts, striking out 11 batters over 12 1/3 innings.
