Austin Riley comes up clutch in Game 1 victory

Austin Riley played the hero on Monday when he went 1-for-4 with a home run in the Braves 5-1 victory over the Dodgers in Game 1 of the NLCS.

Fantasy Impact

Riley broke up a 1-1 tie in the top of the ninth inning when he uncorked a solo blast off Blake Treinen to dead center field. It was his only hit of the night but it sure was a big one as Atlanta tacked on three more insurance runs to to take Game 1 of the series. It was the 23-year old's first career postseason home run and he's now slashing .238/.333/.381 across 21 at-bats in six playoff games this year.
