Freeman homers as Braves strike again in 1st

It didn’t take Jose Bautista long to get a taste of how much he might enjoy being part of the dynamic, high-powered Braves’ lineup that has habitually tallied first-inning runs throughout this season. Freddie Freeman extended this trend when he drilled an opposite-field, two-run homer off Chris Stratton to give the Braves a 2-0 lead during the first inning of Friday night’s game against the Giants at SunTrust Park.
