There’s one month to go in the 2022 regular season and the Braves have one game to make up for their fifth straight division title.

In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Braves Report podcast, AJC sports journalist Gabe Burns fills in for beat reporter Justin Toscano. He joins Jay Black to discuss what Atlanta must do to reel in the Mets in the season’s final month and explain why the Braves should go all-out to win the division and avoid the new wild-card series.

Our crew will also discuss the record-setting pitching performance by Spencer Strider and what it means if Kyle Wright wins 20 games. Plus, is there a reason to worry about Kenley Jansen’s struggles and Ronald Acuna’s knee?
