In this edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Braves Report podcast, beat reporter Justin Toscano, sports journalist Gabriel Burns and co-host Jay Black discuss another Game 3 blowout against the Phillies.

Our crew will discuss why the Braves continue to have these problems in Philadelphia and we will take a deep dive into the pitching decisions that led to the six-run third inning.

We also have a lot to say about the Braves struggling lineup and the fallout from Orlando Arcia comments after Game 2.

Plus we look ahead to Game 4 and if Spencer Strider can step up to save the Braves’ season.
