Braves' Ace Strider Sidelined: Bizarre Injury During Routine Catch Sparks Concern
Facing the Toronto Blue Jays, Strider pitched five innings while allowing two runs and five hits with five strikeouts. He threw 97 pitches, 85 for strikes.
The Braves reportedly don’t believe that the hamstring strain will lead to a prolonged absence. But with him just returning, the team may take a cautious approach with him.

Strider’s return was expected to provide a boost to an Atlanta team that has arguably been the most disappointing in MLB early on. At 8-13, the Braves are last in the National League East, 6 1/2 games behind the division-leading New York Mets, but just one game out of third place.
