Craig Kimbrel’s brief reunion with the Atlanta Braves ended after just one game, as he was designated for assignment following a scoreless inning in a 5-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants. Despite allowing one hit and one walk while striking out a batter, manager Brian Snitker noted Kimbrel was fortunate, citing his low average velocity of 91.7 mph. Kimbrel, who had a successful early career with the Braves, was replaced on the roster by left-hander Austin Cox after struggling with the Orioles last season, while the Braves continue to struggle with a 27-35 record.
