WATCH: Ozzie Albies retakes the lead with a two-run blast

The Atlanta Braves, fresh off of two days of offensive struggles and with catcher Sean Murphy getting a much deserved day of rest, shook up the lineup a bit with Ozzie Albies moving up to bat 3rd and dropping a slumping Austin Riley out of his customary 3 hole.

For at least one game, it worked.

Ozzie sent a 3-2 fastball out into the visitor's bullpen to retake the lead for Atlanta in the top of the 3rd inning.

Let's watch it fly:

It's Ozzie's tenth homerun of the season (he has 5 HRs in 51 at-bats as a RHH and 5 HRs in 103 at-bats as a LHH) , but it actually barely made it out: According to the wonderfully-named twitter account "Would It Dong?", that's not a homerun in many ballparks:

Home Run (10) 💣

Launch angle: 39 deg

This would have been a home run in 3/30 MLB ballparks, but not at Truist Park

Still, we'll take it - Atlanta retakes the lead, 4-3, on the two-run blast and hopefully the bullpen can hold it over the next seven innings for Atlanta to fight off a sweep.
