Max Fried pitches Atlanta Braves’s initial 9-inning complete game since 2022, securing a 5-0 victory over the Miami Marlins

Max Fried threw just three hits in Atlanta’s first nine-inning complete game since 2022. Adam Duvall added a two-run homer as the Braves shut out the Miami Marlins for the second consecutive night, winning 5-0 on Tuesday.

After a shaky start to the season, Fried (2-0) seems to have found his form again. He breezed through the Marlins lineup in just 1 hour, 54 minutes, keeping them scoreless for the second consecutive night.

“I was just focusing on getting back to my usual self,” Fried commented. “Getting ground balls and staying aggressive.”

Fried struggled in his first start, allowing three runs against Philadelphia before being pulled. His next outing against Arizona was equally tough, giving up 10 hits and seven earned runs in just over four innings.

Since then, however, Fried has dominated the Marlins, allowing only one earned run in 15 1/3 innings, significantly reducing his ERA from a staggering 40.50 after his first game.

Manager Brian Snitker expressed confidence in Fried’s ability to go the distance. “I noticed in the seventh inning his pitch count was where it should be in the fifth. I had a feeling he could complete the game,” Snitker said.
