Atlanta Braves news and notes from Tuesday. Tuesday marked a busy day for all of Major League Baseball as the trade deadline arrived. The Atlanta Braves did not make additional external moves following Monday’s acquisition of Jorge Soler, but the club did announce that Bryce Elder was recalled to Atlanta prior to Tuesday’s game in Milwaukee.
Elder made a brilliant start to help lead the Braves to their 5-1 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. He tossed 6.1 frames of one-run ball. He struck out seven and surrendered one base on balls.
