After throwing just two pitches Thursday against the Rockies due to a lengthy rain delay, Braves starting pitcher Alex Wood will now take the hill for Sunday's series finale. Manny Banuelos, who was slated to make his third career start Sunday, will pitch in relief over the weekend.
"After coming back inside and seeing what the radar was looking like going into game time, I was pretty surprised they wanted to start that game," Wood said of his rain-shortened outing Thursday, per MLB.com.
