The Atlanta Braves (94-68) are eliminated from the 2026 MLB playoffs after losing 4-1 to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4 of the NLDS. Andy Pages drove in two runs with a crucial seventh-inning single to seal the series victory.

Chris Sale pitched eight strong innings for Atlanta, but the depleted bullpen could not hold the lead. Key injuries to Spencer Strider, Bryce Elder, and Reynaldo Lopez hampered the Braves' rotation throughout the series. Matt Olson and Ronald Acuna Jr. were held in check by Los Angeles' pitching strategy.

The Braves' season ends with a look ahead to the offseason, where addressing pitching depth and bullpen reliability will be priorities. Eric Yastrzemski and other roster members reflect on the loss as the Dodgers advance to the NLCS.
