ATLANTA—Braves left-hander Sean Newcomb will start Sunday in Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Dodgers. On Friday, Braves manager Brian Snitker said that Kevin Gausman would start Sunday, pending his availability after Friday’s game, but Saturday afternoon Snitker announced that Newcomb will start. Down 2-0 in the best-of-five NLDS, Atlanta is handing the ball to Sean Newcomb for Game 3 against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday. We like how Newcomb matches up with them and the success that he’s had against the Dodgers this year. And I talked to Newcomb, and Newcomb was actually really excited.
