Riley Finds His Swing Again | Atlanta Braves News

Austin Riley is hitting his stride again, fueled by mechanical tweaks, coaching from Tim Hyers and Darnell Coles, and a renewed focus on trusting his current form—not chasing past glory. After surgeries reshaped his body, he’s adapted his swing and prioritized core and lower-body strength through disciplined training, all while leaning on the unwavering support of family—especially his father, who still coaches him—and his wife. He cherishes deep team bonds, especially with Max Fried, their longtime friend and 2021 World Series teammate. While acknowledging the 2021 Braves’ slower start, Riley sees this year’s team as poised for postseason success, emphasizing health and consistency over past records. And personally? He’s got his eyes on a Gold Glove for his elite defense. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
