Atlanta Braves at Philadelphia Phillies Game Preview

The Atlanta Braves (12-7) visit the City of Brotherly Love to face the Philadelphia Phillies (8-10) for a three-game weekend series. Atlanta is the only team remaining in the MLB that hasn't lost a series yet. The Braves lost the opener versus the Marlins, but won the next two to take the series.

Atlanta is 4-3 on the road this season and won the previous two. Philadelphia has lost its last two games and three of the past four entering this series. The Phillies' last three games combined for at least 13 runs, so the offense is starting to cook again, while the pitching staff hasn't lived up to the hype.

Philadelphia's pitchers total for a 4. 92 ERA (26th), while Atlanta's ERA ranks first at 2. 93.
