The Atlanta Braves and Chicago Cubs face off on Sunday in an MLB showdown at Wrigley Field. The Cubs have won the first two games of this series.

The Braves sit with a 37-29 record overall but they have lost two games in a row. So far this series the Braves have scored only three runs total, and they are going to need to find a way to get more offense going here. Overall this season the Braves offense has been strong averaging 4.71 runs per game which is 9th best in baseball. Austin Riley has hit 18 home runs and driven in 40 RBIs.

On the other side of this matchup is the Cubs who sit with a 25-40 record overall and the first two wins in this series have been a bit shocking.
