Braves Bounced Back Big Time

The Braves bounced back in a big way on Saturday and it was the pitching that ended up being the difference. The Braves scored a run in the first and another four runs in the 4th and that was enough with the pitching not giving up any runs. Ronald Acuna Jr had quite the game, hitting a home run and driving in two RBIs. 

The Braves are averaging 4.12 runs while their pitching is giving up 3.86 runs per game. The offense is ranked 19th while their pitching is ranked 9th. They do a positive run differential, but it’s not a big one, sitting at 0.26 runs per game. Getting the start for the Braves will be Bryce Elder who sits with a 2-2 record and an ERA of 4.50. Against the Washington Nationals in his last start he went six innings giving up five hits and one run. 

Red Sox Offense Needs to Bounce Back

The Red Sox offense has been strong this season, but they really struggled on Saturday. Boston allowed Spencer Schwellenbach to lock in early,and that ended up being the difference. The Red Sox finished with five hits but zero runs crossed the plate. Walker Buehler was on the mound for the Red Sox and it could have been even worse as he gave up ten hits in 5.2 innings pitched. 

The Red Sox are averaging 4.67 runs while their pitching is giving up 4.48 runs per game. The offense is ranked 8th while the pitching is ranked 23rd. It was a bit surprising the offense couldn’t get anything going on Saturday and they need to try and get the offense out to a faster start here. Getting the start for the Red Sox will be Garrett Crochet who sits with a 4-4 record and an ERA of 2.04. Against the Milwaukee Brewers in his last start, he threw 6.2 innings, giving up five hits and two runs.

Boston Red Sox vs Atlanta Braves Prediction

Neither of the games have been close, and in this game it’s going to be the Red Sox that are going to have no issue getting the job done. Crochet is on the mound for the Red Sox and he has been nothing short of dominant this season. Even though the record hasn’t been dominant, he sits with an ERA of 2.04, and he’s going to lock down a Braves offense that has been inconsistent at best all season. The Red Sox are 5-1 in Crochet’s last six road starts. Back the Red Sox.
