If the Braves can win tonight, they’ll at least ensure that their streak of not losing series goes on through another midweek and they can go for an impactful series win of a four-game series on the road. If not, then the pressure will be on to salvage a split on Thursday afternoon.
Didier Fuentes has been called up and will be making the start for the Braves. Opposite of him will be Zack Littell, who has gotten off to a rocky start to begin his season for the Nationals. Will Fuentes be able to quiet this Nationals lineup that’s been doing some damage lately?
Will the Braves continue to make baseball life miserable for Littell? This likely won’t be a boring one, so let’s see what happens.
