Atlanta enters the matchup with a 67-59 record, as they try to win this series tonight.

The Braves won the series opener 3-1 against the Phillies on Tuesday, but they lost 3-2 in their second game. Notably, Atlanta held a 2-0 lead halfway through yesterday’s matchup, but the Phillies scored three unanswered runs to steal a win.

Due to the loss, Atlanta only holds a 1.5 game lead in the National League Wild Card standings. The New York Mets are trying to close the gap, as they currently possess a 66-61 record.

In order to win this important matchup, Atlanta will need a stellar performance from their designated hitter Marcell Ozuna. He currently has a .309 batting average, and he nearly has 100 RBI this year. His offensive prowess has carried the Braves to a winning record, but he is coming off a lackluster 1-4 performance at the plate. With this in mind, he will try to bounce back this evening.

The Phillies hold a strong divisional lead, as they enter this game with a 74-52 record. Although, they have struggled to win consistently recently. The team is 5-5 in their past 10 games, so they will try to win a second straight game this evening.

Philadelphia will need a better performance from their star right fielder Bryce Harper, who is 0-15 at the plate in his last four games. He is 0-8 against the Braves in this series, and he has struck out four times. If the Phillies want to compete for a championship this year, then Harper needs to turn things around quickly.
