The Atlanta Braves are running it back for the sweep against the Milwaukee Brewers on this Father’s Day Sunday.
The only batter on the Braves’ side who’s had experience against the Brewers’ Robert Gasser is Joey Bart, who’ll be batting seventh in the lineup. For the Brewers, Brice Turang has had his fair share of field days against Bryce Elder. In his 10 different appearances, he averaged .400 and a 1.100 OPS. He’s also the only one in the lineup that’s had a homerun against Elder.
Though the Braves have clinched wins in clutch performances in the other two games in the series, both teams were slower on offensive production, resulting in low-scoring games. Elder, who had a disappointing start last week, is looking to bounce back and hold the Brewers off the scoreboard, in hopes that the offense carries its weight early on.
It’s all happening at 1:35 p.m. EDT today at Truist Park.
