Philadelphia Phillies probable pitchers & starting lineups vs Atlanta Braves, July 6
The lineups are set as the Phillies look for the series win over the Braves on Saturday.
After taking Friday's series opener 8-6 on Apple TV+, the Philadelphia Phillies (58-30) look for the series win over the Atlanta Braves (47-39) on Saturday at Truist Park. The Phillies enter play today 10.0 games up in the NL East and can't leave Atlanta with a lead of less than 8.0 games at this point.
Starter Aaron Nola held the Braves to five hits over six innings, allowing a pair of home runs that accounted for the Braves' three runs against him. He struck out eight and walked two. Trea Turner powered the Phillies offense again. He mashed a pair of home runs off Braves starter Max Fried, both of the two-run variety, driving in four in the game. One homer traveled 459 feet, the longest of his career.
Orion Kerkering pitched a clean seventh before Jose Alvarado ran into trouble in the eighth. The lefty allowed a three-run home run to Marcell Ozuna to give the Braves some hope, but Jeff Hoffman shut the door in the ninth for his eighth save.
