Atlanta right-hander Kyle Wright will try to halt his team's three-game losing streak and log a major-league-leading 17th win when the Braves host the Colorado Rockies in the second game of a three-game series on Wednesday.
Wright, the Houston Astros' Justin Verlander and the Los Angeles Dodgers'Tony Gonsolin all have 16 wins. Wright (16-5, 2.99 ERA) will be opposed by Colorado's Ryan Feltner (2-5, 5.87) on Wednesday.
Wright has won each of his past three starts and nine of his past 10 decisions.
In his latest outing, on Aug. 24 at Pittsburgh, he fired seven shutout innings, allowing two hits and one walk while striking out eight.
