After a solid homestand against two of the National League’s best teams, the Atlanta Braves will head back out on the road for a six-game trip starting with a three-game series in Philadelphia against the Phillies. Atlanta is 42-32 on the season and five games behind the New York Mets in the NL East standings. They are 18-15 on the road and are 9-2 in their last 11 away from Truist Park.
The Phillies suffered a big blow Saturday night when Bryce Harper suffered a fractured left thumb after he was hit by a pitch from Blake Snell.
