After splitting a four-game series in Philadelphia, the Atlanta Braves will continue their road trip Monday when they begin a three-game series against the Washington Nationals. Atlanta took two of three from Washington at Truist Park last weekend and are 12-4 against the Nationals this season.
After dropping the first two games in Philadelphia, Atlanta roared back with a 6-3 win Saturday and then outlasted the Phillies 8-7 in 11 innings on Sunday. The Braves are 1.5 games behind the New York Mets for the division lead with a huge three-game series coming up this weekend at Truist Park.
