Braves vs. Cardinals game thread

The Atlanta Braves will try to end their road trip on a good note Sunday when they wrap up a three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals. Atlanta took the opener Friday night and then carried a 5-4 lead into the ninth Saturday before the Cardinals battled back to win 6-5. Jake Odorizzi will get the start Sunday for Atlanta while the Cardinals will go with veteran right-hander Adam Wainwright.

Ronald Acuña Jr. is out of the Braves’ lineup for the second straight game. Dansby Swanson will stick in the leadoff spot. Travis d’Arnaud is back behind the plate and will hit cleanup while William Contreras slots in as the DH and will bat fifth.
