Yes, it has come down to this once again. After nearly avoiding a four-game sweep from the Phillies last week, the Atlanta Braves are down by two against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field.
Can Bryce Elder help them overcome this fate?
Let’s take a look at these pitching matchups.
Elder’s last outing was just last Friday against the Phillies. Pitching a deep seven innings and only giving up one run and three hits. A pretty solid performance for Elder that unfortunately didn’t result in a win (1-2)…maybe this game will make up for it if the Braves get the same Elder that showed up last week, and if the bats are awake and ready.
