Final road trip begins as Ian Anderson, Braves aim for better against Logan Webb

So, here we go again. Believe it or not, we’ve reached the final road trip of the regular season, one of the dreaded West Coast variety. The Braves will head to San Francisco, Phoenix, and then San Diego, before coming home for just six games, and that’s it. Holding a three-game lead in the division after a disappointing 4-4 homestand, it’d probably be best for Atlanta if they avoid the generally-terrible fate that’s befallen them on road trips to the California coast, at least when they feature NL West opponents. The Braves haven’t won a road trip that’s featured at least two of the Dodgers, Giants, and/or Padres since April 2011, and while we’re only talking about a couple of those per season, it’s still a long time that we’ve all been dreading the same part of the schedule.
