The Atlanta Braves will go for the series win in Sunday’s match-up against the Arizona Diamondbacks as they hope to feed off last night’s success. Atlanta evened the series with a 5-2 win Saturday night behind another solid performance on the mound by Spencer Strider. Sunday’s game will feature a marquee pitching matchup between Atlanta’s Michael Soroka and Arizona’s Zac Gallen.
Soroka’s long road back to the majors ended this past Monday in Oakland where he tossed six innings while allowing five hits and four runs. Soroka pitched well with most of the damage coming on a three-run home run by Ryan Noda in the fifth inning.
