Spencer Strider leads Braves into doubleheader against Mets

After two straight days of rain, the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets will finally continue their series with a straight doubleheader on Monday. The Braves took the opener Friday winning 4-0 in a five-inning shortened game. The next two games were subsequently washed out resulting in Monday’s twin bill.

Spencer Strider will get the start for the Braves and is coming off of his most dominant start of the season where he allowed just two hits and struck out a season-high 13 over eight innings against the Marlins. Strider carried a perfect game into the seventh and lost his no-hit bid with one out in the eighth inning.
