Rivalry Alert: Braves Face Off Against Dodgers

Get ready, Braves fans! It’s time for an exciting showdown as our Atlanta Braves take on the Dodgers in a thrilling four-game series at Dodger Stadium. This matchup features the National League’s top two teams and could very well be a sneak peek into what might be our third NLCS clash in the last four years.

On the mound for the Dodgers in the opening game is Lance Lynn, who’s had a remarkable debut month with his new team. Lynn joined the Dodgers right before the trade deadline, and since then, he’s been on fire, boasting a 4-0 record with an impressive 2.03 ERA. In 31 innings, he’s struck out 26 batters while only allowing six walks. It’s worth noting that all seven of his earned runs came from the six home runs he surrendered, so we’re in for a treat when he takes the mound.

But don’t forget about our ace, Spencer Strider, who’s been nothing short of sensational this season. He leads the majors with an incredible 236 strikeouts, a stellar 2.79 FIP, and a sparkling 1.057 WHIP, which also leads the National League. Strider, in just his second season, has notched the most wins with 15, and he’s been red-hot in August with a 4-1 record and a fantastic 2.37 ERA in five starts.

In his last three outings, Strider has been going deep into games, consistently delivering seven innings and allowing just one run while striking out an impressive 25 batters. Get ready for some top-tier pitching and an intense Braves vs. Dodgers showdown!
