Braves’ homestand continues with pivotal series against Phillies

After snapping a four-game skid on Wednesday, the Atlanta Braves will continue their homestand with one of the biggest series of the season when the Philadelphia Phillies come to SunTrust Park for four games.

The Braves have won seven of the twelve meetings between the two clubs but haven’t seen them since the end of May. Atlanta will enter the series with 5.5 game lead and a magic number of six to clinch the division.

After winning 6 of 7 on their previous road trip, Atlanta is just 2-4 on their current home stand.
