The Atlanta Braves will be back in action Tuesday when they begin a brief two-game series against the Boston Red Sox. Atlanta began its homestand by taking two of three from the Baltimore Orioles to improve to 24-11 on the season. Atlanta has opened up a seven-game lead over the Miami Marlins and New York Mets in the NL East standings.
Slowly but surely, the Braves are starting to get healthy. Michael Harris II returned from a two-game absence after jamming his knee in Miami. He delivered a walk-off double in the 12th inning Sunday to give the Braves a 3-2 win, and had a barreled out to the wall earlier in the game.
