The prospect of this Braves lineup playing in Cincinnati is titillating. With a team that makes this much hard contact, playing in a tiny stadium like Great American Ballpark, the possibility for several innings worth of crooked numbers is alive and well. On the other side of this coin, a match-up between Kevin Gausman and Sonny Gray - at least, in their 2019 forms - could yield a stellar display of pitching from both sides.
As we all stare intently into our devices of choice to find out whether offense or pitching will emerge victorious, we hope you’ll keep up with the game here.
