Charlie Morton, Braves look for second straight win against Marlins

The Atlanta Braves will try to make it two straight wins Tuesday night when they continue a four-game series against the Miami Marlins. Charlie Morton will get the start for Atlanta while the Marlins will go with right-hander Bryan Hoeing.

Atlanta slugged five home runs in Monday’s opening win in support of Spencer Strider, who carried a no-hitter into the eighth inning. The Braves enter play Tuesday with a 15-8 record and a one-game lead over the New York Mets in the NL East standings.

Morton will be making his fifth start of the season and will be looking to build off of a good outing last time out.
