Charlie Morton will make his (hopefully) triumphant return to being a Brave against the Phillies led by Zach Wheeler. He will look to help the Atlanta club to a road win, to bring the team’s record back to .500 after a frustrating Opening Day loss.
This game will be the second of a three game series, as the Braves look to bring the series level and force a rubber-match for Sunday. It would certainly be helpful for Atlanta’s attempt at a fourth straight NL East title to avoid starting the season 0-2, especially against a division opponent.
