The Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves are set to begin a very important four-game series against each other this evening.
Right now, there are just five games separating the Phillies and Braves in the National League East division race. With four games on the schedule starting today, the division race could go through a major shakeup.
After being dominated by the Houston Astros yesterday by a final score of 10-0, Philadelphia needs to be rebound. The team has won four of its last five games and can't afford to start a new losing skid, especially against a division rival that is threatening them at the top of the NL East.
