Ian Anderson, Braves look to extend winning streak against Phillies

The Atlanta Braves are looking to get back to the .500 mark for the season Saturday night when they continue their home opening series against the Philadelphia Phillies. After starting the season with four straight losses, Atlanta has won three straight including an 8-1 win in Friday’s home opener. Saturday’s game will feature a pitching rematch from last Sunday with Ian Anderson squaring off against Zach Eflin.

Anderson wasn’t as sharp as we have seen him in his debut but he still did a good job holding the Phillies to just four hits and one run over five innings.
