Kyle Wright, Braves look to lock down series win in Miami

The Atlanta Braves secured their 20th win of the season Tuesday night behind a spectacular pitching performance by Bryce Elder. They will look to keep it going Wednesday with Kyle Wright on the mound. The Braves have taken four of five against the Marlins this season and enter play Wednesday with a 3.5 game lead of the New York Mets in the NL East standings.

Wright will make his fifth start of the season for Atlanta and his second straight against Miami. Wright allowed two hits, a walk and struck out six over three innings in last week’s series finale in Atlanta before a lengthy rain delay ended his outing.
