Related Topics: Atlanta Braves

The Atlanta Braves have played some of their best baseball against the top teams in the league this season.

They have a winning record against the National League's best team, the Philadelphia Phillies. They also own a 5-2 record versus NL wild card contender, the Arizona Diamondbacks.

In interleague play, the Braves have dominanted their competition, especially the best the American League has to offer. The Braves hold a combined 16-3 mark against the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, Cleveland Guardians, Minnesota Twins, Detroit Tigers and Houston Astros. All six of those teams are in the playoff hunt (although the Red Sox are fading fast).
