With power stroke returning, Braves face Tigers again

June 18 - The Atlanta Braves will try to expand on their recent power surge when they host the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday in the second contest of a three-game series.

The Braves have hit 10 homers over the last four games. Ozzie Albies struck the game-winning solo home run in the eighth inning of Atlanta's 2-1 win on Monday, the Braves' fourth victory in five games.

Atlanta tied a major league record with 307 homers in 2023 but has hit only 76 in 70 games in 2024.

Albies, who socked 33 homers last season, collected just his fifth of this year while ending an 0-for-15 drought.
