The Milwaukee Brewers will hope to build off of Sunday’s win as they welcome the Atlanta Braves to American Family Field this evening.
The Braves are struggling with health, as they’ve lost several of their best pitchers and last year’s MVP, Ronald Acuña Jr., for the season with injuries. Additionally, several of their standout players from the last several years—Matt Olson, Austin Riley, Ozzie Albies (who is on the IL), and Sean Murphy, most notably—have underperformed. That said, there’s still enough talent here to have Atlanta in playoff position, where they lead the NL’s Wild Card race.
Tonight, they’ll send rookie Grant Holmes (and all of his hair) to the mound.
