Friday’s game: Braves at Marlins

Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Ryan Weber (0-1, 3.26 ERA) vs. RH Jose Fernandez (5-0, 2.18)

What's new: The Braves are undefeated at Marlins Park this season, going 6-0 there and 10-6 against the Marlins overall. They have lost their past four games against the Marlins at Turner Field, though. They could use a good showing in Miami to boost their road numbers, having gone 6-23 on the road since the All-Star break, with the only series wins coming in Philadelphia and earlier in this trip in New York. Freddie Freeman's right wrist, which kept him on the DL for more than six weeks, is bothering him again, but his plan is to play through pain for the final nine games of the season when possible. It worked out well for Freeman in New York when he came off the bench to drive in five runs on a double and a home run Wednesday to help the Braves to a second consecutive series win.
