After losing only their third series of the season, but holding on to their lead in the National League East, the Braves head to Fenway Park for a weekend series against the Red Sox.
The Braves (29-19) have split their past 10 games and now face the team with best record in the majors. The Red Sox are 34-15 entering their game Thursday night at Tampa Bay.
One interesting aspect of the series is that the Braves are scheduled to face a left-handed starter in each game.
The Braves lead the Phillies (28-19) by a half-game in the East entering Thursday. The Mets (25-21, .543) and the Nationals (26-22, .542) are tied for third, both three games back. The Mets trail by only two games in the loss column.
