How to watch the Braves this weekend: Time, TV, starting pitchers April 27-29
Coming off the energy boost the team got from Ronald Acuna’s arrival, the Braves make their way to Philadelphia for a three-game series against the Phillies.
The Braves won the final two games of their four-game series in Cincinnati to salvage a split and improve their record to 14-10. Since the Braves and Phillies (15-9) met at SunTrust Park on April 18, the Phillies swept a four-game series at home against the Pirates and lost two of three at home against the Diamondbacks.
The Phillies trail the Mets by one-half game in the National League East standings, and the Braves are in third place, 1-1/2 games behind New York.
