What's new: The Braves are playing in Camden Yards for the first time since 2009 when they lost two out of three games. The Braves had won series in each of their first three trips to Baltimore for interleague play, going a combined 7-2. Nick Markakis faces the team that drafted him in the first round in 2003 and started him in right field for nine seasons. Markakis cooled off the first couple of weeks of July but entering Sunday, he was 7-for-24 (.292) with a double, triple and his first home run of the year in his past five games. The Braves are 5-4 in interleague play this year including a series win in Toronto and splits against Tampa and twice against Boston.
