NEXT: AT CINCINNATI REDS
Monday
Time: 7:10 p.m.
TV: SPSO
Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Shelby Miller (4-1, 1.66) vs. RH Mike Leake (2-1, 2.47)
Comment: Miller is coming off a three-hit shutout against the Phillies, continuing a streak of two or fewer earned runs allowed over each of his first six starts as a Brave. The only one of those starts he lost came against the Reds, when he allowed three runs (two earned) in seven innings and lost 5-1 to Leake at Turner Field on May 1. Miller is ranked second in the National League in ERA behind Zack Greinke (1.56).
Tuesday
Time: 7:10 p.m.
TV: FS1
Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Mike Foltynewicz (2-0, 5.23) vs. RH Anthony DeSclafani (2-3, 2.50)
Comment: The Braves are trying to win for a third straight time behind recent call-up Foltynewicz, who faces the Reds for the second time in his three starts. The 23-year-old made steady progress from his first major league start to his second, from striking out two Reds to fanning seven against the Phillies, allowing five stolen bases to the Reds and none to the Phillies. He benefited from a 6-1 lead last time out, before giving up four runs in the win. After going 2-0 with an 0.86 ERA through his first three starts, DeSclafani is 0-3 with a 4.80 ERA over his past three, including a 4-3 loss to the Braves.
Wednesday
Time: 7:10 p.m.
TV: SPSO
Probable starting pitchers: Braves LH Eric Stults (1-3, 4.84) vs. RH Jason Marquis (3-1, 5.22)
Comment: Stults has been prone to the home run ball, allowing two each in his past two starts, including the first he's given up to a left-hander this year (of seven overall) when Washington's Bryce Harper took him deep. The Reds' Marlon Byrd and Todd Frazier homered off him in an 8-4 win by the Reds at Turner Field. Marquis has won three of his past four starts against his former team, including May 2 at Turner Field, when he outpitched Stults. Marquis gave up three homers in an 8-2 loss to the White Sox his last time out.
