Where: Turner Field
When: 7:10 p.m.
TV/Radio: SPSO/680, 93.7, 106.7
Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Shelby Miller (3-1, 2.17) vs. RH Chad Billingsley (0-0, 0.00)
What's new: Billingsley makes his first major league start in two years after undergoing both Tommy John and flexor tendon surgeries. He worked up to 99 pitches in four minor-league rehab appearances while putting up a 4.74 ERA. Look for Jonny Gomes in the Braves lineup. Gomes is 6-for-11 in his career against Billingsley, the former Dodger, including a home run and four RBIs. The Phillies helped jump-start Freddie Freeman at the plate in the series finale at Citizens Bank Park on April 26, when he went 2-for-4 with a pair of opposite-field doubles. Since then, Freeman entered this series with five multi-hit games in his previous eight games. He was hitting .419 (12-for-31) over that time with six doubles.
