Where: Turner Field

When: 7:10 p.m.

TV/Radio: SPSO/680, 93.7, 106.7

Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Shelby Miller (5-14, 2.86) vs. LH David Price (15-5, 2.46)

What's new: Just a little more than two weeks ago, the Braves were swept by the Yankees at Turner Field by an aggregate score of 38-11. Now they're contending with the team that entered the series three games up on the Yankees in the American League East and has gone 11-5 against the Yankees head-to-head this season. The Blue Jays might have the best offense in the majors. They certainly have the numbers to make the argument. Entering this series, they led the majors in runs scored (790), home runs (202), on-base percentage (.336) and slugging percentage (453). Miller will do his best to stop them for a second time this season — he held the Blue Jays to two runs in six innings in Toronto for his second win as a Brave on April 19. He's now gone a well-documented 21 starts since he last won a game.
