Where: at Marlins Park, Miami

Time: 7:10 p.m.

TV/radio: FSSO/680, 93.7, 106.7

Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Shelby Miller (10-9, 3.74 ERA in 2014) vs. RH Tom Koehler (10-10, 3.81)

What's new: Miller, who was acquired in November as part of the trade that sent Jason Heyward to St. Louis, makes his debut for the Braves. He is eager to continue the transformation he made late last season with the addition of a two-seam fastball, which helped him to a 5-2 record with a 2.08 ERA over his final seven starts. He's faced the Marlins twice in his career, going 0-1 with a 6.97 ERA (eight earned runs in 10 1/3 innings.) He'll remember the matchups with Giancarlo Stanton, who is 3-for-5 off Miller with two home runs. For the Braves, Chris Johnson has batted 5-for-16 against Koehler, with three RBIs. The Braves went 4-5 at Marlins Park last year and 9-10 against the Marlins overall.
