Wednesday’s game: Braves vs. Marlins

By Carroll Rogers Walton
April 14, 2015

Where: at Turner Field, Atlanta

When: 12:10 p.m.

TV/Radio: SPSO/680, 93.7, 106.7

Probable starting pitchers: Braves LH Eric Stults (0-0, 5.40) vs. RH Dan Haren (0-0, 1.50)

What's new: Haren has limited the Braves to only four earned runs in 20 innings in his past three starts against the Braves over the past two seasons with both the Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Dodgers. He is 6-2 with a 4.50 ERA in 10 starts against the Braves overall. Kelly Johnson and A.J. Pierzynski could find their way into the lineup Wednesday for the day-game-after-the-night-game start and also because of their success against Haren. Johnson is 6-for-14 (.429) and five of those hits were doubles. Pierzynski is 5-for-16 (.313) against him.
