Braves Power Surge Against Mets | MLB News

The Braves are on the brink of redemption as they face off against the Mets in a high-stakes, nationally televised showdown on Independence Day — the 250th anniversary of America’s founding. After a rough June, Atlanta finally found their power stroke Friday, and now they’ve got another shot to get back on track with Chris Sale on the mound against Sean Manaea. Sale’s been dominant all year, but Atlanta’s offense has struggled to support him — especially since May. With Manaea, a solid but inconsistent pitcher who’s leaned on luck to avoid homers, the Braves need to break through. If they don’t, Sale might just have to pitch so well he scores a run himself. Game time: 8:08 PM ET at Truist Park. Tune in on FOX, MLB.tv, or radio on 680 AM and 93.7 FM The Fan.
