Atlanta has sunshine and overcast conditions, with rain expected later in the evening, but the game proceeds. The Braves look to build on a walk-off RBI single by Chadwick Tromp in extra innings from the previous game. Tromp returns to the starting lineup for the night game, with Grant Holmes pitching. Mike Yastrzemski and Mauricio Dubón return to the bottom of the batting order. Ronald Acuña Jr. is the only Braves player with an OPS above 1.000 against Nationals pitcher Jake Irvin, while Michael Harris II and Matt Olson have posted OPS above .800. For Washington, James Wood has produced well against Holmes with a 1.666 OPS, while Daylen Lile, Nasim Núñez, and CJ Abrams have limited or no success so far. First pitch is scheduled for 4:10 p.m.
"On the Nationals' side, James Wood is the only player who has produced well against Holmes, averaging a 1.666 OPS against him. Players Daylen Lile and Nasim Nuñez have yet to face the Braves' flame thrower, and through only three at-bats, CJ Abrams hasn't seen success with a .000 OPS. It's going to be a tough matchup with the Nationals' offense exceeding expectations and the Braves continuing to deliver solid pitching performances. Just a few hours away, first pitch is set for 4:10 p.m."
