The Atlanta Braves can complete a sweep of the visiting Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday in the finale of the three-game weekend series between the division leaders.
Atlanta brings hot bats into the finale, having scored a double-digit total of runs in each of the first two wins over Milwaukee. Marcell Ozuna and Ronald Acuna Jr. helped the Braves offensively in Friday's 10-7 win, with Acuna going 2-for-3 and Ozuna 2-for-4.
While the 11 runs surrendered on Saturday were hardly ideal for the Brewers, starting pitcher Julio Teheran lasting five innings despite giving up six first-inning runs prevented Milwaukee from having to go too deep into its bullpen ahead of the finale."Everything affects the next day," Brewers manager Craig Counsell said in his postgame news conference. "There offense is good, period. Their offense puts pressure on you every inning.
Rea is 5-1 in his past six starts that have resulted in decisions, though he didn't factor into the decision in his last three starts. The most recent came July 24 against Cincinnati when he struck out five and allowed two runs -- both earned -- over six innings in a 3-2 Milwaukee win.
