The Atlanta Braves take on the Philadelphia Phillies Sunday August 30. A line was not yet assigned to this game overnight with the Braves starter undecided (find live odds here). Philadelphia will start Jake Arrieta (R).
Arrieta has won two of his last five starts with four of those resulting in nine or more runs.
Jake Arrieta surrendered one run in five innings before a rain delay ended his night Tuesday in a win over the Nationals.
Prior to that game, Arrieta surrendered four runs over 4 1/3 innings in a loss to the Red Sox. He yielded four runs in the game before that one to the Orioles.
Five of the last six in this series have gone Over 8.5.
Philadelphia has won the last three meetings versus Atlanta, though each team has five wins in their last ten head-to-heads.
Expect a mostly sunny day for this game.
