- Analysis
- The Diamondbacks are coming into this game with a 28-31 record this season and they have been playing in some high scoring games recently. They are coming off of a 3-1 win against the Nats in their last game, but they have seen 11+ runs total in 4 of their last 5 games and their offense has been on fire in these. They have scored at least 7 runs in 2 of their last 3 as well as scoring at least 6 runs in 3 of their last 5 games, but their pitching has also been awful as they have allowed at least 9 runs in 4 of their last 5 games. They are going up against a Braves team that is 27-31 this season and they have not been playing in high scoring games recently, but they just lost 2 of the 3 games in their last series against the Red Sox and they are going to be hungry to bounce back at home with their opponent having a much weaker pitching staff. Zac Gallen is starting for the Diamondbacks in this game and he is 3-7 with a 5.54 ERA this season. He has been awful in his recent starts as he just allowed 6 earned runs in 5 innings in his last start and has allowed at least 4 earned runs in each of his last 4 starts. He has also allowed at least 4 earned runs in 2 of his last 3 road starts. He has not been bad against the Braves in his career, but his last 2 starts have not been great as he has allowed 8 runs in 10 innings over the last 2 seasons, including a start which he allowed 3 earned runs in 5 innings against them earlier this season. Spencer Strider is starting for the Braves in this game and he is 0-3 with a 4.50 ERA this season. He has only had 3 starts this season and has not been bad in them, but he has not been great either and is still battling back from an injury. This will be his 1st home start of the season, but he was not pitching well there in his last few starts at home before getting injured. He has also struggled in his 4 career starts against the Diamondbacks as he is 1-1 with a 6.20 ERA against them, allowing 5 earned runs in 4 innings against them last season. The Diamondbacks have a very good offense that has been scoring a lot recently so they are going to put up runs in this game, but the Braves are also going to fight hard to bounce back as they have been digging themselves out of a hole all season. Between these two sides, there will be enough runs in this game to push it over the total.
