Reynaldo López looks to propel Braves to a sweep. The Atlanta Braves are taking on the Rockies looking for a sweep after struggling against them in early August where they lost two of three, while surrendering twenty-three runs during that span.
This series, the Braves’ pitching has come through only allowing two total runs through two games. Reynaldo López is taking the mound for the Braves with his sterling 2.00 ERA over 121.2 innings pitched. He could possibly have his ERA drop below 2.00 at some point during the game.
Although Reynaldo López is nineteen innings short of being a qualified starter it is fun to point out that only five qualified SPs have ended their season with an ERA below 2.00 in the past ten years if you do not include 2020 (eight SPs if you do).
First pitch is at 7:20 ET.
