Breaking News: Braves’ Key Players Return for Series Finale Against New York

Max Fried will pitch on Sunday as the Atlanta Braves aim to clinch a series victory against the New York Yankees. Nestor Cortes, a left-hander, will start for the Yankees.

Sean Murphy and Adam Duvall are back in the lineup for Sunday’s game. Murphy, who had two hits in the previous game and six in his last two outings, returns.

 

Duvall, despite recent struggles at bat, boasts a 160 wRC+ against left-handed pitchers this season, explaining his return to the lineup. Ramon Laureano will start in right field and bat eighth.

Giancarlo Stanton has been placed on the injured list due to a strained hamstring ahead of Sunday’s game. Consequently, Aaron Judge will serve as the designated hitter. Trent Grisham, who hit a home run on Saturday, will start in center field and bat ninth.

 

The game is scheduled to start at 1:35 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on Bally Sports Southeast.
