This offensive prowess was highlighted by hitting 13 times and scoring 10 runs. Their ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities was evident as they hit .417 with runners in scoring position (RISP), showcasing clutch performances that could be pivotal against the Phillies.

Pitching has also been a strong suit for the Braves, with an overall ERA (Earned Run Average) of 4.00 from both starters and relievers combined in their last outing. The bullpen held its own despite being under pressure, indicating resilience that will be crucial in tight situations.
