Their most recent outing saw them overpowering Miami once more with a 6-2 victory. This time around, they improved further by amassing fourteen hits which translated into six runs. The team's batting average (.341) and slugging percentage (.585) from this game underscored their offensive potency.


What This Means for The Upcoming Game


The trend is clear: Atlanta's batters are finding their rhythm at crucial moments, turning opportunities into tangible outcomes on the scoreboard. With an average batting performance improving across these games and pitchers effectively keeping opponents' scores low, confidence within the camp must be high.
