The Atlanta Braves will try to capture their 12th straight series win Saturday evening when they continue a three-game series against the Chicago White Sox. Atlanta got a first inning grand slam from Matt Olson in Friday’s series opener and coasted to a 9-0 win. Spencer Strider will get the start Saturday for the Braves while the White Sox will go with righty Lance Lynn.
Strider entered the All-Star break on a roll and is looking to reinsert himself into the Cy Young Award conversation in the National League. Strider leads the majors in strikeouts and is averaging a ridiculous 14.
