The Morning After Box
The Braves are now…
- 6-1, best NL record
- 24th in walks
- 4th in fewest offensive strikeouts (1st in the NL)
- 5th in NL OBP
- 4th in NL batting average, yet
- 12th in Runs scored (overall). Still, that’s a good place to be.
- The pitching is easily #1 in the majors in ERA (1.86). The Mets are 5th, by the way – which essentially explains their victory on Sunday… and puts us in awe of Bartolo Colon.
