Braves Rotation on Historic Run, Dominating Division Play
Atlanta's starters have been nearly untouchable since late July, posting a 2.26 ERA over 14 consecutive outings while leading MLB in divisional record.
The Braves hold the best record against divisional opponents in MLB at 24-12. Their starting rotation has not allowed more than three runs in any of the last 14 games, a stretch dating to July 22 that has produced a 2.26 ERA. Austin Riley ranks second among qualified hitters in average exit velocity since the All-Star break at 95.3 mph, trailing only James Wood at 95.5 mph among 258 players with at least 25 balls in play.
