The Braves and Yankees, both red hot and looking to take over first place in their respective divisions, meet up at Turner Field for a three-game series starting Monday.
Chipper Jones will likely return to the Braves' lineup just in time to host the New York Yankees and pitcher Ivan Nova, who'll face off against Atlanta's Randall Delgado in a battle of young arms. The Braves are 8-2 in their last ten games, and before Sunday's loss at home to the Blue Jays, Atlanta had won six in a row. The Yankees arrive to Turner Field also 8-2 in their last ten games, and only a half-game back of the first place Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East.
Date / Time: Monday, June 11, 7:10 p.m. ET
Location: Turner Field, Atlanta, Georgia
TV: Fox Sports South, Peachtree TV
Radio: WCNN 680, WNNX 100.5, WLBA 1130
