The Atlanta Braves look to continue their winning streak on Saturday night in Arizona as they take on the Diamondbacks in the third game of a four-game series.
Atlanta has won four in a row, including the first two games of the series against the D'Backs. Through the first two games, the Braves have outscored the Diamondbacks 19-3.
Tommy Hanson will look to even up his record at 2-2 on the young season. On the season, Hanson is 1-2 with a 3.71 ERA and 1.35 WHIP. Hanson has struck out 16 in 17 innings of work on the year.
Joe Saunders gets the start for Arizona. Saunders is 1-0 with a 0.64 ERA and 1.00 WHIP through his first two starts. Saunders has allowed only 10 hits in 14 innings on the season, and has walked four. Saunders has only registered nine strikeouts so far, so expect a lot of balls in play.
First pitch is scheduled for 8:10 p.m. ET. Televised coverage of the game can be found on Peachtree TV. The game will be available on the radio at 100.5 WNNX FM and WCNN 680 AM.
