Atlanta has dominated the first two games of the series winning by a combined 16-3 score after its 5-0 shutout victory on Tuesday night when the Yankees managed only one hit and they now are 12-22 since July 4 and 25-32 on the road this year and they have lost 20 of their past 27 road games. The Braves are 39-20 at home and they have won seven of their past nine games with a combined score 75-31 over that span. Charlie Morton is 11-10 with a 3.71 ERA and he comes off five shutout innings on three hits in a 7-0 victory over the Mets on Friday. Randy Vasquez is scheduled to make just his fourth start of the season and he gave up two runs in 3 2/3 innings in a relief role against Miami on Friday. New York is 30-46 versus teams with winning records in the second half of the past two seasons and the Yankees are fading fast again. Take the Braves as a Max Play.
