The Braves are 35-19 at home and 11 1/2 games in first place in the NL East and they are 46-20 following a win this season. Charlie Morton is 10-8 with a 3.57 ERA this season and 3-2 and 2.86 in July. Los Angeles batters are just 11-for-55 with two home runs for a .200 batting average against Morton, including Shohei Ohtani, who ia 0-for-6. The Angels salvaged a game against Toronto after losing the first two and they will go with Griffin Canning and July has been his worst month of the season with a 5.40 ERA and .316 opponent batting average. The Angels are 1-6 in Canning's past seven road starts versus winning teams. Take the Braves as a Max Play.
