Both of these teams are red hot right now, but Atlanta is at home, with the better pitcher. Cliff Lee has been very good this season, posting a 14-11 mark and 3.00 ERA. But, it's Tommy Hanson who has been the better pitcher. Hanson is 10-3 with a 2.65 ERA. Over his last three starts, he's gone 20 innings posting 20 strikeouts and allowing just 10 hits and one earned run! Atlanta has bombed LHP all season long, putting 5.3 runs per game vs. southpaws. The Braves are 47-34 this season vs. winning teams. I like the Braves at home here.
