The Atlanta Braves have a slim one-game lead over the St. Louis Cardinals for the wildcard spot in the NL. They will go to battle tonight at home vs. the Phillies with Randall Delgado on the mound. Delgado has made six starts down the stretch for the Braves with an impressive 2.70 ERA and has pitched Atlanta to a 4-2 mark. Cliff Lee has pitched brilliantly down the stretch for the Phillies, but he did lose his last start when he allowed 11 hits in 7+ innings vs. the Nationals. The Phillies have played lethargic baseball after clinching, and have been no-shows on their way to a 1-8 mark in their last nine games. The Braves have been at their best against left-hand pitching where they are 8-1 in their last nine. Atlanta gets the call.
