 The Braves lost two of three to the Pirates in Pittsburgh last week, but have either won or tied their home series with the Pirates in each of the last three seasons. The Braves' .802 OPS against the Pirates since 2016 is their best mark against any National League opponent.

 In eight games in June, the Braves have 38 extra-base hits, second in MLB (Twins, 41). They have 33 singles, tied for 26th in MLB. Their .811 OPS in June ranks fourth in MLB after their .712 OPS in May ranked 24th in MLB.

 Pittsburgh is 2-6 in June, worst in the National League, and their only two wins this month came against today's opponent. The Pirates have allowed at least one home run in their last 13 games -- there have only been two longer streaks in MLB this season.

 Bryan Reynolds enters this series on a 17-game hitting streak, tied with Anthony Rendon for the longest hitting streak in MLB this season. Andrew McCutchen was the last Pirate with a longer hitting streak (18 games in 2015), and Neil Walker was the last Pirates rookie with a longer streak (18 in 2010).

 Matt Joyce had the game-winning RBI for the Braves in the 12th inning yesterday, and in his six starts this season he has posted a .429/.520/.762 slash line. He had three hits and two walks in the game, his first game reaching base five times since June 17, 2017.

 Ronald Acuna Jr. has homered in three of his last five games and his 10 RBI in June are tied for third in MLB. Acuna has a career 1.204 OPS against the Pirates, his best against any opponent.

HP - Visconti, 1B - Gibson, 2B - Gorman, 3B - Carlson

Rookie starters face off for Braves, Pirates

ATLANTA (AP)  Austin Riley knew he had a good chance to score from first base as soon as Ozzie Albies made contact.
The power-hitting left fielder just didn't know whether he'd get the green light from third base coach Ron Washington.
