 The Braves are 10-2 against the Marlins this season, and have won all six meetings in Miami. They also won six straight games in Miami in 2011 and 2015, and haven't had a longer single-season road winning streak over a team since winning seven in a row in Denver over the expansion Rockies in 1993. The Marlins' longest single-season home losing streak to any team is seven to the Phillies in 2009.

 The Braves' Freddie Freeman is batting .340 with three homers, five doubles, nine RBI and seven runs against the Marlins this season. Since 2016, Freeman has a .358/.452/.642 slash line against the Marlins with 88 hits -- the third-most by a batter against a single team in that span.

 The Braves' Ronald Acuna Jr. hit his 29th homer of the season Wednesday, giving him four home runs in his last six games and 55 in his career. At 21 years and 232 days old, he is the third-youngest to 55 homers behind Mel Ott and Tony Conigliaro.

 Atlanta enters this one after scoring 12 and 11 runs to take the final two games in its series in Minnesota. The Braves have scored at least 10 runs in an NL-high 15 games, and on three occasions in back-to-back games. They had double-digit scoring efforts in successive games three times in their previous 10 seasons combined.

 The Marlins are mired in a six-game losing streak, and have allowed at least five runs in all six games -- their longest such streak since last August. They haven't had a longer streak of permitting at least five runs in consecutive games since an eight-game stretch in July 2005.

 The Marlins' Brian Anderson hit his 18th homer Wednesday, giving him five in his last 11 games. Anderson, who had just two homers in his previous 22 contests, is batting .114 (4-for-35) with a double as his only extra-base hit in 12 games against the Braves in 2019. His .143 slugging percentage vs. Atlanta is the third-lowest by any hitter against any team this year with a minimum of 40 PAs.
