 The Braves and Phillies each have six wins in the season series after Atlanta took two of three in Philadelphia at the end of July. In the 12 games, the Braves are averaging 7.42 runs -- the most runs they've ever averaged against a division opponent in the divisional era since 1969. The most runs they've ever averaged against an NL team in a single season is 9.17 in six games against St. Louis in 2006.

 The Braves, who are a victory away from matching last season's win total of 90, have a 2.23 ERA from their starting pitchers in the last 13 games. Their starters have allowed four runs or less in the last 13 games, matching the longest such streak of the season (May 15-28).

 Ozzie Albies had two doubles in Atlanta's weekend series with Washington to give him 39 on the year. Already with 92 runs and 75 RBI, he is just one double away from joining Hall of Famer Rogers Hornsby in 1928 as the franchise's only second basemen with at least 40 doubles, 90 runs and 75 RBI in a season.

 Max Fried, Tuesday's scheduled starter, tossed seven scoreless innings Thursday to beat the Nationals for his 16th win. Fried has won seven consecutive decisions, and no Braves left-handed starter has had a longer stretch in a single season since Mike Hampton won nine straight decisions without a loss in 2003.

 The Phillies have pounded out 33 doubles in their last 12 games, the most in the NL since August 27. In 27 games over the last month to August 9, they are averaging 5.8 runs with a .810 OPS after averaging 4.0 runs with a .705 OPS in their first 25 games coming out of the All-Star break.

 In 23 games since August 11, J.T. Realmuto is batting .337 with eight homers, nine doubles, 22 RBI and 20 runs. He has scored at least one and driven in at least one run in five straight games, the longest stretch by a Phillies catcher in a single season in the live-ball era.

HP - Tumpane, 1B - Barksdale, 2B - Barrett, 3B - Ortiz

The Philadelphia Phillies will look to keep their wild-card hopes alive when they host the National League East-leading Atlanta Braves in the opener of a four-game series on Monday.
Thanks to the Chicago Cubs' 8-5 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, coupled with the Phillies' marathon 10-7 win in New York over the Mets, the Phillies and Brewers are both two games behind the Cubs for the second wild-card spot. The Arizona Diamondbacks, who also lost on Sunday, are in the mix, 1 1/2 games behind the Cubs.
