 Atlanta has a 4-3 edge against the Phillies this year, including a split of a four-game set in Philadelphia three weeks ago. The Braves have a .626 winning percentage against NL East foes since the start of 2018, second best by a National League team against its own division (Dodgers, .633 vs. NL West).

 The Braves swept a doubleheader from the Yankees at home on Wednesday, 5-1 and 2-1. Atlanta's starters have a 3.27 ERA over the team's last nine games, compared to a 5.84 ERA this year beforehand.

 Philadelphia has an MLB-best +17 run differential in the first inning this season, scoring 24 runs (t-third most in MLB) while allowing just seven (fewest in MLB).

 Bryce Harper has 34 career home runs against the Braves -- his most versus any team, and the most by any MLB player since 2012 against a National League opponent. He's hitting .373 with a 1.214 OPS at home this year, compared to .226 with an .891 OPS on the road.

 Zack Wheeler is the third pitcher in the last 30 years to be undefeated (3-0) with a sub-3.00 ERA (2.76) through his first five starts in a Phillies uniform, joining Cliff Lee (2009) and Jerome Williams (2014).

 Seven different Braves have at least four home runs in 2020, tied with the Blue Jays for the most in baseball. Freddie Freeman's fifth homer of the season in the sixth inning of Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader was the game-winner, and extended his hit streak to 10 games.

HP - Hoberg, 1B - De Jesus, 2B - Ortiz, 3B - Welke
