Game Thread: Phillies at Braves 7/28/16

Surely we can sweep the Braves, right?

Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports

Phillies at Braves

Turner Field

7:10PM EDT on CSN

Aaron Nola (5-9) 4.75 ERA

PHILLIES: Nola’s interesting season continues. He looked like an All-Star early in the season, but he is 0-5 with a 10.61 ERA in his last seven starts. Command has been the issue, particularly keeping the ball down in the strike zone.

Matt Wisler (4-10) 4.92 ERA

BRAVES: Wisler's usually reliable slider has hurt him during the big innings that have tainted his past two starts. His changeup was effective as he used it more frequently on Sunday. Maintaining aggression has been an issue for the young hurler.
