Gore has pitched well in his last three starts only allowing 2 homeruns and 4 earned runs across those starts. He’s also 4-0 to the Under in his last four starts. He should pitch a good game in this spot. The Braves might struggle to hit the lefty as they haven’t been lighting it up recently. Lopez has been solid on the mound for the Braves and he’s not going to allow much to Washington while his strikeout numbers are high at 26%. He's only allowed two or less runs in his last five starts. Runs should be at a premium in this game as both pitchers should pitch deep. This game should have more of a playoff type feel as the Braves need the win and have been pitching lights out down the stretch. The Under is 44-19-1 in the Braves last 64 versus a team with a losing record. The Under is 7-2 in the Nationals last 9 games versus a right-handed starter. These two have played six of their last eight games to the Under.

Best bet: take the Under the Total.
