Atlanta's Reynaldo Lopez is a ground ball pitcher with that slider, he is good at what he does. His problems all go away after the first inning. He generally has been a pitcher who takes a little while to establish command.


Pittsburgh has struggled to score 5 or more runs. Playing a team that lights up runs like Atlanta has, isn't ideal. Pittsburgh's Oneil Cruz has not been as effective at the plate since mid May.


Atlanta Braves win!
