The Diamondbacks have another tough test for the offense against Charlie Morton and the Braves as they try to get a much-needed victory.
The Arizona Diamondbacks take on the Atlanta Braves for game three of their four game series. First pitch is at 6:40 PM, local AZ time. The D-backs are coming off a rough loss to the Braves after getting a tough outing from Zac Gallen and another lackluster showing by the offense.
The Diamondbacks are looking to split the four-game series with Atlanta and get their first win against them this year. So far, the Braves are 5-0 against Arizona. This win is critical to maintain Arizona's place in the standings and continue to push momentum towards buying and not selling at the Trade Deadline.Cecconi has been a tad unlucky so far with the results he's gotten. His FIP being nearly two runs lower speaks to that and the lack of walks with just 12.
After allowing just one run over the first three innings, he gave up four runs in the fourth inning and failed to escape the fifth inning. Over his last five starts, he has a 4.13 ERA, but he has alternated between good and bad outings. In three games, he's allowed at least four runs. In the other two combined, he allowed just one run over 12.1 innings.
