The Atlanta Braves and Los Angeles Angels decide their 3-game series on Wednesday afternoon in a getaway-day matinee
The Atlanta Braves (7-5) stopped a three-game losing streak on Tuesday night while ending the three-game winning run of the Los Angeles Angels (6-6), setting up a series-deciding matchup on Wednesday afternoon at Angel Stadium in Anaheim. Mike Trout went 1-for-5 on Tuesday night as he returned to the Angels lineup after missing the first game of the series with a bruised hand. The game on Tuesday was marked by a benches-clearing dustup featuring Los Angeles designated hitter Jorge Soler and Braves starter Reynaldo López trading haymakers after a high, inside pitch in the fifth inning.
