Pitching Match-Up
Atlanta.: Mike Foltynewicz (1-1 2.53 ERA)
Cincinnati: Sal Romano (0-2 5.75 ERA)
In Foltynewicz’s last start he had a good one giving up one earned run on four hits over six frames, but got little help from the offense in a 5-1 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. The Braves have lost three of his four starts this season even though he has not given up more than two earned runs in any of the four outings. In three career starts facing the Reds, Foltynewicz is 1-0 with a nifty 1.93 earned run average. The Braves have lost 10 of his last 11 starts including his last six road starts.
In Romano’s last start he pitched well giving up two earned runs over five innings, but he took the loss with the Reds offense getting just three hits and zero runs. Cincinnati has lost three of his four starts this season, including his last two, and in the four outings, he has totaled 20 innings pitched with 13 earned runs allowed. Romano only has one career start against the Braves where he picked up a win going seven innings and gave one run on a homer.
