Phillies at Braves Prediction 4/17/18

The Braves starter Mike Foltynewicz has allowed three or fewer runs per game in seven consecutive starts dating back to last season, but rarely gets run support with the team losing nine of previous ten starts. The exact opposite is true for Phillies starter Nick Pivetta with Philadelphia winning nine of last ten. Pivetta also has been strong against the Braves holding them to a combined seven runs over 21 innings pitched in the previous two seasons. I’ll take my shot on the road team that has proven it can score consistently tallying four or greater runs in seven of their last ten and five of Pivetta’s last six.
