Philadelphia Phillies 9, Atlanta Braves 4

Atlanta leads the NL East by six games and has won six of its last 10 while Philadelphia has dropped seven of 10, scoring just 3.50 per game in that span. The relief gap is the clearest separator: Atlanta at 3.33 with a 1.19 WHIP, Philadelphia at 4.31 and 1.33 — and the Phillies have already used nine relievers for 11.1 innings over the last three days. Grant Holmes takes a 3.46 ERA into the start, though his 4.60 FIP suggests the results have outrun the process, and he has averaged 4.2 innings per outing recently. Andrew Painter's 5.71 ERA sits above his own 4.78 FIP, and he has gone six innings per start over his last five, the longer of the two.
