Braves square off against the resurgent Phillies in a pivotal division clash

Someone’s six game win streak will be snapped when the red-hot Braves take on the equally-hot Phillies at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday night. The Phillies got off to a slow start, just like last season, but they have come to life in June, going 13-4 to start the month. Despite this, they have not made up any ground on the Braves in the division due to the fact that Atlanta has been ever better, sporting a 13-3 record in June. The Braves have actually gained two games on the Phillies over the last 20 both have played, and have a similar two-game advantage over the last 30 games as well.
