The 7:15 PM showdown at Chase Field will be streamed on MLB.TV/FOX, where Bryce Elder (RHP #55) arrives with a pristine 1.75 ERA—so clean it could double‑check your taxes. Across the mound, Michael Soroka (RHP #34) sports a 4.83 ERA that looks like it was calculated on a broken calculator. The Braves’ .269 team average dwarfs the D‑backs’ .209, a batting gap wider than a desert canyon.
Atlanta’s bullpen will have to perform some creative gymnastics without Day‑to‑Day Chris Sale and 15‑day IL Daysbel Hernandez, while Arizona limps along with its own injury list. It’s a classic case of “who can juggle more flaming batons?”—pick your side and jump into the chatter on StreakChat.
