The Atlanta Braves will attempt to even the series at 1-1 on Saturday as they lock horns with the Boston Red Sox in Saturday’s Game 2 at Truist Park.
The Braves’ offense let the team down again on Friday, scoring only one run through nine innings of baseball against the Red Sox. Over the last five games, Atlanta has generated 3.4 runs per game and pitched a respectable 3.56 ERA. Atlanta is four games below .500 with a 26-30 record, currently in 4th place in the National League East.
The Red Sox snapped a five-game skid behind stellar pitching from starter Lucas Giolito and their relief pitchers. Giolito allowed one earned run over 4.2 innings while Garret Whitlock secured the win after blanking the Braves between the 5th and 6th innings.

Our Boston Red Sox vs Atlanta Braves Prediction
Why you should bet on the UNDER 8.5 Runs: Over the last 3 meetings between the Red Sox and the Braves, these teams have combined for 11 runs per game. However, in their last match, the total went UNDER as the Red Sox and Braves combined for only 6 runs. The prospect of a low-scoring game increased significantly after they announced their starter for Saturday. Red Sox’s Walker Buehler (2.84 ERA) will duel with Spencer Schwellenbach (4.11 ERA). These two pitchers can dominate on any given day and are both coming off solid starts, during which they surrendered two earned runs.
