But the Braves are the better team here and have Chris Sale on the mound who is 7-3 with a 1.89 ERA, with the team winning seven of his 10 starts this season. Over his last three starts, the LH sports a 1.35 ERA. He has allowed just one run or fewer in eight of his 10 starts. And in 12 career appearances (seven starts) against Boston, Sale is 4-1 with a 1.89 ERA. The Red Sox will counter with Payton Tolle who is 2-2 with a 2.45 ERA. Over his last three starts, the LH is 1-1 with a 2.84 ERA. Tolle did win his lone career appearance against Atlanta on May 16, but he is 0-1 when on the hill at home. Like I said earlier, the Braves are the better team here. They are also exceptional strong away from home, boasting a 20-9 road record. Meanwhile the Red Sox struggle at home this season, sporting a 9-18 record at Fenway Park. With Sale pitching at an elite level and the Braves dominating on the road, they take Game 3. Play Atlanta.

Las Vegas Aces Above the Rim Game 601 5:00 pm pst/8:00 pm est Both the Dallas Wings (4-3) and Las Vegas Aces (4-2) have been playing some good ball this season. But the Aces have dominated the Wings, taking five straight meetings, and nine of the last 10 head-to-head matchups. Despite playing on the road, Las Vegas is a perfect 4-0 this season away from home, while the Dallas is just 1-2 at home in 2026.
