<h2>Tuesday's Pitching Match-Up</h2>
<p><a class="advblue" href="https://www.sportsbettingstats.com/mlb/pitcherlog/440796&quot; title="Spencer Strider Pitching Game Stats">Strider</a> is 0/4 on quality starts this season, but he's been pretty good his last three times out. Last Wednesday, he held Washington to two runs and one hit through 5 2/3 innings, with two walks against 11 strikeouts, in an 8-2 Atlanta victory. And over his last three starts, he's allowed just three runs and seven hits through 15 1/3 innings, with eight walks against 24 whiffs.<br />
The Braves are 3-1 with Strider this season, and he can claim some credit for that.<br />
