NY Yankees vs Atlanta Braves Prediction

The Yankees and Braves are going to be involved in a low scoring Game. Nestor Cortes and Max Fried have been lights out this season and both are going to lockdown here. In Fried’s last start he gave up only one run, Nestor Cortes dominated the last start also and he’s going to really dominate here. Neither team is going to reach three runs and this Game is going to stay under the total.
