Rivalry weekend continues when the Boston Red Sox host the Atlanta Braves for Game 2 of this weekend series on Saturday.

This might not seem the most natural rivalry on paper but the Boston Red Sox and Atlanta Braves shared the same city until 1952. That was the last year the Braves were in Boston until they moved to Milwaukee. These clubs are pretty evenly matched as Atlanta only has won more victory in the win column over Boston after beating the Red Sox on Friday in the opener 4-2. Boston is trying to avoid losing five games in a row tonight. Meanwhile, the Braves are going for their third straight win. Both teams are sitting five games back of first place in their respective divisions. The Red Sox will be the -125 favorites to tie this series at home tonight. This series will shift to Atlanta at the end of the month.

Chris Sale was dominant against his former team winning the opener to improve to 2-3. The veteran ace went seven innings while giving up five hits and only one run while striking out eight batters. Atlanta was up 2-0 until the seventh inning after Matt Olson and Sean Murphy hit back-to-back homers off Boston starter Garrett Crochet in the second. Rob Refsnyder got the Red Sox on the board for the first time in the seventh to get the team within one run. But Boston relief pitching gave up two runs on walks to stifle its comeback attempt even though the Red Sox were debuting their excellent new City Connect uniforms.

The Red Sox will try to get even in this series Saturday when they start Lucas Giolito. The righty is 1-1 with a 5.51 ERA in three starts. The Braves will counter to try and win this series with Grant Holmes. The righty is 2-3 with a 4.14 ERA.
