Lineup, how to watch game two of the Atlanta Braves vs New York Mets series on Wednesday night

That game has EVERYTHING.

Game one of Braves vs Mets was fantastic - a comeback from Atlanta, plenty of chirping, and a new meme ("throw it again!")

And they're just getting started.

A night after Bryce Elder shoved and outplayed Mets starter Carlos Carrasco, the pitching matchups get even better, with Max Scherzer coming to the mound and facing off against fellow veteran Charlie Morton.

Pitching Matchup for the Atlanta Braves vs New York Mets on Wednesday, June 5th

Starting for Atlanta is Charlie Morton. The veteran is 5-6 with a 3.62 ERA in eleven starts this season, continuing his odd trend of having a decision in every outing so far on the season. He's struck out seventy-two in sixty-four and two-thirds innings, with twenty six walks and six homeruns. Since signing with Atlanta for the 2021 season, Morton is 3-3 with a 3.86 ERA in ten starts against the Mets. Several Mets have had decent success against "Uncle Charlie", with Pete Alonso (.286, 3 RBIs), Jeff McNeil (.278, 2 HRs, 3 RBIs), and Daniel Vogelbach (.333, 2 HRs, 4 RBIs).

Opposing the Braves is Max Scherzer. "Mad Max" is 5-2 with a 3.21 ERA in his nine starts on the season, striking out forty-eight in his forty-seven and two-thirds innings. Scherzer is a well-known quantity to Atlanta, having made thirty-one appearances (twenty-nine starts) with a 3.77 ERA and a 13-10 record. There are twelve career homeruns off of Scherzer on the current Braves roster, with the 1st inning trio of Ronald Acuña Jr (2), Matt Olson (1), and Austin Riley (1) combining for four homeruns and seven RBIs.
