Lineup, how to watch the Atlanta Braves and Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night

Well, game one of the Braves/Twins series went exactly the way we expected: lots of strikeouts (nineteen combined between the two teams) and a few crucial homeruns, thankfully both coming from Atlanta (Ronald Acuña Jr and Marcell Ozuna).

Tuesday night doesn't appear to be any different, with Bryce Elder and Sonny Gray meeting up in a battle of pitchers with ERAs under three.

It's the usual suspects for Atlanta, with Sean Murphy rotating in for Travis d'Arnaud behind the plate, batting 5th.

Pitching Matchup for the Atlanta Braves and Minnesota Twins on Tuesday, June 27th

Starting for the Atlanta Braves is RHP Bryce Elder. The righty out of the University of Texas leads all of the National League in ERA, at 2.40, and has the best park-adjusted ERA (called ERA+) in all of baseball at 186. He's 5-1 across his fifteen starts, and has struck out seventy-five batters in his ninety innings on the season, walking only twenty-four.

Opposing Atlanta on the mound is Sonny Gray. The 27 year-old has been a revelation for the Twins this season, with a career best 2.98 ERA and one hundred strikeouts in his ninety three and two-thirds innings on the season. He's taken the ball fifteen times and is 8-4 in those starts, with Minnesota winning nine of those contests. He's been a picture of extremes in his last two starts, going seven innings against Detroit with six earned runs in a 7-1 loss on June 16th and then bouncing back with a complete game three-hit shutout of Boston on June 22nd, where he struck out nine with no walks.

Neither of tonight's pitchers has faced the other team, and no hitters in either lineup have faced the opposing pitcher in their careers.
