Game Thread 9/7: Braves at Phillies

The Braves and Phillies get together in the series opener, and you should spend Labor Day with us.

By Brad Rowland

The Atlanta Braves have lost 12 (yes, 12) consecutive games, but the opponent on this fine Labor Day isn't exactly dominating the competition. The Philadelphia Phillies will play host to Atlanta for three games this week, and the series opener is, essentially, for the title of "worst team in MLB".

Let's do this together.
