After a shutout loss Saturday, the Atlanta Braves will try to get their offense back in gear Sunday when they wrap up a three-game series against the San Francisco Giants. Ian Anderson will get the start for the Braves while the Giants will go with right-hander Anthony DeSclafani.
Brian Snitker will roll out a different lineup for Sunday’s afternoon game. Joc Pederson will be in center field and moves up to the fifth spot in the order. Dansby Swanson drops to sixth while Eddie Rosario will make his first start in a Braves uniform in left and will hit seventh. Stephen Vogt will take over behind the plate for Travis d’Arnaud, who caught the first two games of the series, and will hit eighth.
