Game 2 between the Atlanta Braves and Miami Marlins ended in a 2-1 victory for the Braves. The Braves lead the three-game series 2-0. The third and final game starts on Sunday afternoon, and the home team will look to finish in style.
"Happy Saturday" - Braves
Truist Park has seen it all. Their team is certainly one of the best in the league and the most balanced. The 2021 World Series champion Braves are having another terrific season. They currently sit second in the National League East, but there is nothing to worry about. Only the New York Mets are ahead of them.
The Marlins' journey, on the other hand, is going downhill. Representing the same division as the Braves, Miami has not been able to live up to expectations. Fourth in the division, at a 55-77 record, is not good enough. Alongside the Washington Nationals, the Marlins are the worst performers in the NL East. They have the worst current losing streak at 2-8.
"Final" - Marlins
This is a clear opportunity for the Braves to sweep the series. They are simply better than the Marlins on all fronts. Game 1 was a display of ruthlessness, beating Miami 8-1. However, Game 2 was not what Atlanta expected. Even though they won the game, it was not an easy win. Atlanta will look to repeat their performance from Game 1 in Game 3.
