Game Analysis & Prediction
The Diamondbacks enter Game 2 with momentum after securing a 5-3 victory in the series opener. Arizona’s offense came alive, led by Corbin Carroll and Ketel Marte, who have been instrumental in recent games. Merrill Kelly will take the mound, looking to build on his strong performance against Philadelphia.
Atlanta, despite its recent struggles, remains a formidable opponent at home. Chris Sale has been dominant, boasting a 3.06 ERA and coming off a stellar outing against the Phillies. If Sale can replicate his previous performance, the Braves have a strong chance to bounce back.
