Season series: First meeting since the Yankees took 3 of 4 games in 2021
The Yankees have lost 58 games this season and perhaps the worst of those was on Sunday at the Miami Marlins when New York lost 8-7 despite having a 7-1 lead through 7-and-a-half innings.
The Braves failed to close out a 4-game sweep when they lost to the New York Mets 7-6 Sunday night. That game capped off a 6-5 road trip as Atlanta returns to its home yard for the first time since Aug. 2. The club is 6-1 over its last 7 at home, and only the Texas Rangers (40-20) and Los Angeles Dodgers (38-20) have better overall home records than the Braves.
