Predicted Outcome

Expect a tight, back-and-forth contest, but the Atlanta Braves pull away late. Their lineup—anchored by Ronald Acuña Jr. (1.000 OPS, 34 HR, .310 avg) and Freddie Freeman (.920 OPS)—should exploit the hitter-friendly conditions and home park edge. The Yankees, despite having Max Fried on the mound, may struggle to contain Atlanta’s power. The key will be whether Fried can replicate his Cy Young form (2.38 ERA) away from home. I anticipate a 6–4 Braves win, with over 8.5 combined runs likely given the favorable hitting environment and run-scoring profiles on both sides.
