The Braves are going to win the NL East. It's only a matter of time before they officially clinch. As of Wednesday morning the magic number is at three.
They have a shot at 100 wins, Ronald Acuna Jr. has a chance for a historic 40/40 season, they could clinch at home against the Phillies, and they're awaiting the return of Ender Inciarte.
"For him to be that close, it has to be sticking in his head, I would rather be a part of that," says Hugh. "100 wins is nice, but doing 40/40 is something where history is concerned"
Ronald Acuña Jr. 40-40 watch: He just stole second base. He now has 39 HRs & 37 SB on the season.

September 18, 2019 "Clinching at home against the Phillies is something I would like to see them do," says Fricke. "It would be kinda cool to celebrate on the field against the Phillies. It's a full-circle moment after that first three-game set."
