The Atlanta Braves completed their final road trip of the regular season, going 7-3 and finishing with a 46-35 away record. The magic number to clinch another division title is now down to five.
"It's unbelievable," 92.9 The Game Braves reporter Joe Patrick told the Midday Show. "I just kind of feel dumbstruck at the position that this team is in, considering everything that's happened this year."
The Braves will be back home for the last six games of the season against National League East foes with the Philadelphia Phillies series on Tuesday and the New York Mets over the weekend.
"It's just amazing to think about where this team is, the fact that they basically need to win three games of their next six...it's an absolutely unbelievable job what everybody has done in that clubhouse, including (manager) Brian Snitker."
"Alex Anthopoulos has put together a team that has gone 39-27 in the second half of the season without your big-time MVP candidate in Ronald Acuna Jr. Just what an impressive run of games by this team since the All-Star break."
