The Braves will square off with the Sacramento A’s for three games this week. With a handful of former A’s on the roster, the Braves are starting four of them on Tuesday night — Matt Olson, Sean Murphy, Jurickson Profar and Nick Allen.
The rest of the lineup remains mostly the same, although Michael Harris is sitting against lefty Jeffrey Springs in favor of Stuart Fairchild. This appears to be a trend now for manager Brian Snitker, who has sat Harris the last two times the club has faced a lefty.

First pitch is a late one at 10:05 p.m. ET. Get that pot of coffee (or other beverage of choice) ready to go.
