Major-league strikeout leader Spencer Strider goes for his eighth straight win on Saturday when the Atlanta Braves host the Chicago White Sox in the second game of a three-game set.
The Braves won the series opener 9-0 on Friday and improved to 7-0 all-time against the White Sox in Atlanta. The Braves have won 13 of their past 15 games. Chicago has lost six of its past seven.
Strider (11-2, 3.44 ERA) will be opposed by veteran Lance Lynn (5-8, 6.03) in a match between two right-handers who rely heavily on strikeouts.
