The visiting Atlanta Braves will turn to right-hander Bryce Elder against the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday afternoon in the rubber game of the series between National League division leaders.
Elder will be opposed by veteran right-hander Julio Teheran , making his first start against Atlanta, where he pitched his first nine seasons.
Austin Riley accounted for all the Braves runs with a three-run homer, his 22nd homer and sixth in the past five games. Atlanta loaded the bases in the ninth on a single and a pair of two-out walks, but Devin Williams struck out Ozzie Albies for his 25th save, third best in the National League. Brewers relievers tossed three more shutout innings Saturday to extend their streak to 27 2/3 consecutive scoreless innings over the past nine games.
Riley's five straight games with a home run matches the franchise record accomplished by nine other players, the last by Ronald Acuna Jr. in 2018. Over the past five games, Riley is batting .476 with six homers and 16 RBIs.
