Bryce Elder Aims to Complete Braves Sweep of Tigers Thursday

Bryce Elder is scheduled to take the mound Thursday as the Atlanta Braves look to sweep the Detroit Tigers in a matinee matchup. Elder enters the contest with a 3-1 record and a 1.93 ERA. The focus will be on his ability to avoid giving up home runs and maintain his status among the league's top pitching performers. His outing is considered crucial for the Braves to secure the series sweep against Detroit left-hander Framber Valdez as they look to extend their dominant early-season run.
