Written by Jonathan on May 6, 2011 – 6:00 pmThe Braves lead the NL in ERA (2.94). Not far behind are the Phillies with a 3.03 ERA.
The Braves have scored 4.2 runs per game thus far. The Phillies… 4.6 per game.
The Braves run differential is +38 (third-best in baseball). The Phillies differential… +41 (second-best)
