If you look at the Padres vs Atlanta Braves match player stats this week you will notice that the Braves played really well at every level and their win was well deserved. So let us take a look at the stats of both teams, but before we do that here is a brief overview of both teams.
Among the two teams, it is the Atlanta Braves who is more well known and has the best record, both in this season and overall, throughout history, but when they play the San Diego Padres, we cannot dismiss the Padres so easily, so let us take a look at both these teams.
Atlanta Braves are based out of Atlanta Georgia and the team was created almost a century and a half ago in 1871. If being a continuously operational team for such a long time wasn’t a feat in itself, you should look at the number of World Series Titles it has won which stands at 4, with the last one being in 2021.
Despite being founded in 1969 and being over 50 years old, the San Diego Padres is brand new compared to the Atlanta Braves and this is reflected in their record too, both in this season as seen from the Padres vs Atlanta Braves match player stats and also overall as they have never won a World Series Title.
Now if we look at the last match played on the 21st of July, we see that Atlanta Braves won the match 6-3. Despite the large score difference, it was an exciting match and the Padres put up a stiff resistance against the Braves. Here is a brief overview of the player stats of both sides in the match.
On the batting side, during the entire match, only 2 home runs were scored by the Braves and both were scored by Travis d'Arnaud who got 4 runs for his team. It was then Ozzie Albies who scored a double, adding one more point for his team.
On the pitching side, it was Chris Sale who turned out to be the MVP as he got 4 strikeout and only let the Padres score 1 run on 4 hits in a total of 5 innings that he pitched.
For the Padres the game did not go so well on their batting side, it was Luis Campusano who was the only highlight of the match as he scored the only home run for his team and also managed to get 2 RBIs. Out of 9 hits for the Padres the team was able to get only 3 measly runs.
On the pitching side as well, they didn’t fare any better and we saw an overall poor performance from the team with Randy Vasquez struggling to play, as he allowed 2 run on 4 hits in a total of 5 innings.
