Oakland Athletics vs Atlanta Braves Prediction: Braves will not slack here

On Wednesday, MLB action will take place at Oakland Coliseum between the Atlanta Braves and the Oakland Athletics.

In their last three games, the Oakland Athletics have scored a total of 10 runs, but in their last 11 games, they have scored three runs or fewer in 10 of those games. The Athletics have been unsuccessful in winning any of their last 11 games while scoring three runs or fewer. Esteury Ruiz, who has 59 hits and 23 runs batted in, is the Athletics' leading player. Brent Rooker and Shea Langeliers have a combined 78 hits and 56 runs batted in for the team. The Oakland Athletics have a record of 31-72 in their last 103 games played at home and are 19-39 in their last 58 games played during game 3 of a series.

The Atlanta Braves have scored at least four runs in five of their previous ten games, including a total of 14 runs in their most recent three games. When scoring four or more runs in a game, the Braves have won six of their last nine contests. Austin Riley and Ozzie Albies have combined for 110 hits, while Ronald Acuna Jr. leads the Braves with 70 hits and 30 RBI. Ronald Acuna Jr. leads the Braves in both categories. The Braves have a record of 4-1 in their previous five games played on Wednesday, and they have a record of 6-2 in their last 8 games played during game 3 of a series. In the Braves' previous 15 games, the over is 9-4-2.

The Oakland Athletics have won two games in a row. Nevertheless, the Oakland Athletics are on track to become one of baseball's poorest teams ever and the least profitable team for bettors by a wide margin. Even less so with James Kaprielian starting for the Oakland Athletics, the team in which I have little interest. That's why I'm putting my faith in the Atlanta Braves to pull out the victory in this close game.
