Max Fried vs. Jacob deGrom


Max Fried likes where the Atlanta Braves stand during this most recent hot streak — and how they competed against Jacob deGrom the NL East-leading New York Mets.

"I think that's a really good team over there," Fried said. "They play really consistent baseball night in and night out, and we know as a club that if we have a chance to win the division we're going to have to come out and give our best foot forward every night." 

Fried outpitched deGrom, ever so slightly, in a matchup of aces and rookie Michael Harris II bounced a go-ahead double in the seventh inning that sent Atlanta over New York 3-2 on Thursday night.
