It was the kind of performance that Braves’ manager Brian Snitker was accustomed to seeing in the first half of the 2023 season. Such outings for Bryce Elder haven’t been as commonplace since the All-Star break, making Tuesday’s performance all the more important.</p><p>Elder surrendered just one hit and three walks in seven shutout innings. The right-hander <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/yankees-news-new-york-makes-ugly-franchise-history-not-seen-since-1995-after-loss-to-braves" rel="noopener">struck out nine Yankees</a> en route to his ninth victory of the season. In his first 17 starts of the 2023 season, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/braves-news-brian-snitker-bryce-elder-all-star-game" rel="noopener">the Braves’ starter led</a> the National League with a 2.45 ERA. Before Atlanta defeated New York, Elder <a href="https://www.mlb.com/braves/news/bryce-elder-leads-one-hit-shutout-of-yankees">had a 7.94 ERA</a> in his previous six starts.</p><p>“I told [Elder], ‘You look like your old self again,’” Snitker said, via MLB.com. “Good for him to fight through things and have a game like that.”</p><p>In the first three months of the season, Elder gave up more than four runs in only one start. Since July 9, he’s allowed at least five runs in four starts.</p><p>“When you throw a couple of good innings and then throw a couple of bad innings, I don’t want to say it affects my confidence,” Elder said. “It creates a little doubt at times. This week, I said, ‘Forget it. I’m just going to go back to just making one pitch at a time. Whatever the result is, I can live with it, if I’m focused on one pitch at a time.’”</p><p>Elder pitched 54 innings as a rookie last season. He will soon triple that number in 2023.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

After beating the Cleveland Guardians in a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/braves-vs-guardians-prediction-odds-pick-how-to-watch-7-3-2023" rel="noopener">series opener on Monday</a> on the road, 4-2, the Braves have managed to extend their unbeaten streak to nine games. They have also won 17 of their last 18 games. If Atlanta feels unstoppable, it is because that’s how things have been for the Braves for the last several days, thanks in large part to their scorching offense.</p><p>Braves pitcher Bryce Elder, who <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/braves-news-brian-snitker-bryce-elder-all-star-game" rel="noopener">got the win</a> in the Guardians game, spoke about how “fun” it is to be <a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/bryce-elder-s-strong-start-fuels-braves-9th-consecutive-win?partnerID=mlbapp-iOS_article-share" rel="noopener">part of the high-scoring</a> Atlanta roster.</p><p>Via Mark Bowman of MLB.com:</p><p><i>“This is the best lineup I’ve seen, maybe ever,” Elder said. “I was a Rangers fan growing up and I watched that 2011 Rangers lineup. That was probably the best lineup I’ve ever seen until maybe this one. So, to be able to do what these guys do everyday, it’s a lot of fun.”</i></p><p>Elder and the Braves pitching staff are a huge benefactor of the team’s elite performance at the plate. Braves starters collectively get an average of 6.56 runs per nine innings — the second-highest in the big leagues, thus far. Only the Tampa Bay Rays (6.85) have a higher average.</p><p>Over their last 20 games, the Braves have gone 17-3 with a .296 batting average, .361 on-base percentage, and .588 slugging percentage to go with 54 home runs and 137 RBIs.</p><p>Ronald Acuna is leading the team with an excellent batting line of .335/.413/.599 to go with 21 home runs and 54 RBIs, while Matt Olson isn’t too shabby with a slash line of .250/.354/.571 along with 28 homers and 68 RBIs.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
