UP NEXT:
Brewers: RHP Chase Anderson (7-7, 3.81) will pitch for the first time in Atlanta as he makes his fourth career start against the Braves. Anderson received no decision in his last start, Tuesday against San Diego, allowing four runs and five hits in 4 2/3 innings.
Braves: LHP Sean Newcomb (10-5, 3.15 ERA) carried a no-hitter into the ninth inning of his last home start, a 4-1 win over the Dodgers two weeks ago. He is 2-0 with a 1.31 ERA in his last three starts but lost the last time he faced the Brewers, giving up five runs, five hits and four walks in 3 2/3 innings July 8 at Milwaukee.
TRAINER'S ROOM:
Braves manager Brian Snitker confirmed that RHP Anibal Sanchez will start Tuesday at home against Miami despite getting hit by a liner in his last start and leaving a no-decision at Washington after facing seven batters.
LONG SKID:
Atlanta SS Dansby Swanson singled in the seventh but he's 3 for 26 this month and has had his average drop 36 points from June 5 to .238. ... Milwaukee INF Jonathan Schoop grounded out as a pinch-hitter in the seventh and is 5 for 35 since coming over in a trade from Baltimore.
