ATLANTA (Interstat) — With rain in the forecast and the temperature at 75 degrees, the New York Mets face the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday at Truist Park in Sandy Springs, Georgia.

The Mets (53-68) will try to bounce back from a 4-0 loss to Atlanta on Tuesday in the opener of this series. New York has listed Tyler Mahle (3-9) as its probable starter, with Zac Thornton (3-2) also listed as a probable pitcher. Mahle has struggled this season, while Thornton has provided a dependable option on the mound.

Atlanta (72-48) has the stronger record and enters the game as the favorite. The interstat game simulator projects a 7-5 Braves victory, and Interstat’s ELO system gives Atlanta a 61.30 percent probability of winning. Atlanta is a 1.5-run favorite on the run line, and the over/under is set at 8.5.

The Mets have had the better of the season series, winning six of the teams’ 10 meetings, but the Braves took the most recent matchup. Atlanta won 4-0 on Tuesday behind a strong pitching performance from Martín Pérez, who threw six scoreless innings and allowed four hits while striking out two. Over his last five appearances, Pérez has allowed three earned runs in 25 innings, making him a key player to watch for the Braves.

For the Mets, Nolan McLean is a player to watch. McLean started Tuesday’s game against Atlanta and allowed one earned run over six innings, striking out three while taking the loss. In his past five starts, he has pitched to a 3.07 ERA, with 34 strikeouts in 29 1/3 innings. McLean has been one of New York’s most consistent pitchers during a difficult stretch for the Mets.

The Mets are coming off a 0-4 loss and have shown inconsistency recently, mixing wins against Pittsburgh and Cleveland with shutout losses. The Braves, meanwhile, have won seven of their last 10 games and continue to play like one of the National League’s best teams.

Both teams have quick turnarounds after Wednesday. The Mets will return home for a series against Washington on Friday, while Atlanta will host Arizona on Friday.

The game is scheduled for Wednesday night at Truist Park, with first pitch expected under rainy conditions. The forecast calls for wet weather throughout the evening, which could affect both pitchers and field conditions.
