Jon Lieber has been a Braves killer in Atlanta recently. Play Philadelphia tonight with Lieber on the mound when the Phils travel to Georgia to meet the Braves.
Phillies starter Jon Lieber has solid form history against the Braves and is 3-0 with a 2.66 ERA in his last three starts in Atlanta.
Philadelphia has slowly started to turn things around following a rough start to the 2007 season. Lieber was moved from the bullpen to the rotation almost two weeks ago and has responded with a couple of strong starts, allowing just two runs in nearly 12 innings while striking out 10 and walking just one. He has fared pretty well in his career versus Chipper Jones, Andruw Jones and Jeff Francoeur, limiting Atlanta's big bats to a .224 average.
Look for more of the same here from Lieber this evening.
