On the mound for Atlanta will be Ervin Santana. He is 1-0 and coming off an eight innings pitched in his first start of the season in a victory over the Mets. Roberto Hernandez will be on the hill for Philly, hoping to get out of the fifth inning for the first time in three starts. He has yet to allow more than three earned runs in either one of his two starts, but Monday he looks to knock of a Phillies team whose offense woke up in their last series.
The Braves were 47-29 against the East in 2013 -- the most intradivision wins by an NL club -- en route to finishing in first place for the first time in eight years, according to ESPN.com.
They won last season's series with the Phillies 11-8 while averaging 4.9 runs per game.
"This is where you can get off to a good start and get off to a good lead," said Freeman, who owns a 1.290 OPS during a nine-game hitting streak with eight RBIs in his last five. He's also driven in 19 runs over his last 25 games versus Philadelphia.
Chase Utley, who has been limited to an average of 105.7 games over the last three seasons due to injuries after five straight All-Star selections, is 20 for 40 with 10 RBIs through as many games. He's hitless in two at-bats against Santana in his career, according to ESPN.com.
"I just see him in really good shape, moving really well on the field defensively and running the bases," manager Ryne Sandberg said. "He's staying so active on the bases. Maybe that shows how well he's feeling. That's (knee problems) a non-issue and he's having quality at-bats and seeing the ball well."
