Luke Williams starting at shortstop for Braves in Game 2 against Cardinals


Bryce Elder will be on the mound as the Atlanta Braves go for a series win and a doubleheader sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals. Atlanta took the early game by a score of 6-2. Left-hander Matthew Liberatore will start the second game for the Cardinals in what will likely be a bullpen game.

Travis d’Arnaud is in the lineup for the night cap and will hit sixth. Adam Duvall will make his first start of the season in left field and will hit seventh. Luke Williams will start at shortstop in place of Orlando Arcia and is batting ninth.

For the Cardinals, Willson Contreras will serve as the DH and bat third after catching the first game. Pedro Pages will be behind the plate and will hit eighth.

First pitch is scheduled for 7:15 p.m. ET and can be seen on Bally Sports South.
