3 Immediate Changes the Phillies Must Make for Game 3 vs Braves

3. Get After the Braves' Pitchers Early

With no Charlie Morton and the Braves playing coy about their pitcher for Game 3, there's one thing that's clear: the Philly offense needs to get aggressive early.

This lineup is at its best when its in attack mode, and we've seen through the postseason that these guys can do some real damage when they're playing fast and loose early in games.

That may inspire the Braves to go with an opener ahead of using one of their youngsters to eat up innings, trying to halt some early momentum.

But whatever approach Brian Snitker takes, the Phillies need to be aggressive early to set the tone.

The fans at Citizen's Bank Park will be ready to explode right from the opening pitch, and getting some early momentum will the fans in a frenzy all night, making it clear to the Braves why this is one of the toughest road environments in all of baseball.

With these three adjustments, the Phillies could make Game 3 a lopsided one, setting the tone for the rest of the series and punching their ticket to the ALCS.
