Can anyone stop the Braves?

The Braves are on a 13 game winning streak and they are tied with the Pirates with the best record in the MLB. Right now, they appear to be unstoppable and in the NL East division, they are fifteen and a half games ahead of the second place Nationals.

That's a hell of a lead.

Back in the American League, the Red Sox are now two and a half games ahead of the Rays in the AL East and 1 game ahead of the Tigers in the AL. If they keep playing the way they are playing, they should be able to hold on to the top slot.

Tonight they are in Kansas to play the Royals and Lester is pitching. He hasn't been having the best time of it in his last two starts but then again, the Royals haven't been playing all the great. Hopefully he can hold up for 6 or 7 innings and the Red Sox walk away with a win.
