Yates got out of that bind well.

You have got to be kidding me.

 

[smoltz]

Gosh. Lets get some runs now. First blown save for the bullpen.

 

[smoltz]

Sweet. Braves coming back. 7-6 now.

8-6

8-6

and of course, now the Cubs are threatening.

 

[smoltz]

Way to get out of the inning

 

[Vercingetorix]

That was a really nice double play for all three guys.

I've got to say, I've been pleasantly surprised by how Johnson has handled second base so far. I wasn't thrilled with the move when it was announced, but thus far it's working out pretty well.

 

[smoltz]

Braves win a good one. They are now in double digit wins.

 

[freak]

That was a great game to watch and a great win for the Braves. Johnson continued his hot hitting.

 

[freak]

The Mets killed Florida 9-2 so the Braves still lead by 1/2 game.
