April 22, 200719 yr Schoeneweis just looked awful--that might actually be too nice of a word for it. Tied 6-6.

April 22, 200719 yr Author Sorry I missed that. I always enjoy ole Cox getting thrown out. Just something about it that amuses me. He's always willing to stick up for his players. He's one of a kind.. Funny to see him wobbling out of the dugout..lol
April 24, 200719 yr Author Freaking Dontrelle..... The Braves just can't solve this guy. They've had trouble with the Marlins in general over the past couple of years. The Braves had a chance in the 9th with the tying run on 2nd but McCann struck out swinging to end the game.
April 24, 200719 yr Author Braves lose a close one to the Marlins. D-Train pitched on the same day as his kids birth and done pretty well. Game was tied at 2-2 when Olivio hit a 3 run homerun, which was part of a 6 run inning for the Marlins. Willis also helped his cause by hitting a triple and later scoring a run. Braves trailed 8-5 in the top of the ninth, and with 2 outs Chipper Jones hit a solo homerun, Andruw doubled then advanced to 3rd on a wild pitch. Francouer followed that with a double to bring the score to 7-8 but it ended when pinch hitter, Brian McCann, struck out on a 3-2 count. Braves fall to 12-7 and .5 games behind the Mets for 1st in the NL East.
April 25, 200719 yr Author Braves having trouble yet again with the Marlins. After building a quick 4 run lead Mark Redman gave up 4 runs in the bottom of the first. Braves are up 7-6 right now but have had plenty of chances to blow out the game. Nice bullpen work by both teams tonight!
April 25, 200719 yr Author Braves win against the Marlins tonight by a score of 11-6. Braves starter, Mark Redman, had yet another rough outing since joining the Braves, but the offense kept up with the Marlins. Braves went up 4-0 in the top of the 1st but a run and a 3 run homerun by Cody Ross quickly turned it to a 4-4 game. In the 2nd Braves jumped ahead again leading 6-4 but in the bottom of the 2nd Cody Ross hit a 2 run double to tie the game at 6-6. That's all the Marlins would get because the Braves bullpen only allowed 1 hit over the last 5 1/3 innings in the game. Braves went up 7-6 on a sac fly in the 6th and added some insurance runs in the top of the 9th from RBI singles from Pete Orr, Kelly Johnson and Edgar Renteria. Braves move to 13-7 still .5 games behind the Mets, and The Marlins fall to 9-11.
April 26, 200719 yr If I am not mistaken, the Braves were up 3-0 going into the 9th....and it is now 3-2, in the bottom of the 9th...the Marlins have the bases loaded with no outs...ouch.
