Braves vs. Yankees - 06/23/2009
Sparked by a 3-run third inning with a 2-RBI double from Garret Anderson and a solo home run from Brian McCann in the 8th, the Braves shut down the Yankees 4-0, issuing only 4 hits.
The game wasn’t without tense moments however, with Tommy Hanson and Peter Moylan both working out of some jams with runners in scoring position. Let’s hope this is a good sign for the Braves when the Yankees series continues tomorrow and we can put together a much-needed win streak.

Maybe It’s Time For Bobby To Call It A HOF CareerI love Bobby Cox, so it is hard for me to say this… but I would like for this to be his last season. |
Braves Need Outfield UpgradeBatting .240. One home run every 10 games. An on base percentage of .272. Folks, those aren’t last year’s stats. |
