Oakland A’s Come To Town

Written by Colin on May 16, 2008 – 7:11 pm

Mark Kotsay gets an opportunity to face his old team tonight as Interleague play starts and the Oakland A’s come to town.  Jair Jurrjens (4-3, 3.10) takes the mound tonight for the Braves and faces Dana Eveland (3-3, 3.23).  Jurrjens looks to add to his team-high 41 strikeouts and Kotsay gets to prove to his old team that he’s worth more than Joey Devine as he looks to continue his solid start.

The Braves have been rocking it at home recently and need to continue that streak until their road woes subside.  We need to take this series to start the 11 game home stand.  Join us as we watch the game for thoughts and commentary on the first Interleague game of the season.

Let’s go Braves!
