Braves Down Yanks In Game 1

Written by Jonathan on June 23, 2009 – 10:51 pm

Tommy Hanson improved his record to 3-0 since being called up to the bigs and the Braves recorded their second shutout in a row tonight against the visiting New York Yankees.

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.

    I hear ya Josh. I happily sat in my seat at the game last night, surrounded by at least 5 Yankees fans on all sides. All that mattered was the final result. Now I'm just hoping that we can take at least one of the next two and pull off the series win.
