    Braves Marlins @ Braves

    (11-24) vs. (17-20)

    5/15 Game 1: Josh Johnson (3-2, 2.78 ERA) vs. Kyle Davies (2-3, 5.31 ERA)
    5/16 Game 2: Dontrelle Willis (1-4, 6.22 ERA) vs. Tim Hudson (3-3, 4.67 ERA)
    5/17 Game 3: Ricky Nolasco (2-1, 4.15 ERA) vs. John Smoltz (3-2, 3.44 ERA)
    5/18 Game 4: Scott Olsen (2-2, 5.16 ERA) vs. Jorge Sosa (0-5, 6.52 ERA)

    I'm thinking Game 2 starter would be Hudson but I could be wrong. The Braves have won 5 out of the last 7 games. The need to gain some ground on the Phillies and Mets so they need to win at least 3 out of 4. I will be happy with 3 out of 4. Splitting the series at this point is not good enough in my opinion.

    Now is the time for Davis and Sosa to get back into things. They need to find their pitches and make less mistakes.

    *Edit: I just checked the probable pitchers for Game 2 and I was correct, it is Tim Hudson.

    Just a quick question. Why is LaRoch playing?

    I don't know, I thought Bobby said he'd bench him?

    Guess Bobby's sticking to his guns.

    I read an article about 1 hour ago and it stated that he wasn't going to be in the lineup until Wednesday but I guess Cox changed his mind.

    Nice double comeback by the Braves... first they tie it up in the bottom of the ninth to force extra innings, then in the 11th, FL scored to make it a 3-2 game and Atlanta came back in the bottom of the 11th and scored twice to win!

    W00T!!

    I missed half the game but I was able to get back home to catch another lovely comeback.

    Well I am surprised that we got the sweep with Sosa on the mound but they got the bats working once again.

    Sosa did a pretty good job, too.
