Braves Sweep Pirates

The Braves swept the Pirates yesterday as they beat them 5-1. Buddy Carlyle was impressive again going 8 innings and allowing one earned run. Although with 91 pitches after the 8th, I thought he should have finished the game. Can he remain this good for the rest of the season?

-Edgar Renteria went 4-5 with an rbi and a stolen base.

-The rest of the team contributed well except Andruw Jones. Which is ok, I don't expect him to hit a home run everyday.

The Braves will begin a new series vs the Cincinnati Reds. Kyle Davies will face rookie pitcher Bobby Livingston. Livingston is a lefty and the Braves are unfamiliar with him. I don't like the chances of tonights game. A win here is a must.
