Braves, Marlins Catchup

The Braves lost the series vs the Florida Marlins on Thursday, losing the last game 6-5. Here the Braves finally put a decent amount of runs on the scoreboard only to have Brandon Beachy stink it up. Somehow Beachy managed to get himself eight strikeouts. The Braves could/should of won this time. Later in the game, bases were loaded, Brooks Conrad is up to bat as a pinch hitter. Line drive hit towards right center field. Chris Coughlan does an Andruw Jones like play in center field and robbed Brooks Conrad of a potential two or three RBIs. It would have been enough to win the game.

- Beachy had trouble with his command. 5.1 innings, seven hits, five earned runs, four walks, and eight strikeouts.

- Bullpen did well. Combined 3.2 innings, six hits, one run, no walks, and seven strike outs.

- Braves pitchers struck out 15 batters total.

-Big game for Brian McCann. He had a three run homer in the first inning. Finished the day 2-4 with one home run, three RBI, and obviously one run.

- Dan Uggla hit his third home run of the season.
