The Braves had a nice win over the Florida Marlins tonight, beating them 5-0. The defense has been doing very well and made a lot of nice plays tonight.
- Tommy Hanson finally got himself together. He pitched seven shut out innings giving up four hits, walking two and striking out five.
- The bullpen filled in and kept the shut out. O'Flaherty, Moylan, and Linebrink all pitched 2 innings giving up one hit, walking two and striking out two.
- The offense got things going, although I'm not going to get too excited yet because it was against an average pitcher.
- Prado was 2-4 with two runs.
- Chipper was 1-2 with two RBI and a walk. He needs one more RBI for 1,500.
- Brian McCann hit his first home run of the season. It was a monster shot.
- Uggla got his first hit in Atlanta as a Brave.
- Jason Heyward blasted a homer straight over the centerfield wall. He was also intentionally walked.
- Every Braves starter had a least one hit.
* Tomorrow will be a tough game. One of the top pitchers in the league will be on the mound for Florida while Tim Hudson will be pitching for the Braves. The Braves have faced a lot of quality pitchers so far this season.
