Wow...the Braves bullpen threw 9.1 innings last night allowing 6 hits, 1 run (earned), and striking out three. OK, the combination of Villarreal, Yates, McBride, Stockman, and Sosa walked 6, but Braves fans will take it.
Smoltz went down in the 2nd with a groin strain, but all reports say that he'll be OK and probably won't miss his next start. Pete Orr pinch ran for Brian McCann in the 9th, but didn't score.
The ballsy double steal (Francoeur & Betemit) might be the adrenaline shot that the Bravos need. We'll see when they take on Tampa Bay again tonight at 7:00 - Lance Cormier on the hill for Atlanta and Tim Corcoran throwing for the Rays.. The fact is, if the Braves can regain the form of a quality team, the Devil Rays are a team that they need to beat. The Rays are weak.
