O Fur

Bravos bats were silenced by 36 year old Pedro Astacio - Previously 4-16 lifetime vs. ATL. Astacio, once a promising young pitcher with the Dodgers and Rockies looked like a Cy Young canidate last night as the Nationals blanked the Braves 5-0. Pedro's line: 9IP, 2H, 0R, 0BB, 5K; 89 pitches.

Braves starter Lance Cormier, pitching in his first big league game since July 1, lasted 4.1 innings.

In follow up to his 3-5 (a homer away from the cycle) performance on Saturday (8/12), Pete Orr went 0-2 after coming into the game in the 6th as a pinch hitter. He stayed in the game to play a few innings of perfect defense at 2B.
