The Atlanta Braves (13-7) beat the Miami Marlins (9-11) last night thanks in part to Pete Orr. Orr pinch hit in the top of the 9th for pitcher Rafael Soriano. The Bravos were leading 7-6 and Orr drove in 2 runs on a single to right field. Orr later scored on a single by Edgar Renteria. Orr's single, his second hit of the season, gave him his first two RBI and run scored of the season. Pete is now 2-7 in '07.
It's quite strange that Orr has only seen 2 innings in the field this season and has yet to get a start. Manager Bobby Cox has started right handed hitting Chris Woodward at second base on several occations, but nothing for Orr to date.
Cox is known for spreading playing time around to "keep guys fresh," but Orr has not seen his share yet.
