The Atlanta Braves once again lost to the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday night. This was the third straight loss for the Braves against the Cardinals in the four game series. They will now have to win on Thursday to avoid the four game sweep at home.
Jair Jurrjens started the game and gave up seven hits and three runs through seven innings. He didn’t throw the ball that badly at all to be honest. However Jurrjens took the loss and is now 10-7 on the season. Blaine Boyer gave up two hits and two runs while only recording two outs. Julian Tavarez had a lot of trouble in the ninth inning as he allowed the Cardinals to score two more runs.
Jeff Francoeur had a rbi single in the second inning and then Omar Infante added a rbi single in the fifth inning. That was all the scoring for the Braves however.
I will not be around to blog about the games the rest of the week as I have to head out of town for a few weeks. Our normal blogger should be back at the beginning of the week so check back then!
