Braves win again stay put though with Halladays perfect game

The Braves came in to play today at 26 and 22 ready to win again. In the first inning the J-Hey kid belted a 402 ft. homer. Then Andrew Mccuthen for the Pirates countered with a homerun just our of the reach of left fielder Melkey Cabrera. Then with runners on second and third the pitcher burresd for the pirates hit a triple of Kris Medlen. After a 3 to 1 deficit for the Braves they came back. Troy Glaus hit a two run double. Then later the Braves came home with a Martin Prado 2 run double. After a 10 minute rain delay Billy Wagner closed it out earning himself his 6th save. The Braves still stand second 1.5 games out of first place as Roy Halladay threw a perfect game against the Marlins in a 1 to 0 game and Josh Johnson should have gotten better defense as an unearned scored on an under ran ball by Cameron Maybin in center in the thrid and if he would have caught the ball this game would be in extra innings. Kris Medlen thought gets his second win for Atlanta and Burres picks up his thrid loss. Nate Mclouth did have a base hit and a stolen base but Yunel Escobar still went o for 3 as he looks to rebound tommorow. Kenshin Kawakami (0-7) will be on the hill for the Braves. He will face Paul Maholm (3-4). Although Kenshin's recored does not reflect how great he has been pitching. Right now he should be at least 3 and 4. Tommorow though I have a feeling will be a good day for him. First pitch is at 1:35. With and Atlanta win and Phillie lost Atlanta will find themselves half a game out of first place as they go for the sweep of the Puttsburgh Pirates tommorow.
