One of these days, our luck is gonna change

The Braves had a late rally to tie the game against the Rangers yesterday afternoon, but could not hold on as Texas won 5-4. Atlanta scored two runs in the top of the ninth to tie the game at 4, but an Ian Kinsler double and a RBI single by Michael Young gave the Rangers the victory. Charlie Morton gave up 3 runs in 5 innings in his second major league start for Atlanta. The bullpen gave up 2 runs in 4 innings. Jeff Ridgway got a blown save and Blaine Boyer got the loss and is 1-5 on the season. Kelly Johnson had 2 hits in an otherwise unspectacular team effort on offense. The Braves are now 3-19 in one-run games. Seattle comes to town this weekend for a three-game series. Jorge Campillo will start for ATL and Erik Bedard will toss for the Mariners.

The LSU/North Carolina CWS game was rained out last night. They will start where they left off with NC leading 2-0 in the top of the first inning. The winner of this game plays Fresno State at 7pm on Saturday. Georgia and Stanford play at 2pm Saturday.
