The Braves were shut down again by great Dodger pitching as they lost to LA 2-1. LA's Derek Lowe had a perfect game through six innings before Gregor Blanco singled to lead off the seventh. Tim Hudson was solid as usual, pitching 7 innings giving up 2 runs and scattering 4 hits. The only other hit for the Braves was a solo home run by Jeff Francoeur, who looks like he may be getting back to normal after his three-day stint in Double-A. The team is off today. On Friday, the Braves travel to San Diego for the last series before the all-star break.
