A big no-show

The Braves got smashed in both games of a double header against the Cubs yesterday, 10-2 and 8-0. In game one, Charlie Morton gave up 4 runs in 2-1/3 innings to take the loss. Since July 1, he has an ERA of 6.92. Of course, the bullpen was no help either, giving up 6 runs in 6-2/3 innings. Omar Infante had three hit to lead the offense. He is batting .361 in his last 10 games. In game two, the Cubs got four runs off Jorge Campillo in the first inning and never looked back. The Braves could only muster 3 hits in the entire game, with Yunel Escobar having two of those hits. Game three of the series is at 710p tonight. Tom Glavine returns to the mound for the first time since June 10th. Ted Lilly will pitch for the Cubs.

The US Men's basketball team will have a change to avenge their 2006 World Championship loss to Greece this morning. Game time is 8am EST.

The women's basketball team is having no problems so far, winning every game by at least 40 points.
