"He can't do the hitting"

The Braves lost to the Giants last night 5-1. Jair Jurrjens started for the Braves and gave up 2 runs in 7 innings, but still took the loss because the offense can't hit. The bullpen didn't help a lot either, giving up 3 runs in 2 innings. Mark Kotsay had 2 hits for the pitiful offense. The teams play again on Saturday night at 710p. Mike Hampton will pitch for the Braves, Johnathan Sanchez pitches for the Giants.

It was a night of close finishes in the Olympics. American record holder Tyson Gay did not make the finals in the 100 meter dash, finishing .02 seconds away from fourth place in his heat. Michael Phelps won his 7th gold medal by .01 seconds. He has one more event, the 400m medley relay, to achieve something that no one has ever done in a single Olympic games, win 8 gold medals.
