The Braves lost to the Yankees last night 8-4. Kenshin Kawakami pitched 3 innings of no-hit ball until he was struck in the neck with a line drive off the bat of Joba Chamberlain. Kawakami walked off the field, but was replaced on the mound by Kris Medlen. Medlen and the rest of the bullpen proceeded to give up 8 runs over the next six innings. You can't use the bullpen's big three (Moylan, Gonzalez, Soriano) every night, but it would be nice to get some help from the others every once in a while. The offense got 8 hits, 2 each from Jeff Francoeur and Chipper Jones. One of Francoeur's hits was his fifth home run of the year. The rubber game of the series is tonight at 710p. Derek Lowe will pitch for the Braves and Andy Pettite will pitch for the Yankees.
LSU scored 5 runs in the sixth inning to beat Texas 11-4 to win it's 6th NCAA baseball title.
