The Braves beat the Cardinals 9-2 to complete a road sweep of one of the better teams in the league. It took Javier Vasquez only 94 pitches to shut down the home team, as he scattered 7 hits and had 8 strikeouts. He also gave the bullpen a much needed day of rest. Nate McLouth had 4 hits and Adam LaRoche had 3 RBI to lead the offense. The Braves have the day off today before going to New York to face the Mets tomorrow night.
Atlanta is 7.5 games behind the Phillies in the NL East and 6.5 games behind the Rockies in the wild card race. However, there are only 19 games left in the season, so we need to start the playoff push ASAP!
