The Braves failed to score many runs in the entire Reds series, including a 4-2 loss in 12 innings on Sunday that led to a sweep. Atlanta tallied 4 runs in the 3 games against a staff that normally give up that many runs in one game. In the series, the Braves batted .149 with an OPS of .503. That will not win you many ball games. The goats of yesterday's game were Omar Infante, Brooks Conrad, and Garrett Anderson. They were a combined 0-for-14 and left 10 men on base. The poor offense wasted a great pitching performance by Tim Hudson. Huddy gave up 1 run on 4 hits with 6 strikeouts in 7 innings. The Braves have the day off today before traveling to Houston for a 3-game series starting Tuesday.
Atlanta is 8.5 games behind the Phillies in the NL East and two games behind second-place Florida. The Braves are 7 games behind the Rockies in the NL wild card race.
