The Braves took a 3-0 lead on the Cardinals in the first inning only to give 5 runs back in the second inning and much more as the game went on in a 11-4 defeat. The game pushed Atlanta 1 games back of the Phillies in the NL East. The Braves are still one game ahead of the Giants in the wild card race.
Omar Infante was 1-for-4 to lower his average to .342. His qualifying average is .319 because he does not have enough plate appearances to qualify for the batting title. Using his playing time averages with respect to at-bats and plate appearances, he needs 29 hits in 89 at-bats over the next 21 games to catch NL batting leader Carlos Gonzalez' .337 average.
