Three singles, a sac fly and a fielders choice and the Braves have two first inning runs.

Make that three runs. Brooks Conrad drilled the ball to left center and got an easy triple and an RBI.

Prado's single in the 2nd score McLouth after he doubled. 4-0 Braves!

Braves take a 5-1 lead on an infield single by D. Hernandez.
Rockies come back in the bottom half of the 3rd to score another. 5-2 Braves with 1 out.

Brad Hawped on one in the second to cut it to 4-1. The Braves scratched out another run in the 3rd - 5-1. Rockers score another in the bottom of the 3rd. 5-2 Braves headed to the 4th.

Brooks Conrad is making a case to keep himself in the every day lineup. Too bad he or Prado can't play SS while Escobar is out.

Braves waste a leadoff walk to McLouth, even with him advancing to scoring position on a wild pitch.

True. Diory's not exactly an MLB hitter. So who is the backup at SS if Escobar isn't available? Medlen's not too good today. Tuluwitxzaski with a HR; 5-3 Braves. It would be nice if Medlen could make it through 5 innings, but I won't bet on it.

Luckily today is a rare day our offense has spotted 5 runs. Hopefully more to come.
I would think Prado would move to SS and Conrad would stay at 2B if something were to happy to Hernandez.
Has anyone heard when Escobar will be back?

Church with his first Brave hit. First of many I hope.

Rockheads are using starters out of the pen today. Not helping them though. Brooks with a 2-run dinger.

De La Rosa is yanked for Matt Daley, a rook with a 1.25 WHIP and .230 BAA.
