--OF Brandon Jones was the odd outfielder out once CF Mark Kotsay was activated from the 15-day disabled list, and he was sent to Class AAA Richmond. Jones batted .278 in 16 games with Atlanta.
--SS Yunel Escobar said his jammed left shoulder is feeling better, and neither that nor his aching hip flexor should force him to the disabled list. He didn't play again Tuesday.
--INF Omar Infante said he needs only another day or two until his strained right hamstring allows him to do everything he wants. He is working it out hard in batting practice, and he flied out Tuesday as a pinch hitter.
BY THE NUMBERS: 2-10 -- The Braves' record in the first 12 games in which 3B Chipper Jones did not played this season. They were 4-12 in the first 16 games in which he did not start.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "Everything he throws is funky. He throws a changeup that cuts, he throws a changeup that sinks. He's been awesome." -- C Brian McCann, on RHP Jorge Campillo.
