--3B Chipper Jones hit his first home run at Turner Field since Sept. 10, 2008. With his swing hampered by the left thumb bone bruise, he's been drawing mostly walks and hitting singles instead of extra-base hits.
--C Brian McCann will start his rehab assignment with Class A Rome (Ga.) on Wednesday. His new glasses are not expected to arrive until that morning, and Class AAA Gwinnett has a Wednesday morning game, explaining why McCann is in Rome.
--LHP Tom Glavine threw his first bullpen session Monday. He said he did not have the arm strength he had at the end of spring training and doesn't know how long it will take for that to come back.
--RHP Javier Vazquez threw a season-high 110 pitches, but two of them were down the middle and up to Carlos Beltran. After having given up only a single home run over 32 innings, Vazquez surrendered three in his last 1 2/3 innings Monday.
