Apr. 25, 2009 (Baseball Musings delivered by Newstex ) --
The Braves played four straight one-run games coming into today, but turned that around with a 10-2 rout of the Cincinnati Reds. Atlanta scored as many runs today as they did in the previous four games. Derek Lowe continues to be a great signing for the Braves . With his two runs allowed today his ERA sits at 3.10. He struck out eight, giving him 25 in 29 innings of work on the season. Thats his best strike out rate since he was a reliever for the Red Sox in 2001.
Update: The Braves played without their catcher, Brian McCann. They placed him on the disabled list with an eye infection. It seemed to take a long time to diagnose that as causing his blurry vision.
