While the Braves are nearly down to their last man standing in the bullpen, fans finally have reason for optimism for the first time in two brutal days. Rick Ankiel was all over an inside fastball, dropping it into the Bay amidst the kayakers to ensure the Braves would take the field in the bottom half with a lead. Glaus and Infante would become quiet outs after a very loud run to end the inning.

Glaus has been replaced at third by Diory Hernandez for defensive reason.
