    I'd definitely take a "quality" start for Andy today (6 IP, 3 ER or less).... but he'll have to go thru that 2-3-4 of the ATL lineup to do it.

    Adams hit the ball hard twice and has nothing to show for it :(

    His first ball would have been off the brick facade in Houston.

    Turner Field is a pitcher's haven... and the wind is supposedly blowing in today (which really shows how well the Jones boys hit Andy's two pitches that were begging to be crushed).

    Only 6 pitches for Hudson in the 6th (to bring his per inning average down to respectable 14).

    Andy needs to get through this 6th inning and the next time the Jones boys come up might be against Lidge

    The problem with that is Franco has great #'s off Pettite... I say attack, just don't leave it right over the plate like he did last time.

    Bobby Cox eventually always gets his way with the managers as the game goes on... its like he has dirty pictures of all of them.

    Nick has an obsessive-compulsive need to explain everyone's posts to them. just expect it.

    Nice job Andy!

    I'm so sick of hearing about the Braves rookies.
