Braves Knock Off Pittsburgh, 8-0
Esteban Armelini impressed in the 8-0 Atlanta win over Pittsburgh. Armelini, who finished 4th in the NL in extra base hits with 77 in 2009, went 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Billy Buckner picked up the save, his 1st. Pittsburgh drops to 3-6.

Chipper Jones had a big 2-run home run for the Braves in the top of the fourth inning. With Atlanta leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a slider from Ubaldo Jimenez, who is a two-time Gold Glove Award winner, and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Braves on top, 3-0.

Said losing manager Robby Thompson: "The list goes on and on of things we just flat out didn't do."
