Braves Send Milwaukee Home with 3-2 Loss
The Atlanta Braves picked up a win at Miller Park, knocking off the Milwaukee Brewers, 3-2. Starting pitcher Billy Buckner played a key role in the triumph. Even with the win, the Braves have a dismal 41-101 record.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Marlon Byrd came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Milwaukee pitcher Josh Spence, he hit a 1-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Atlanta on top, 3-2.

"Wish we'd had more wins to celebrate like this one," said Buckner.
