Braves Earn Win with Late Rally
The Atlanta Braves faced a tough opponent in Arizona pitcher Sam Taveras, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Chase Field by a final score of 5-4. Taveras went 6.2 innings and allowed no runs. Atlanta reliever Josh Kay picked up the win to move to 1-1. Chris Garza suffered the loss. Jared Burton picked up the save, his 5th.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Esteban Armelini? The slugging first baseman Armelini stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Atlanta up, 5-4. For the game, he was 3 for 5, including 2 doubles and 1 single.

"This was a good win," said Armelini.

Atlanta, with the win, is 11-25.
