Adam Kennedy awarded by the home team announcers with the Havoline Defensive Play of the Game. A great honor.

The new pitcher for the Braves is Chad Paronto.

Wilson rips one over the head of Orr for a single, sounded like it was off the handle though. Looks like he might be finding a little bit more of a groove. Or at least not lost up there.

Molina at the plate, 5-4-3

Edgar Gonzalez smacks a liner right at Pete Orr at third to end the inning.

Middle 8.

6-5 Cardinals. 10 hits and 1 error for the good guys.

Tony Pena drops one in on a jam-shot down the right field line. Runner on first for Hancock.

Gonzalez, in at second base, gets beat 5-hole. E4, runners at the corners with two down.

Tied up at 6.

Edgar Gonzalez garners the Ford "Edge of Your Seat" Play of the Game for his home run.

Steve Collier the left hander in to pitch for the Braves.

Aaron Miles with a chopper off the plate, Collier comes in, spins, and makes a nice play to get Miles for the first out.

Marrero grounds to Pena at SS for out number two.

Duncan hits a come-backer to the mound.

Headed to the bottom.

Cavazos on the bump, sporting the Iron Bill.

Brian Pena, a back-up catcher candidate, rips one to center. Taguchi gets a nice jump and hauls it in easily at the track.

Craig Wilson mullets one to left, right at Miguel Negron for the second out.

Taguchi making his case in center. Sliding short-hop stab off an Escobar liner in the gap, throws from his seat to hold Escobar to a single.

Cazos induces a pop-up to Spiezio, playing first base to end the inning.

Going to Spring Training extras.

Hodges in for Atlanta.

Taguchi runs the count full, and shoots a soft liner at Pena's feet, who duffs it, and it's ruled a hit somehow.

Pitch-out on a hit-and-run, Taguchi out at second. Pena does well to block the bag, close play.

Cabrera swings at strike three.

Spiezio walks on an at-bat full of curves from Hodges.

Two down, Jrod up, Scott on first.
