After Tim Hudson pitched six shutout innings on Wednesday night, he had to leave the game early due to elbow tightness and Chipper Jones was forced to leave early due to an injury sustained on a groundout, the Braves came through with a 9-4 win to take the series from the Marlins.  Gregor Blanco and Yunel Escobar both had multi-hit and RBI days and Jones had an RBI before he left the game.  Hudson gave up three hits and struck out six in his 11th win of the season.  The Braves are now set on taking the series from the Phillies.
