Giants Take Game One of Series

by @ 2:43 pm. Filed under Uncategorized

The Brave lost yesterday in San Francisco 4-2 as Jair Jurrjens once again lasted six innings, but the Braves were not able to pull off a road-win.  Jurrjens gave up four runs on nine hits, walking three and striking out one in his tenth consecutive start pitching at least six innings.  Before the game, the Braves removed their hats and stood for a moment of silence for Skip Caray.  Jeff Francoeur and Omar Infante each drove in a run for Atlanta but the Braves were not able to come back as the Giants took the lead early in the Third. Tonight Mike Hampton (0-0) will take the mound for his second start on the road this season battling Jonathan Sanchez (8-7) of the Giants.
