Things were starting to pick up for the Braves for awhile as they swept the Reds and the Padres for a 6 game winning streak. Unfortunately that streak ended with a loss to the Pirates on Friday, as well as yesterday. Today's game was postponed due to rain, so maybe the day off will allow the Braves to come out fresh for the double header tomorrow and get some wins. We need to tie up this series with the Pirates. Then if we can get some wins against the Phillies in our next series it would be crucial in gaining lead on the mets and phillies.
