You have to hand it to the Braves; their defense was just phenomenal tonight.
John Smoltz also was stellar.
Phils offense just couldn't really get going against Braves pitching. The Phils had just six hits, with only Thome, Bell, Rollins and Abreu splitting that output.
Abbott ... is terrible. Please, God, bring Padilla back soon. Abbott pitched a whopping four and 2/3 innings tonight, giving up eight hits and four earned runs. He also walked three. His record is now an outstanding 2-9. Nice job.
Maybe we can break even the series tomorrow. I don't like second place.
