Yesterday’s game between the Braves and Phillies was extremely tight, as the game went into the seventh inning with no score. That changed when Jeff Francoeur managed to go deep off of Andrew Bailey and hit a two-run homer that put the Braves in front. The Phillies were only able to scrounge together one run after that, which meant that the Braves were able to pick up a split of their four-game series with Philadelphia.
It’s here folks: We’ve reached the Trade Deadline, and now it’s time to see if the Braves will cap off a busy period with a flurry or a whisper.
