Atlanta Braves News: Braves beat down Phillies, then make a trade

The Braves did bad things to the Phillies as the offense jumped all over, well, the entire Phillies pitching staff (seriously, it is possibly all of them pitched last night...plus a position player!). Just about everyone got in on the action as the Braves walloped the Phillies 15-2 in the series finale. Make sure to read the recap to start your Easter off right.

Immediately after the game, the Braves and Angels announced a trade that sent the strikeout prone Ryan Schimpf (who the Braves acquired just last month) to the West Coast in exchange for catcher Carlos Perez to help give the Braves some depth at catcher.
