OK, so yesterday was another nice win. I'll get into that later as well as a discussion about Dayton Moore and Brian McCann's trip to the DL.
But for the moment, let's focus on today. Game 3 of the series against the Cubs features the following pitching matchup:
John Smoltz (4-2, 3.12)
vs.
Jae Kuk Ryu (0-0, 9.00)
