Atlanta Braves Postseason Pace & Saturday's Lineup

After four really good days in a row, last night was a bad day. The Braves were not up to the task and couldn't prevent the Phillies from taking advantage of key situations. The Padres also got the best of the Giants.

Tommy Hanson is going to need to be up to the task tonight. We really have no room for error now.

The Phillies are starting something called a Vance Worley, no Braves player has ever faced him. Here is Atlanta's lineup:

  1. Omar Infante, 2B
  2. Jason Heyward, RF
  3. Brian McCann, C
  4. Derrek Lee, 1B
  5. Brooks Conrad, 3B
  6. Nate McLouth, LF
  7. Alex Gonzalez, SS
  8. Rick Ankiel, CF
  9. Tommy Hanson, P

Reminder that the Bobby Cox pregame ceremony starts at 3:30pm on Fox Sports South, and the game is on (regular) Fox at 4pm.
