Fresh off an 11-0 whipping of the Marlins last night, the Braves will try to win the series tonight behind Randall Delgado. Opposing Delgado for the Marlins is Josh Johnson. Johnson has not performed up to the lofty standards of his last few years, but has nevertheless been a solid presence in the Miami rotation this year. Over the last 3 years, Johnson has posted a 2.09 ERA against Atlanta with 51 strikeouts in 43 innings. Patience will be key for the Braves again today.
