Braves edge Nats in ninth

Baseball Betting Lines

04/22/2009 - Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A pitching duel between Atlanta's Jair Jurrjens and Washington's John Lannan was decided by the Nationals' bullpen, as Garrett Mock and Mike Hinckley loaded the bases in the top of the ninth inning, with the latter walking Kelly Johnson to force in the game's only run in a 1-0 Braves victory.

Jurrjens went 7 2/3 frames without giving up a run, scattering six hits and two walks while fanning four. Lannan had an almost identical line, giving up five hits and a pair of free passes, fanning four in seven scoreless innings.

Neither factored in the decision, as Mock (0-1) took the loss and Atlanta's Mike Gonzalez (1-0) got the win for recording the final out of the eighth.

Rafael Soriano closed the door with a 1-2-3 ninth inning for his second save of the season, snapping the Nationals' two-game winning streak and giving Atlanta its second win in nine games.

Matt Diaz's one-out single back up the middle got the Braves started in the ninth. Mock got Casey Kotchman to ground into a fielder's choice for the second out, but walked Jordan Schafer.

Washington then called upon Hinckley, who walked pinch-hitter Martin Prado before Johnson worked a five-pitch free pass to force in the only run.

Julian Tavarez came in from the bullpen and struck out Yunel Escobar to end the threat, but Soriano ended things with a perfect bottom half.

The Braves threatened to score first in the fourth, but Lannan fanned his counterpart with the bases loaded to end the inning.

The Nationals put a pair of runners on base in the fifth, but Alex Cintron grounded into an inning-ending 4-6-3 double play.

The hosts also wasted a leadoff double from Josh Willingham in the seventh. Ronnie Belliard moved the runner to third on a sacrifice bunt, but Chipper Jones made a diving stop before throwing out Jesus Flores, and Austin Kearns followed with a pop out to short to end the frame.

Game Notes

Washington had won nine of its last 11 at home versus Atlanta...Washington's Nick Johnson and Atlanta's Jeff Francoeur each had of their respective teams' six hits...Both teams went 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position.
