I notice from your sender line that you are a Yellow Jacket fan.  As an under-
grad at Tech, it is nice to know there are still some people who care about one
of the best athletic programs in the country.

HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH !!!!!!!

Everybody remember the game when Smoltz was pitching against the Cardinals
on May 9, when the Braves jumped to a 9-0 lead, but blew it and lost 12-11?
Well, everything looked ready to repeat itself, but this time it was the
Braves who came back to preserve their winning streak at 10.  The Braves
moved to within a half game of Cincinnati, who got blanked by the Cubs.

Ronnie Gant broke his slump open, going 4-for-6 with 4 RBI and a home run.
David Justice went 3-for-5 with 2 RBI, raising his average to .257 and extend
his hitting streak.  Al Pena got his first win to go along with all his recent
saves, so the closer's position looks pretty solid right now.

I am very happy. Things look like they have really come together for Atlanta,
and as long as things are going like this, it makes it all worthwhile.  Even
if the Bravos don't end up winning the West (which is silly to even think
about-not winning it I mean), they will already have had a great season.

Anyway, about the game:  The Braves scored four in the first off a two-run 
single by Gant, a one-run single by Justice, and a one-run single by Olson.
(Olson then stole second.)

They scored two in the third when Gant tripled home Pendleton and Justice
sacrificed Gant home.

At 6-1, the Cardinals scored one in the fourth and two in the fifth to finish
Avery's work for the night.  Freeman came in and promptly gave up three runs
in the sixth to give the Birds the lead, 7-6.

Gant then came in and hit a solo homer in the seventh to tie it up, where
it stayed till the twelfth.  With Pendleton and Gant on base, Bream doubled
to left to score Pendleton.  Gant scored on Lemke grounder to make it 9-7,
and Pena set down the Cardinals in order to win it.

What a game.  What a team.
