For you Braves fans, per Buster Olney:

@Buster_ESPN

Braves continue to be one of the teams in on Ryan Dempster, and it'll be interesting if the Jurrjens outing today will spur more talk.

 

[apachef4]

Espinosa hits one 2/3 of the way up the wall in front of the Red Porch for a double. Morse to 3rd. Nice to see Espinosa getting back on track.

 

[apachef4]

Shark intentionally walked to face Leon. Freddi going against the percentages, here.

 

[apachef4]

Don't go against the percentages, Freddie. Leon hits a 2-run double to left, 8-0 Nats.

 

[apachef4]
