Braves update
Your Atlanta Braves had some hot bats at Petco Park over the weekend, but the highlight for me came on Friday night when Jorge Sosa (3-10) blew a save in the 9th AND in the 10th then recorded a win in the 11th. Baseball has strange rules.
Some other interesting stats from Friday night:
- The teams crossed home plate 27 times.
- The two teams used 17 combined pitchers.
- The teams combined for 11 doubles.
- The teams combined for 8 home runs.
- Chipper Jones extended his extra-base hit streak to 12 games (now 14).
After sweeping the Padres at Petco, the Braves are now 5.5 games back of the NL Wild Card leading Reds and 12 games back of the sizzling Mets in the NL East.
For those scoring at home:A passed ball is not scored as an error. A run that scores because of a passed ball is not scored as an earned run.
A wild pitch is not scored as an error. A run that scores because of a wild pitch is counted as an earned run.

I think its cause the pitcher does the damage to himself on a WP and a PB is done to him, thus the ER vs UER. The scoring that always baffles me is no RBI for a GIDP...seems like you should get one, never really understood that one
