The Braves got an early lead as they plated a run in the first inning. Yunel Escobar drew a two out walk and then scored from first on a base hit by Barbaro Canizares. The other two runs came in the eighth inning after Gregor Blanco reached base on an error to lead off the inning. Yunel Escobar then singled with one out and advanced Blanco to second. Canzirares then struck again with a two run double.
The Lookouts lone run came in the bottom of the eighth inning, as Rick Asadoorian came in to pinch hit and promptly hit his first home run of the season. Lookouts' starter Travis Chick suffered a tough loss (2-2) after pitching six innings, allowing four hits and one run.
