The Braves smacked the Diamondbacks 14-0 in Arizona Sunday afternoon, as Atlanta salvaged a win in the 3-game series.
The Braves piled-up 19 hits, including home runs from Andruw Jones and Scott Thorman. Chipper Jones had 5 RBI's on the day. On the mound, Tim Hudson won his 5th straight decision, allowing only 3 hits with 5 strikeouts in 7 innings of work.
The 14 runs marked a season-high in scoring for the Braves. The team completed the road trip with 3 wins in 7 games. They're off today, opening a homestand tomorrow night.
Baseball's non-waiver trade deadline is Tuesday at 4pm. The Braves are rumored to be talking with at least one team about a possible deal. Reports indicate the Braves might be willing to offer top prospect, catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia, and a pitching prospect to the Texas Ranagers. In return, the rumored deal would bring Mark Texiera to the Braves--a slugging 1st baseman and former Georgia Tech star.
From the NFL, the Atlanta Falcons are going with another day of training camp workouts at their team headquarters in Flowery Branch.
