PASSED BALLS- P.Lo Duca



With the hometown crowd on the edge of their seats, Atlanta Braves came from

behind to top Minnesota Twins, 5 to 4.



Atlanta erupted with the game winning runs in the 9th inning with 3 runs

utilizing 3 base hits. Kevin Youkilis opened up the scoring as he lofted a

solo-blast 'downtown'. Nick Swisher came next and he drew a walk. After an

out was recorded, Ray Durham stepped in and he doubled. Jeff Davanon

followed, but he was set down on strikes. Grady Sizemore stepped into the

box and doubled. Atlanta had 10 hits for the afternoon while Minnesota had

6.



Josh Johnson(9-2) got the win allowing no runs in 1 inning. Todd Jones(1-3)

suffered the loss in relief. He surrendered 3 runs and 2 hits in 1/3 of an

inning.



Todd Melton was all smiles after the ballgame, 'It sure was looking pretty dim

there for a while, but our guys never gave up - and neither did our fans -

they kept cheering us on. What a sweet win!'
