The Atlanta Braves are more than happy to get that Charter out of Beer Town USA...Milwaukee in the Sky as they get game 3 of a three game set. The Brewers won the first two games by the score of 2-0 and the Braves finally found their Twigs and starting hitting the "Pelota" in Miller Park the "House of Horrors" for the Braves.

On Polish Heritage Day in Miller Park the Braves beat the Brew Crew 7-4 as Braves Starter Paul Maholm gets the win but it wasn't an impressive one. Maholm went five innings allowing four runs on eighth hits and a 2-run bomb to "Piwowarzy" Back Stop Johnathan Lucroy.

The Braves chased Brew Crew Starter Alfredo Figaro after just 3 1/3 innings. Figaro gets touched up for six runs on nine hits and he gave up three Big Flies to the Braves. The Braves put up a crooked four in the top half of the first and then cruised after that. The Brewers put up four in the bottom half of the 5th but still were down 5-4. The Hitting Star for the Braves was back stop Bob McCann who was 3 for 4 with a Grand Slam in the 1st and a run scored.

Braves move to 44-33 and still lead the NL East by six full games over the Nats. The Piwowarzy falls to 31-43 and back twelve in the Top-Heavy NL Central led by the Redbirds of the Lou.
