4/3 Recap: Braves 11 Dodgers 10

Positive: The offense looked great. I've questioned how this offense will start out. Marcus Giles looked comfortable at leadoff and did the job. LaRoche came through in a big way with a jack in the 1st.

Negative: Errors..again it's early in the year but it's better to work out the kinks before the season starts rolling, but it didn't cost us the win. Tim Hudson. Hudson was ate up in his first start. I'm not worried, remember last year when the Marlins hammered Smoltz? Smoltz came back, and so can Huddy. Bullpen, how many times will say this as a negative? Same story as last year but this time w/out Kolb. Boyer looked horrible, are we sure he was ready to come back? Boyer's ERA is 81.01 Reitsma's scary ninth brought back nightmares of '05.

What Now: Atlanta continues their 3 game series against the Dodgers tonight, as John Smoltz will face Brad Penny. The game is at 10:10ET, and that means I'll have to catch the box score tommorrow morning due to work constraints.
