The good news for the Braves is that they made Jonathan Sanchez work a little bit in the bottom of the seventh, as Derrek Lee and Brian McCann each saw eight pitches. The bad news is that Lee struck out, and McCann grounded out. Matt Diaz grounded out, too - on the first pitch - to end a 1-2-3 inning, and Atlanta remains scoreless, with but a single and a walk to its name.
