And it all goes out the window for Derek Lowe. After Madison Bumgarner kept the Braves off the board in the fifth, Lowe kicked off the sixth with a strikeout of Mike Fontenot. He then made a first-pitch mistake to Cody Ross, however, and Ross lined the ball deep to left field, just barely clearing the fence. The solo home run ended both Derek Lowe's no-hitter and his shutout, and the Braves are looking at a whole new ballgame.
