Braves Get 11-6 Win Versus Washington
In the 11-6 Atlanta win over Washington, the impact of Greg Somers was substantial. Somers was 2 for 3 with a double and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. The win belonged to Roland Carroll in relief. His record improves to 3-2. Greg Hoppe took the loss for Washington. Atlanta occupies second place in the National League East Division at 54-55.

Francisco Galdamez had a big 2-run triple for the Braves in the bottom of the first inning. With Atlanta leading 1-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from Greg Hoppe, who finished 4th in the AL in wins with 16 in 2105, and swatted a triple to left. It was his 9th triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Braves ahead, 3-0.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Braves manager Dan Hoagland. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."
