Braves 7-3 Losers to Dodgers
Los Angeles shortstop Matt Smith contributed significantly to his team's 7-3 win over the Atlanta Braves. Smith went 2 for 4 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Dodgers. Johan Santana, the winning pitcher, is now 3-1. He went 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 9 hits, while fanning 5 and walking 2. The Braves fall to 8-9 and continue their wobbly start to the 2007 season.

Los Angeles used the hitting of Jay Bruce to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Dodgers on top, 3-0. For the game, Bruce had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Smith attributed the win to his team's "collective resolve."
