The Atlanta Braves have dropped a season tying four straight road games and now must continue play today vs. Milwaukee at Miller Park where the Braves have lost seven straight games being outscored 29-9 in that time frame. Atlanta is hitting .172 with Runners in Scoring Position losing four of five overall and only 11-21 on the road since mid April. Hudson is 4-6 4.17 ERA and 0-5 4.47 ERA last eight starts receiving only 10 runs of support. Hudson's last winless streak of eight games dates back to 2002 so Hudson will also have some personal incentive this afternoon as well. Hudson however has a 1.57 ERA in June and is 4-4 3.30 ERA in ten career starts vs. Milwaukee. Hand is 0-0 3.38 ERA making his first MLB start. Hand has allowed six runs in 13 Innings Pitched in eight relief appearances. Segura had a scrappy night last night for the Brew Crew with key hits and his 11th HR of the sseason. The Brewer outfield also came up with some key defensive plays that broke any momentum Atlanta was trying to formulate. BJ Upton is .171 a MLB worst and continues to strikeout. Upton did show signs of improvement over the last week but still is feast or famine on any given day. Milwaukee has a home field dominance in this matchup but starts a pitcher making his first big league start. One of the keys today will be the veteran Hudson looking to end one of the longest winless streaks of his MLB career vs. Hand's ability to overcome nerves striving to have a good outing in his first MLB starting appearance.

Atlanta's road struggles continue as the Braves drop another game today by a 2-0 final to the Brewers. Milwaukee really has Atlanta's number at Miller Park.
