SunTrust Park - Atlanta, GA

Braves 40-29, 1st place in the N.L. East, 1 1/2 games ahead of the Phillies

At the Ballpark:  On Sunday, the first 5,000 kids will receive a Freddie Freeman and Ozzie Albies growth chart.  Also, Braves alumni will be signing for an hour prior to the game as part of the Alumni Sunday series.  Bob Horner, Sonny Jackson, Chris Hammond and Craig Skok are scheduled to appear.  This is definitely something I wish the Phillies would introduce into their promotional calendar.
