Braves Flashback/Recap: July 8

This game is kind of the companion piece to the July 4 game we covered last week, where the Braves lost to the Marlins despite one team being good and one team being really not so good, just because baseball is always excited to teach you new dimensions of disappointment and rage. It goes without saying that for much of the background, check out that flashback/recap, if you care.

The gist: The Braves and Marlins somehow battled to a 1-1 standstill for 13 innings, with Mike Minor allowing just one run, and Kevin Slowey allowing zero in his last start of the year.
