  for this game

Braves go for sixth straight win

May 13, 2007 - 1:35 PM Atlanta (24-12) at Pittsburgh (15-20) 1:35 pm EDT

PITTSBURGH (Ticker) -- Rookie Anthony Lerew will look to keep the Atlanta Braves rolling in a homecoming of sorts.

Lerew (0-0, 3.00 ERA) takes the mound on Sunday as the Braves aim to extend a season-high five-game winning streak and complete a three-game sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates.

A native of Dillsburg, Pennsylvania, Lerew will be making the second start of his career. The righthander was outstanding in his major-league debut against San Diego last Tuesday, allowing just two runs in six innings with seven strikeouts, but did not get a decision.

Pittsburgh will send Ian Snell (2-2, 2.35) to the mound in hopes of salvaging the final game of the series. Snell allowed 10 hits but just three runs - two earned - in seven innings and did not factor in the decision of a 4-3 win over the Chicago Cubs last Tuesday.

Snell has pitched at least seven innings in five straight starts for the Pirates.

Atlanta won 9-2 on Saturday as Scott Thorman hit two homers and Chuck James flirted with a perfect game through five innings.
