Hudson, Braves look for series split against Dodgers

Jul 5, 2007 - 2:18 PM Atlanta (43-41) at La Dodgers (48-36) 10:10 pm EDT

LOS ANGELES (Ticker) -- Tim Hudson takes the mound as the Atlanta Braves look for a series split with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday.

Hudson (8-5, 3.18 ERA) is looking for his third straight win after allowing one run over seven innings in each of his past two starts.

On Saturday Hudson limited the Florida Marlins to one run on seven hits with six strikeouts to pick up his first win in five outings.

The Braves dropped the first two games of the series before ending the Dodgers three-game winning streak with a 5-2 win on Wednesday. Andruw Jones homered and Chipper Jones drove in a run as Atlanta stopped a three-game skid.

After seeing their brief winning streak halted, Los Angeles will hand the ball to its ace Brad Penny (10-1, 2.00). Penny is looking for his National League-leading 11th win for the second time after coming up short against Jake Peavy and San Diego on Saturday.

The majors league ERA leader was extremely effective in that game, yielding just one runs and five hits with seven strikeouts in seven innings in a no-decision.
