<h3>Braves look to wrap up series win vs. Cards</h3>

St. Louis (44-50) at Atlanta (52-46) 8:05 pm EDT


ATLANTA (Ticker) -- Coming off a six-hit, six-RBI performancefrom relative unknown Willie Harris, the Atlanta Braves willtarget their third win against the St. Louis Cardinals on Sundayin the series finale of a four-game set.


Harris became the second player in Atlanta history with six hitsin a game in Saturday's 14-6 win and the seventh player inBraves franchise history to reach the mark. Contributions likethe one Harris provided Saturday have spurred Atlanta to 14 winsover their last 22 games.


With hopes of winning the four-game series from the defendingWorld Series champions, the Braves will send out rookie Jo-JoReyes (0-1, 8.68 ERA), who will aiming for his first career win.His last chance came in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the CincinnatiReds, when he surrendered four runs over 6 1/3 innings.

With only two lifetime starts to his credit, this outing will behis first against the Cardinals.


St. Louis will respond with Brad Thompson (6-4, 5.06), who willtry to end a four-game winless streak. Included in that stretchwas Tuesday's 4-0 loss vs. the Florida Marlins in which heallowed three runs over six frames.


The righthander will be making his first start against theBraves, although he tossed two scoreless innings withoutreceiving a decision against Atlanta in 2005.
