    Chipper Jones had bad news for Derek Lowe after the pitcher hit his first career homer.

    "He has got a few more to go before he catches me," Jones said with a laugh.

    Two milestone home runs -- Jones' 450th and Lowe's first -- gave Atlanta the early lead and Lowe combined with three relievers on a three-hitter as the Braves beat the Washington Nationals 3-1 on Wednesday night.
