ATLANTA -- Interim Braves manager Brian Snitker is used to answering questions
about his teams inability to score.
Adidas Ultra
Boosts For Sale .On a rare night, Snitker was delighted to watch
Atlantas offense score at least one run in six innings.When you do, (the
hitters) kind of relax and make it look easy, which it isnt, Snitker said. Its
just one of those things you ride, a crest in a game. Hopefully we can build on
it tomorrow.Ender Inciarte broke a tie with an RBI single in the fifth inning
and the offensively challenged Braves had 15 hits to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates
8-4 on Wednesday night.Last in the major leagues in runs, the Braves crossed the
plate eight times after the Pirates took a 4-0 lead in the first.Pittsburgh,
which began the day two games out of a wild-card spot, has lost four five.
Atlanta improved to 17-39 at Turner Field, the worst home record in the
majors.Pirates starter Jeff Locke (8-7) blew the four-run lead and was chased on
Inciartes single. He allowed nine hits, five runs, two walks and struck out one
in 4 1/3 innings. Locke is 0-2 with an 11.91 ERA in his last three starts.I got
ahead of plenty of guys, just couldnt put anybody away, Locke said.Atlanta
scored two runs in the sixth and one in the seventh off Juan Nicasio, taking an
8-4 lead on Adonis Garcias RBI single, Matt Kemps sacrifice fly and Erick Aybars
RBI triple.Braves starter Rob Whalen (1-0), making his first career appearance,
gave up four hits, four runs, four walks and struck out five in five
innings.Whalen put himself in a 4-0 hole on Matt Joyces 11th homer, a three-run
shot, and a run that scored on a wild pitch. He labored early, throwing balls on
32 of his first 62 pitches.I was just trying to battle through it the best I
can, Whalen said. What an amazing job by the offense to come through there and
pick me up and keep chipping that whole game. It makes it a little
easier.Atlanta crept back in the game on Anthony Reckers RBI groundout in the
second, Freddie Freemans RBI double in the third and Reckers RBI double, which
made it 4-3 in the fourth.The Braves took a 5-4 lead in the fifth on Nick
Markakis sacrifice fly and Inciartes single. Inciarte went 3 for 4 and has hit
safely in a season-best 14 straight games. He has a .377 average since July
19.Joyce, in the lineup for slumping Andrew McCutchen, is hitting .294 with
three homers and nine RBI in his last 10 starts.TRAINERS ROOMStarling Marte was
hit by two pitches but stayed in the game. The first one in the first grazed his
left hand, but the next one in the fifth hit his left hand solidly. Marte has
been hit by 15 pitches, third-most in the NL. ... C Francisco Cervelli is still
being evaluated after getting hit in the left side of the helmet by a pitch on
Tuesday. Cervelli, whos had concussion issues in his career, left the game after
noticing his helmet was cracked as he stood at first base a few minutes
later.ROTATION ROUNDABOUTThe Braves have used 13 starting pitchers this season,
their most since 1987 when they lost 92 games. The Atlanta franchise record of
15 was set in 1975 when the Braves lost 94 games.ROSTER MOVESThe Braves optioned

122-111. MOSCOW -- Russia is trying to stop the retractable field at a World Cup
stadium from shaking.Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Mutko said the field at the
68,000-seat stadium in St. Petersburg has been experiencing problems with the
mechanism that allows it to be stored outside and wheeled in for games.He denied
it will cause further delays for the arena, which is due to host Confederations
Cup games next summer and one of the World Cup semifinals in 2018.The issue is
that the field rolls into the stadium on an unstable base and needs to be
strengthened, Mutko said while visiting the stadium Thursday in comments
reported by local media, adding that the problem was nothing unusual and the
stadium would still meet its completion date next month.An issue was identified
with the pitch stabilization during an inspection by FIFA officials on Monday,
footballs world governing body said in an e-mailed statement.The authorities
have acknowledged the challenges and it was agreed that engineers will shortly
propose a solution to ensure a stable playing field.

Online. FIFA will monitor the situation.Earlier, the deputy
governor of St. Petersburg said FIFA inspectors also had concerns about access
to the stadium and nearby training fields, Russian agency R-Sport reported.The
venue, which has been hit by repeated construction delays, allows the field to
be stored outside and retracted for games, allowing the grass to grow better and
avoid damage when non-sports events are held in the stadium.Construction on the
stadium, located on an island in the River Neva estuary, began a decade ago and
has seen repeated delays and dramatic cost increases to around 43.8 billion
rubles ($690 million). The company building the stadium was replaced earlier
this year following a dispute with the city government.As well as the shaking
field, other problems related to the construction of the stadium have included
embezzlement inquiries and the deaths of at least eight workers.
