Rising Braves Prospects Stun Yankees 8-3: Is a New Dynasty Emerging?
Although arguably the team’s three best prospects were not apart of the roster, the Atlanta Braves top prospects completed the third season of the Spring Breakout Series with an 8-3 win over the Yankees prospects on Saturday night, going up early and leading almost the whole way. Even with Didier Fuentes, JR Ritchie, and Cam Caminiti not being included on the roster, it didn’t seem to matter to this group.

On the pitching side Owen Murphy started, and it looked like it would be a promising outing as he struck out Top 20 prospect in baseball George Lombard Jr. swinging in the first at bat, but his stuff and performance were more up and down as he battled shaky command and a high pitch count. Murphy went 2.2 innings, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and four walks with three strikeouts. Murphy needed 71 pitches to go one out shy of three innings, though only 38 were strikes.
