The Dodgers managed to jump on Tim Hudson early, with a Marcus Thames two-run double in the top of the first. But, they weren't done, as Juan Uribe hits a 3-run blast to open it up to a 5-0 advantage. The Braves would score a run next inning on a Heyward RBI single. The Dodgers would add on insurance in the 8th and 9th, as they win 8-1.

Los Angeles Dodgers:
Ted Lilly: CG, 10 H, ER, 2 BB, 8 K
Juan Uribe: 4-5, HR, 4 RBI, 2B

The scoring began in the top of the fourth, where the Nats are able to muster an RBI base hit. Then, in the bottom of the fifth, an RBI base hit from the Braves ties the game up at 1. Washington adds on two more runs with a LaRoche 2-run homer in the seventh, and then another run from an RBI double. The Braves would try to come back, but fail, after an RBI double from Ross off the bench, as the Braves lose Opening Day, 4-2.

The scoring began in the top of the second, when Jason Heyward destroys a changeup up in the zone for a solo shot to make it 1-0. Then, in the top of the fifth, Jay Gibbons destroys a two-run home run down the right field lin-- Wait, wait, hold everything! The umpires go into the booth to review it. The ruling on the field is uph-OVERTURNED! What! Well, that's okay. Now, Gibbons has another shot at it. Gibbons hits the pitch...this one's going deep! But the center fielder makes the play against the wall. Then, in the next frame, the Braves make a crucial mistake, when after an Uggla error/stolen base, a ground out occurs. But, Gibbons checks the runner over at third and throws it wide, and the run scores to tie up the ball game! Then, Ryan Hanigan, the next batter, hits a solo shot, so the Reds take the lead! Another error will take place in the bottom of the sixth when Brian McCann throws it over the second baseman's head checking on the runner after catching a pop out. The runner would score. That's all either team will get, as the Braves lose, 3-1.
