Arcia takes a FB at the knees for a strike, the gets a meatball slider just outside middle, hits it hard to the right side, Cabrera dives to his right, gets it, gets up, throws him out, saving a two run single. Inning over.

5-1 Braves, going bottom 3.

Rice, Cabrera and Volpe for the Yanks in the 4th. Rice and Cabrera have never faced Sale. This will not likely be pretty.
