Pena Leads Dodgers Past Braves Despite Headache Battle
Los Angeles right-hander Alejandro Pena, sidelined by migraines, shut down the Braves 6-1 as Joe Beckwith secured the final out. Pena, speaking through an interpreter, said he felt strong and could have pitched longer despite early season headaches. He allowed seven hits and kept Atlanta off base beyond second base. Chambliss led Braves with three safeties, while Yeager and Landreaux fueled the Dodgers’ offense with a two-run first inning double and a fifth-inning homer. Tim Lollar earned his first win since Opening Day for San Diego in a separate note, faring well against Cincinnati. Houston moved into third in the West with Puhl’s triple and Cruz’s homer against San Francisco.
