The Braves fall behind the Cardinals in the race for the best record in the National League with a 4 – 0 loss to the Brewers. The game is marred by a bench-clearing brawl in the 1st, after Carlos Gomez takes Paul Maholm deep to open the score, then admires the flight of the ball, flips his bat and trots slowly around the bases while shouting at Maholm. Gomez, Atlanta 1B Freddie Freeman and back-up C Gerald Laird are all ejected as a result of the melee; Gomez later explains that Maholm had twice hit him with pitches in previous games and it was his way of evening the score. Kyle Lohse needs only 89 pitches to pitch the two-hit shutout. Gomez will be handed a one-game suspension and a fine for his actions, as will Braves OF Reed Johnson, who although not ejected was the first player to leave the bench to join the confrontation.

For the second time this season, Yu Darvish of the Rangers flirts with a perfect game against the Astros. He retires the first 17 batters and he and C A.J. Pierzynski think they have struck out Jonathan Villar looking to end the 6th inning, but umpire Ron Kulpa calls the pitch a ball and Villar eventually draws a walk to break up the perfecto. An incensed Pierzynski tells the umpire what he thinks of his call and is ejected. Darvish allows his first and only hit, a solo homer by Carlos Corporan, with one out in the 8th. He strikes out a career-high 15 batters in 8 innings in the 2 – 1 win, with Joe Nathan pitching a hitless 9th for the save. Darvish’s bid for a perfect game in his first start of the season, on April 2nd, was foiled by Astro Marwin Gonzalez’s two-out single in the 9th. The Rangers have now won 13 of their last 14 games.
