Grilli (back) took the loss Tuesday, giving up one earned run on two hits with one strikeout in the bottom of the ninth inning against the Reds. This was Grilli's first appearance in six days after being sidelined by a sore back. He came in during a tie game and gave up a one-out single to Brayan Pena and then Devin Mesoraco hit a game-winning pinch-hit double. While it was tough to see him surrender runs Tuesday, it was nice to see that he was healthy enough to pitch. He should continue to operate as the Braves' closer going forward.
