Atlanta Braves Lead NL in Extra Innings in 2011

A quick tangent away from Clemson to the Atlanta Braves after noticing that the Braves seemed to have played an unusually large number of extra inning games this year.  Stats updated through 5/25/2011.


Photobucket

The Braves lead the National League with 10 extra inning games played so far this year followed by the Padres who have played 9.

Photobucket

The Braves again lead the National League in "Extra Innings Played" with 20 tied with the Phillies after the Phillies played 10 extra frames last night.  Just an interesting factoid that could play a role down the stretch with the Braves bullpen having to eat more innings than their opponents.
