McCann Injured

According to AtlantaBraves.com Brian McCann left Saturday's game with a cut on his right ring finger. The unfortunate accident occurred when Mark Teixeira fouled a ball that was tipped into McCann's finger. Brian McCann had a scheduled day off tomorrow and is listed as day-to-day.

Brian McCann has probably had the most difficult spring of any of the Braves. The only thing it seems McCann doesn't have on his mind is whether he's the starting catcher. The spring began for McCann starting for team USA in the World Baseball Classic. He had to familiarize himself with the likes of Jake Peavy and Roy Oswalt before the tournament even started.
Once Team USA was bounced from The WBC McCann had to then familiarize himself with the Braves brand new starting rotation. The Braves added new starters Kenshin Kawakami, Derek Lowe, and Javier Vazquez.
