Ernie Johnson: A peach of an announcer, a prince of a man | Mark Bradley
Ernie Johnson Sr. died at age 87 Friday night, his wife Lois at his side. Ernie had been in declining health for a while, and he’d just been moved to a hospice.

Brian McCann began his minor league rehabilitation Friday night in Triple-A Gwinnett, going 1-for-3 with an RBI single, in what the Braves hope will be a short stint.

"If he’s good, he’ll maybe go Sunday," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "Sunday at the earliest."

Players, others turn out in record numbers to honor "6″ | Atlanta Braves
He told a story about the time Klesko threw his helmet and it rolled down to Bobby and might have nudged his leg, and how Bobby stomped on it angrily, as if trying to put out a fire. "Klesko peaked down there, and you know that commercial about how you want to get away?," Justice said, smiling. "Klesko wanted to get away. I don’t remember Klesko ever throwing another helmet. If he did, I know he didn’t throw it near Bobby."
