Houston leads Atlanta 2-1 in the 8th inning but Atlanta has already protested the game. Their complaint? Houston needed a pitching change but the visitor's phone to the bullpen was not working. Garner went and talked to the Umpire and then sent a player to run all the way out to the bullpen and get they guy.

Atlanta manager Bobby Cox protested that the pitching change took too much time. It will be interesting to see what happens both with the game and the protest.

UPDATE: Tied 2-2 and we are into extra innings.

UPDATE 2: Atlanta wins with a 2 run homer in the 11th. I'm with Bobby Cox on this one. MLB should honor the protest and the game should be replayed.
