STOCK DOWN
• The Braves have lost five in a row, scoring just one run while batting .150 in those five losses.

• Pac Man Jones just finds trouble. He puts himself into difficult position by being at or near and Atlanta strip club late at night.

• Tank Johnson of the Bears also made the news again for the wrong reasons.

• Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson saw their cars fail inspection before a race in Sonoma, California.

• Astros pitcher Chad Qualls was fined and suspended for poor conduct on the field, throwing a ball into the stands.
