Kelly Johnson left Monday night’s Atlanta Braves home opener after the third inning, not because of two fielding mishaps that notched Johnson one error and one huge favor owed to a homer statistician that should have tagged him with a second error, but because he aggravated his right knee.

Johnson is listed as day-to-day after he injured his knee as he scored from first base on a Yunel Escobar triple. Martin Prado replaced Johnson at second base and finished out the 12 inning loss to the Pirates.
