Back on July 31, 2007, former Georgia Tech infielder Mark Teixeira was traded from the Texas Rangers to the Atlanta Braves along with Ron Mahay for Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Beau Jones, Elvis Andrus, Matt Harrison and Neftali Feliz.

Last night was the first game against his old mates and he went 0-2 with a walk and a sac fly. He was also booed every time he took the plate.

Here is how Teixeira has done in his 114 games as a Brave compared to his last 114 games when he was a Texas Ranger…
