Braves third baseman Chipper Jones was held out of the lineup Sunday with a strained oblique and lower back pain. Since his batting average reached a season-high .335 on June 9, Jones is hitting .232 (59 for 254) over his last 70 games. He has only eight hits in his last 66 at-bats since Atlanta's 4-1 loss to Philadelphia on Aug. 16. Atlanta manager Bobby Cox hopes Jones can return to the lineup Tuesday when the Braves begin a three-game series at Houston.
