MLB Games Fixed?

Braves vs. Brewers Box Score

I had the strangest thing happen last night while watching some of the Braves vs. Brewers game.  I was busy doing other things and had just missed seeing Chipper Jones bat.  Since he’s tearing up the ball lately, I wanted to see his current BA (how much over .400 that is).  So I cruised on over to the CNN SI website and saw the strangest thing.  While looking at the box score, I noticed the game had gone final and the Braves won 8-1.  Here’s the thing though, the TV was currently showing 6-1 Braves in the top of the 8th.  Is the telecast SO far behind (1.5 innings), or is something else going on?  I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but it would see pretty odd for a TV broadcast to be THAT far behind the live game.  I was going to dismiss it as an error, but when I checked the final box score this morning the final score was in fact, 8-1 (like you see above).  Strange coincidence, or something else?
