Chris Johnson hits three homers
Chris Johnson - 3B - Atlanta Braves
March 17, 2013 - 4:25 PM ET

Chris Johnson went 3-for-4 and homered off the Mets' Jon Niese on Sunday.

Johnson had been in a little 3-for-18 slump, but he's hitting .305 with three homers in 48 at-bats for the spring. Juan Francisco has been better, hitting .311 with four homers in 45 at-bats. We'd still like to see a platoon set up at third for the Braves, but it's possible Johnson will be the main guy early on.
