John Smoltz looked as good as ever in his first outing since offseason elbow surgery.

J.D. Drew has been unstoppable all spring.

Smoltz needed only seven pitches to retire the side Saturday, and Drew hit another home run, leading an Atlanta Braves split squad to a 6-5 victory over the New York Yankees in Kissimmee, Fla.

“It was a little nerve racking, even after 17 seasons of doing this, but I felt really good about it,” Smoltz said. “I wanted to go out there and be smooth and obviously I was.”

Smoltz invited his good friend, golfer Tiger Woods, to watch him pitch and put on an efficient display. The All-Star closer threw six strikes in getting two groundouts and a soft fly in the sixth inning, his first appearance of the spring.
