Open Thread 6/5: Braves at Dodgers #2

The Braves are swinging like it's April again. Nate McLouth can't field OR hit. Tommy Hanson has been a bit wild, but is keeping his team in the game.

Dodgers lead 2-0 in the 5th.

Runz for the Braves thread!

wait this is the wrong half of the inning for runs....
Hanson dominating thread
Fine, I came here.

Now what?

glaus bomb thread

Where’s my cookie?

Dang, I thought there would be presents.
we are all here

is that not a gift in itself

naked pics of CB and bigjoe are on the way.

I was promised fudgicles, Bart. Where are the fudgicles?

But if I go out, they’ll see by doodle!

I can’t believe that the Braves have played in 20 straight games! Gadzooks

when i go to the day game next Thursday

I’m fully expecting the C-Squad to be out there

Maybe the C-Squad will win it just for you.

The vaunted Conrad start

You’re right man.. Blanco, Conrad, and Ross for sure

Melky in RF too. And we’ll probably beat Dan Haren like 14-0 with KK on the mound

You should know better by now

Word. He’ll no-hit us until we drive up his pitch count. Then they’ll bring in the BP, and we’ll pulverize them!!!

Technically,

the Braves squad has played in 55 straight games.

careful

here Tommy

I'd like to see...

Brooks Conrad at 3rd again.

not over Omar

I’d just like to see him in a game once a week or so.

Question, this little bump in the road of our scoring...

is it attributed to:
1. Their pitching
2. Our offense
3. We need a day of rest
4. Other (elaborate)

all of the above?

I usually shave every day and i didn’t shave today or yesterday.

Combination of

1-2

Kershaw was dealing last night in parts of the game and Broxton is just unhittable.

Billingsley has had a sharp curve tonight and can throw it for strikes, makes him a bit tougher.

We keep getting runners on, but somehow Mclouth is up

4. Other

We need a sex ban

not true

Saw SportScience today.. they debunked that. Sex actually increases stamina and strength.

SAW THAT TOO!

you guys didn't know this before?

it used to be the excuse before all my high school football, basketball and baseball teams to get some

are you serious?

hahaha

yeah. good times man. i fucking envy the u. of arizona basketball players. they like snap their fingers and they get some.

Well

Somebody please get McLouth laid

This needs to be on the front page.

I pity the gal if he’s anything like his offense

[insert baseball pun here]

Yeah,

If other parts of his body are as limp as his arm……

you two have no mercy tonight

Sigh.

/drops trou

Yay!

I’m sure somebody over here will do the same if Kung Fu Panda starts scuffling.

West Coast time zone

It’s hard for me to adjust, can only imagine it’s tough on the players.

SIT THE FUCK DOWN MANNY!

Not a strike

but we will take it

Ha ha. Umpire fail again
front-door slider

need to do that more often

definetly not a strike

lol

ooooo Manny mad lol

A word or 12 lmao

Best K tonight

Hinske revenge

Manny should be pissed…. oh well

Mac

FAILURE

He would have probably thrown it into CF anyways

haha

true true

might as well call is a positive since he did not make it to third

What was that?

Mac never saw him, but he would have been a dead duck

Not sure how hanson does it

but really it is a solid outing

is tommy done?

100 pitches flat

Well

Tommy is turning into KK

We need to get some runs

Now lets score some runs

Hang on....

that pontoon was smoking fast.

that one only went 58 feet, but whatever!

Chavez in the pen

CY YOUNG CY YOUNG CY YOUNG

haha and the MVP is on the bench

chavez loosening

game over.

he has had

two good outings in a row

Is it just me,

or does Chip not know how to pronounce ‘Chavez’ properly?

About time...

Membership fully active!

Did you get the premium membership?

or just the normal one?

Normal...

I think? How do you get a premium membership? Wire money to you?

send me 20 bucks

and ill give you mod status super premium membership

Twenty?

That’s it? What a deal! ACT NOW and get another membership, two for the price of one!

Well premium mebership gets you stuff like Justin Bieber breaking news, nude pics of CBWilk and and pictures of kreese555’s hot girlfriend.

Wanna join?

For sure

Will take nude pics of the second, but not the first.

to be honest, i think the pics of CB are better than kreese555’s girlfriend. Other TC members would probably agree with me lol

Lol

Trust hm, he knows of what he speaks.

WHERE BE THE TROLLS?

y'all are HILARIOUS

hahah much love kreese. at leas you’re getting some. i’m on like a 5-month drought

Call me when you hit the 25th year.

You have values and morals though and you stick to them…unlike a lot of people i’ve met lately

If this is a jab at me...

then, touche. however she had a really nice ass…no boobs, but a nice ass…

Yeah…we’ll go with that answer.

I haven't seen her since that night!

ya bunch of bungholes!

Could be worse

You could be in Utah

Hopefully this isn't my sig talking.

But i have a feeling we are going to win this game late.

be quiet

so much for being positive. Well, another loss it is.

please stop talking
stop

what the fuck is going on people…

jinxasaurus, imo

We’re losing right now. Can’t really jinx a comback…

yes you can

Sorry for being positive. You seriously need to chill out… I wasn’t trying to be an asshole..

Hey everyone, lets stop watching. We are going to lose..

What the fuck is with the hostility… I was being serious.

where did the offense go....

RUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZIJUSTREALIZEDITSMIDNIGHTRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZ!!

i'm going to assume that topic ends midnight
this ump likes to fuck with hinske
WTF

not even close to a strike

This UMP is horrible

Billing must be on the Home Plate Umps fanasty team

seriously

not a single ball thrown to Hinske was in the strike zone, but the one furthest out was a called strike…

so of course he has to swing

Can Hinske and Esco at least get on base this inning?

I just wanna clear McLouth.

Hinske

getting screwed by the Ump

Graphic

I thought this was family appropriate.

/cries

/cries some more

/grabs cup of ice, hesitates, decides it would be inappropriate

"ouchie" - chip
Hahahaha

Nate McLouth took it in the face earlier.

good

he needs a wake-up call

what happened

ate shit while running into the wall. it was bad.

That was an awesome

Freeze Cam

hope he was paid up front lol
Hahahahahahahahahhaha
wow

Hanson still out there

sigh

maybe a day off for Troy and Heyward then.

Guess tomorrow will be
Prado 3B
Melky RF
McCann
Hinske 1B
Escobar SS
McLouth CF
Infante LF
?

depends on outcome of today's game

if we lose, still the A team

Yeah…I wouldn’t even watch. And Huddy would probably just get on the plane to AZ.

i mean

at some point they have to have a day off.

huddy will hit a homerun and throw a cg shut out
wouldnt that

be a headline.

Huddy

Tomorrow will really be a tough game if we don't have a 2nd baseman
Nate to the DL

for broken face and crap bat

haha

+1

put him on there with Ollie

should i feel really really guilty that i was kind of... hoping... he was hurt?
force us

to bring up Schafer..

I dont care if he is not hitting, might as well try someone else

Schafer

honestly wouldnt be too much of an upgrade at this point. his wrist still isnt 100% and he is still getting used to live pitching. people forget he missed basically an entire season of baseball

we have no one else?
Dont worry guys

whoa first i thought that was premature and then i noticed no rainbow... so we're OKAY!!!

NO JINX I LOVE IT

Yea, only infantry right now.
why is the first lil fella 1337?
Slang for "leet" as in elite
quantum laser eyes
he has friggin laser beams coming out of his friggin head
oh you meant what's 1337, haha
Would those be

some pokemons?

No, thats Bunchie, the llamasaurus..

Glausasaurus is a sub-species. Glausi llamasauri

Good Work but....

the middle one just has a feather on his head

i think he’s trying to say Native American llamasaurus are slower than others. RACIST!

Kind of like this guy?

+ eleventy billion
Drosselmeyer llamasauras?
Jamey Caroll

I hate this guy

i think its time for Tommy

to go

Facial Hair Mound Conference.

bpk...you in here?
roger mcdowwel (sp) was in a seinfeld episode?
one of the best one's ever.

Are you under the age of 15?

Are you

over the age of 18?

Are you his mother?

No

I am his father.

if not, please clear the pool.

Clear the pool?

what?

At pools, they say over the loudspeaker, “It’s now time for adult swim. Anyone under the age of 18, please clear the pool.”

Reference

understanding fail on my part

You and that son of yours need more pop culture.

Nah, it was too deep. No pun intended.

Should have gotten it

Never actually been to a huge public pool, and haven’t watched adult swim for a few years

the one where Kramer

gets spit on, it was him

there was a second spitter
I thought

McDowell was the spitter, but Kramer thought it was Keith Hernandez

That is correct.

this is correct

yeah

he was in that one about the self-absorbed people who thought they were funny. and Kramer, who actually was funny

holy shit i just looked it up i didn't realize our roger was the one that played for the mets...

that’s so legit

Holy shit, WAYYYYY to close to FUPA’s FUPA there.

jeez

atleast Tommy Ks him

5 ks for tommy

Right in the face.

That’s what i was thinking.

Tommy pitched a decent pack of gum tonight.

 RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS

Top of the seventh? Dodger Stadium should begin clearing out any minute now.

Wow Tommy

great outing really 118 pitches..

only 2 runs, I wish all of our starters could give us 6 IP and only 2ER

He deserved some support. We’re KKing him tonight.

how about a 6 pack?

RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS RUNS

I'm amazed Tommy made it through 6 innings....

We need to score some runs now to get him the W.

alright

We got two innings, got to get 2 runs…

at least make it one, because getting 2 off of Broxton would be really lucky

I believe this is the end for Tommy tonight. They better not bring in Chavez.

Not yet we'll need him to close

Walt Disney Concert Hall. Gorgeous building.

Hanson finished the inning strong. Now lets score some runs and Hanson they win.

get Hanson the win
Is it time to give Nate some bench time to regroup?

If not now, then when?

Esco

with a single, nice

No vidro, no vidro, no vidro, big money, no whammies

so

do we ask Mclouth to bunt him over here

i asked nate to not suck...he's not listening
McLouth up...

fuck.

If royhobbs were here, he’d bad mouth McLouth so much, it would force him to get on base.

Yunel - please don't waste this!

Need to get Tommy a W....

Hit and run?

hit “attempt” and run*

Wow.

Escobar really picking it up. Now if only we can get Nates BAbip to get back in order

Nate

blows trade for Rickie Weeks

i changed the channel and Esco singled..

should i turn it back off again?

Go watch King of the Hill.

billingsley

at 105 pitches

No worries

Nate is up!

Joe giving Chip NO rope this evening.
nate

just bunt

It looks as if he is trying to get lucky just to get a bat on the ball.

Yunel gets the hit.

Now it would be nice if McOUT would be functional.

OH MY GOD A HIT

IOUNFOIENWIENFUWUONFOUWNROUFNWOUFNOUNWEOUFNWEOU

He remembered he’s getting paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to not suck at a children’s game.

FINALLY

Nate get something done

HAHA

what a base hit for mclouth

accident

Heads up baserunning by Esco, good job.

Nate got a Rick Flair

chip caray fails on the ric flair woooo
Their is a God

This is how we do it

500th hit for Nate

Conrad up now

nitram is going to get 500 hits this year
Conrad

no Vidro please

BROOKS

MAGIC TIME

Conrad is here to save us....
Conrad?

Oh boy.

i mean...

Oh boy a hit!!!

Conrad

refuses to lay off low and inside

WHERE IS THE MVP DAMNIT?

Gotta get something out of this.

I like runs more than cookie monster likes cookies
(btw hi everyone. Just checking in)

magical grand slam conrad
MVP MVP MVP

Brooks

I totally said this earlier....

Melky who?

/hangs head in shame

Melky woulda hit a 3-run HR though

Pssst...

Rally killer

oh wow

Conrad. havent seen him in a while

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! RUNSNSNSNSNSNSNSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

yessssssssssss
wow

smoked that bitch

BROOOOOOKS!!!!!

That one was almost intercepted.

lol

It reminded me of a tipped football.

Books

Conradicalness

The RAW DOG does it again
BROOKS CONRAD

Man-Crush

Ok

Prado bunt…

then rely on Omar for sac fly..

No way Jose.

I mean, honestly, WTF?

why not?

runner on third less than two outs, but a hit scores two

He’s our best hitter. Let him hit.

And Infante hasn’t been so great lately.

Bobby agrees with UP
AHHHH

PLAY CONRAD MORE HE GET RUNZZZZ

He does well under pressure but not in other situations.

This is the time on Sprockets when we score.

You can thank me later

He hit that so hard, not even a glove could stop it.

Benny “The Jet” Rodriguez did that to my glove one summer, the one where I got into the biggest pickle of all time.

three straight singles

as opposed to three crooked singles?

Don't ask

don’t tell

Everything falls into place

if you can just get a little production out of Nate.

From now on i dont care what conrad does bcuz he hit that grand slam

M

Really Conrad hasn't had a start since the slam
WE WANT MOOOOOORE RUNS!!!!!!
Mclouth hit

was lucky as hell

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVSbbEIbWsg

haha

I’m a man I’m 40

hahaha

rec’d

i’m gonna use this one in the future

PRADO PRADO PRADO PRADO PRADO PRADO PRADO PRADO PRADO!!!!

Hey Marteeen, you’re an ALL STAR!

YEAAAHH

WOOT WOOT RUNZ RUNZ WOOT WOOT RUNZ RUNZ WOOT WOOT RUNZZZZZZ

LETS GO MARTEEEEEN

The infantry has proved to be too powerful.
PRADO PRADO PRADO
A bunt?

Really?

Prado - do not oblige the ground ball!

bunting? you have got to be shitting me

i swear..
Your mother

would not be proud

Bunting makes sense

2nd and 3rd only 1 out, sac fly ties the game hit takes the lead

not when the league’s hitting leader is up there

he hits a lot of ground ball singles

cant risk the Vidro here..

Yes you can, because he gets more hits than anyone else.

exactly my thought...

no it doesn’t. your expected run total is higher if he swings. your odds of winning are higher if he swings.

Bobby Cox, ladies and gents.

Well we are

in the NL

EVERYONE SILENCE

And we will scoree

Oh Marteeen, so fundamentally sound

I love it.

It worked but I’m not sure I agree with it. Of course Bobby has been doing this baseball thing for a few more years than I have.

well it paid off

Let’s gomar

Gomar, love it

that’s his new name!

Come on imhotep!

The NL hits leader is bunting. I love it

yea

makes NO SENSE

come on Omar

HEEEEEEEEEEE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!

shutting up now.
Bobby is a genius
nice hitting

Omar!!!

FUCK YEAH BABY!

YEAHHHHHHHHH!

GOMAR!

I <3 cookies

RRRRRRUUUUMMMMMZZZZ!!!!!

TAIL LIGHTS CITY
PENIS!
I meant Bob Saget
freudian slip
Actually wanted to say

Snipe!

BRAVES LEAD!!

OMAR!!

Bobby knows

what hes doing

OMAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

bunt works out

folks

Omar comes through for the Lead!

Chant it with me...

GOMAR
GOMAR
GOMAR!

INWINTE

INWINTE
INWINTE

Jack it J-Hey!

When nate doesn't make an out we can score.
see...

We just needed a break in Nate’s FAIL tornado.

ok

just no Chavez now

HEYWARD IS GOING DEEP

IM CALLING IT NOW

DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?
IS THIS REAL LIFE?

I liked how once the Braves released all of those, the Braves went like 0-7

Around the same time, the Giants unveiled a PR campaign for the postseason titled “We’re in this!” at which point we were most decidedly out of it entirely.

Meanwhile, KK is in the dugout kicking over racks of bats and helmets, screaming "YOU FUCKERS!!!"
haha

this never gets old..

how do you say it Japanese

To be fair, his interpreter is screaming “YOU FUCKERS!!!”

KK

just punched Jo Jo in the face

Warming up the truck….

If they bring in Chavez I’m going to cry. They should throw him in the ravine.

i hope

we see Kimbrel

The thing you did there…I see it.

How about

Venters
Moylan
Wagner

i say

Kimbrel
Venters
Wagner

3-0 to Heyward

they are going to walk him

that’s alright. McCann needs to get a blast in

EVERYONE VIRTUALLY MAGICALLY INTERNET CHOP AKA ICHOP

Your caps lock is broken.

MORE RUNS MORE RUNS MORE RUNS MORE RUNS MORE RUNS
Quick Mac

grab the glasses

10second lasik

quick!

lol

he needs something sheesh.

Heyward

walks

Heyward - Come on Heap

Must…stay…awake….
/snores

I like Mac's chances

with the ball up there

NO WAY

that was outside

My fantasy squad

would approve of a 3-run HR

Same. I have Prado J-Hey Mac and Chip.

2 run double works!

watch the high cheese mac.

Why is Mac not wearing his glasses, again?

Meteors or something.

Too many hot chicks in LA

Wanted to look cool.

Probably related to all those creepy letters I sent him.

that outside strike

is back

I smell a 3-run Homer
ouch

horrible swing

MAC

YES YES YES

MAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO MORE!!!!

still mad at me?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

/in sleep, starts screaming at television

MAC

OPPO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Heyward

SCORES!

HEYWARD SAFE

MAC AT 3RD

"Nothing was gonna stop the Hey-Train."
Triple and a run

WOW! He made a great slide!

“Nothing was gonna stop the Hey-train”.

lol chip

IN PLAY, RUN(S)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Might be the prettiest sight on the net.

Mac

with a double, could be scored a triple

BRIAN FUCKING MCCANN, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
The Hey- Train?!?!

Really Chip

Simply

Awesome

lol he almost hit that homer!!
The Hey Train. Chip +1
Hahahaha!!!!

Scorpio!
He’ll sting you with his dreams, of power and wealth.
Beware of… Scorpio!
His twisted twin obsessions are his plot to rule the world
And his employee’s health.
He’ll welcome you into his lair
Like the nobleman welcomes his guest!
With free dental care and a stock plan that helps you invest!
But beware of his generous pensions
Plus three weeks paid vacation each year
And on Fridays the lunch room serves hot dogs and burgers and beer!
He loves German beer!

Scorpio: You will notice, my new best friend, that we are pretty casual around here.
Homer: Yes, sir. I will notice that. Very casual, Mr. Scorpion.
Scorpio: Don’t call me that. It’s Mr. Scorpio, but don’t call me that either. Call me Hank!

Homer, when you go home tonight there’s gonna be another story on your house.

I wish he’d buy me the Broncos.

Eh, no thanks.

Mac says

FUCK YOUR GLASSES

Jason Heyward fucking flies around the bases

it’s like watching a fucking horse run.

Well...

He’s about the size of a horse.

HAHAHAHAHAHA HEYWARD WAHOOOO!!!!!
how do you not love Heyward!! lol

He is unstoppable, not even his own coaches can stop him lol

WHERE ARE YOU NEGATIVE NANNIES NOW??????????

5 inches higher and it’s gone. Damn.

I dont know

I think a Mac triple is more entertaining than a Mac homer

It was a double and an advance on the throw, unfortunately.

My bad

But I stand with my point

From the Radio

It sounds like catchers should fear Jason Heyward coming home. Can’t really blame Martin if he wet himself a little.

JHey says take this Shitner:)
haha

ok I just bust out laughing

he is smart enough to know Snick don't know shit!

You’re on fire tonight! Love it ;-)

New gameplan for the Bravos:

If Brian Snitker stops you, run through it. If he sends you, stop like your life depended on it.

Lol

/starts sleep walking into the wall

lol yea we almost called the 3 run homer there
Just saw a commercial for the "Hey Team". looks like a good movie
What's up everyone?

Just got back from a party at the boss’s house. Anyone else take a sick pleasure in watching Manny Ramirez try to play LF? It’s like a train wreck, you can’t look away.

This team makes me wanna scream

Photobucket

Is this inning gonna be forever?

Probably not, but is this real life?

i got yelled at for calling a comeback earlier. I guess "jinxes’’ are frowned upon here. My mistake.

You gotta put a headline on that thing so we can close it.

did snitker put up the stop sign to heyward?
yep

Heyward

almost ran him over

Brian McCann hitting: look horrible on a breaking pitch

crush the next pitch

WAIT BAIT MASH
fuck yeah. go Braves.

makes me feel better about watching the G-Braves lose today. We need better hitting prospects

well

at least we know we can hit bad pitching. at least bad relief pitching.

Someone call the cops...

We just assaulted another bullpen.

-C

Hey Train

Chip can make anything kinda cool and ruin it

HEY WHOEVER TOLD US THAT DODGERS HAD A 78 PERCENT CHANCE OF WINNING

I’LL SAY IT AGAIN NEVER TELL ME THE FUCKING ODDS

that would be me

/fail

see: username
BTW

it is now

ATL 93%

you did not

just say that…

haha

cant help it

I am a numbers junkie

You want to see how hard I can punch??

-C

haha love you

Thanks for getting us out of that jam.

Aye aye, General Solo!

OMG! I didn't even notice that Mac took third on the throw home....

Wowwwzzzz

warning track power would be nice

thanks Glaus

Glausosaurus wants to eat
MORE RUNS MORE RUNS MORE RUNS MORE RUNS MORE RUNS

Is everyone having a good morning

lol yeaaaaaaaaa

Not for another 21 minutes. How’s your Sunday so far?

I am going to get no sleep after the game is over. I take hours to get to sleep. Plus i have to get up at like 8:30. I see myself falling asleep at church.

It’s 9:40. WAKE UP PEOPLE!

Time

to start another winning streak!

KNOCK ON WOOOOD
no Saito

calm down a little. EOF and Moylan aren’t making me feel too good right now.

Glaus just missed his 5th HR in 7 games

on that last pitch

should be 6th...effing Ibanez

oh yeah. how the hell did that grandpa jump to bring it back?

I like how

Glaus almost broke his bat

If he catches that...we score

Almost woulda preferred him catch that.

check that*

Hey guys. Just getting out of the Joe where our Rome Braves lost on a walkoff single to the riverdogs. Second piece of bad news, I missed mycal Jones first inning homer as I was walking in.
Good news – the ball went out right as we were walking up and I grabbed his homerun ball from the middle of the street! How are we looking tonight? Are the hits lucky or are we swinging good?

Whoa

almost made a nice catch

Missed it by THAT much.

dammit ethier

now glaus is gonna have to homer

THE ORACLE RETURNS!!!

cue X-Files music

GLAUSOSAUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DINGER DINGER DINGER
GLAUSOSAUR

RAWR

can we get the picture!

Beard is not here
YESSSSSSSSSSS
Glausosaurus!!!

ROAR!!!!

2 run homer
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
I cordially invite you to feast upon my thick Alabama cock, Los Angeles.

That was, dare I say it… sexy?! ;-)

The Dodgers make me say and do odd things at times. They are that enraging.

POWAH!!!!!!!!!!!

FEAR the Glausosaur.
put up that Glausosaurus!!
Man of Troy!
Troy goes YARD!


ATL "Bullpen Killers" Bravos!
WHERE ALL DA HATERS AT?

Photobucket

He still only got “Singles” Powah! Joking!

My favorite pic besides the victory ones.

The extra point is GOOD!! lol

Falcons 7, um wait there is no team in LA lol

Just sayin'

The only out we have so far is the one we gave up with the league’s leading hitter…

Just sayin’

But we are winning, all is good.

I may pee myself

Thank god for their bullpen!

Wow another hit lol
AHHHHH

I cant take it . .

Move Freeman to LF and keep Troy at 1B.

ESCO up again lol
I just might use ALL the jerseys tonight!

GLAUSOSAUR HUNGRY

he works up an appetite satisfying all his haters

“Da Big Boss” Troy Glaus!

Sign Troy for another year now!
i have a feeling

Esco will hit a DP

We thought that the last time and he started this rally.

You had to say it
the force is strong with this one.
ITS NOT JUNE

IT’S MAY 37TH!

Damn

I had to check and see if I still had my PS3 on. Stuff like this only happens in video games

Esco might as well HR here

he’s due like no other…

That Nate hit woke them All up )

“If Nate can do it, so can we”

Not gonna let him show them up and humiliate them

Ok Bobby....

Bring on Martinez out of the Pen.

Has he even pitched in a game yet?

one

game i think

Esco failed....but who cares? lol
Well that was

something I have not seen in a while Esco vidro

esco:

“meh, 2 hits is enough for me today”

esco DP

BUT NOONE CARES! BECAUSE WE HAD A 7-RUN SEVENTH!

this!

Plus he has been raking in this whole series. Bump him up to the 2 spot.

Please no peter moylan
That

Cannot stay awake….reboot system.

That's about right Esco

back to his normal, loveable self.

Yea let us make this as painless as possible lol

I’d go with Kimbrel and EOF in the 7th, Venters and PeMo in the 8th and Wags for the 9th if we need him.

I thought EOF already came in.

Nope. Hanson can get the W.

No.

Braves haven’t used anyone from their bullpen yet.

TROY HAS TOO MUCH POWAH

Hinske with a hit and esco hit into a vidro

I'll take it

TWSS!

You really need some kind of TWSS handbook.

?

You never use it in the proper context.

fair enough…no more TWSS out of me.

come on bobby

be smart.

Martinez
Chavez
Kimbrel

Ha ha!! Love this team!

who doesn’t?

Phillies and Mets jump to mind.

I don’t think Mets fans like the Mets.

Can’t blame them

Anyone here

get the new BlackBerry Bold 9650?

This thing is amazing.

how new is it?
well

came out a week or so ago for Sprint and Thursday for Verizon

Hmm, so is it a 3rd gen bold?
or it has some improvements over the 2nd gen?
Gather around kids...

And hear the tale of a man named Troy and the never-ending Month of May.

fun fact

may was named because troy’s torrid hitting would prompt opposing pitchers to beg, “thank you sir, may i have another”

And asking coaches, “May I walk this guy?”

WINNER WINNER CHICKN DINNER

Guy, is that you?

MVP is in left…why not center field? :(

You mean moving McLouth to left?

He’s too quick

JHey running over Shitner

seeing that will never get old!

Heyward was thinking

get out of the way old man, you dont know what you are doing

And he was right!
Melky in at LF

going to be due up

Venters

in, I like it

Venters pitching

McLouth and Melky are due up 1-2 in the 8th…we’re gonna score more runs.

With a win today

the Braves are tied for the best record in the NL

too bad the effing padres

can’t beat the phils

Go to hell Furcal

Man, I hate that guy more than I probably should.

Completely

permissible

Do not for a second feel guilty about that.

Ugh...Bobby

why pitch Venters now? Shoulda brought in a righty for Furcal and Kemp and then a LOOGY for Ethier.

The Vulture is in
Kemp

always looks like he does not care

I wouldnt care either

if I had Rhianna to go home to every night

What if

she threw your Ferrari keys out the window?

No

spare set? That would be your fault.

Typical

woman argument.

Well

at least there’s one girl you get to talk to you

Then I would call Chris Brown

…………..he’s a locksmith

MUST STAY AWAKE!
/dumps cold water on face
AYEEEEEEEEE

Give Venters a K....
Venters with the K

nice

Who wants to bet

the Braves take a pitcher with their first draft pick? better yet, a pitcher from GA?

i will gladly take this bet

$5 internet dollars

I am thinking

they might actually take a college 3B?

That would be wise.

Yes. But with the Braves philosophy of pitch, then hit, i’m thinking it’ll be another pitcher.

no

we need HITTERZ and SLUGGERZ

at n t call to the bull pen

venters?……lefty lefty match-up equals hit…..they are leaving him in?

Venters

I always thought it was funny when an opposing team blog had comments during Venters first appearance that his name sounded like he should own chain of chicken shacks. As in Jonny Venters Fresh Fried Chicken. Maybe you can use that to find inspiration for a personalized Venters “K”

I’ll take that under advisement. :-)

The Braves love 1st round pitching pics
OHHHHH that was an awfully good pitch

WHERE THE FAK WAS THAT?

one would reason outside
fuck ump

that’s right there on the plate

What was wrong with that?
It was outside

but the Dodgers were getting it all night

Doesn't matter

Gets him on the hook next pitch.

Venters

is filthy

Can you tape the bottom of the bat? Chip are you seriousa? Weren't you in Chicago when Sosa used to use three rolls of tape on the end of the bat?
next thing he will ask

can you cork the bat, Sosa did it

venters

doing work

anyone following SI's jon heyman on twitter?

dude’s showing some love for the braves

anything good

link?

SI_JonHeyman
forgetting everything else, jason heyward is a great baserunner. great.

SI_JonHeyman
troy glaus for $2 mil might be the bargain of the winter. 35 rbis in last 33 games

just saw that

awful sweet of him. usually he’s giving the Mets and Phillies BJs while making up trade rumors.

http://twitter.com/si_jonheyman

he dissed yunel the other day though

It’s not like he doesn’t deserve it.

yea, but at the time, he was right

now? not so.

you mean somebody actually can get a K against Ethier?
Please make Manny look more foolish then he is
not possible. he is wearing pajamas with the pockets flaired out
Have you ever heard the story about him in Cleveland

It was during the OJ Simpson Bronco chase and someone told him that “OJ’s on TV”. He asked why his teammate, Chad Ogea was on TV. What a moron.

Let's not mess around and let the Dodgers stay in this
POLL TIME

furcal or yunel?

right now?

Right now, Furcal, at their best, Furcal, for the future, Escobar.

same

except I would take Esco right now since Furcal is always hurt

not hurt

I would take Furcal, since we need a lead-off guy

We have a lead-off guy

his name is Prado

Prado is great

but he would be even more valuable as a number 2

think about all of his hits with a speed guy like Furcal on base

his OBP is like 340. speed is not really that important for leadoff guys.
And btw…. the 2 hole is where Heyward should and will be batting.

prado not doing it for you or something?

can’t steal i guess?

Prado handles the bat so well

he could flourish in the two hole

Furcal
Prado
Heyward

oh man

No.

Crawford
Prado
Heyward

:)

oh man

even better

this crowd is surprisingly uppity

for down five runs

it's california

everyone’s high.

California Dreamin'

That show was not nearly as good as Saved By the Bell.

I was thinking of the song. I didn’t know it was a show. lol

Hell of a song. Great stuff.

Dodgers have good fans

and a good line up

Venters is on fire

wish it were manny's hair

Venters is on Manny’s hair?

Nuclear Venter.

cute

I thought so. Tough crowd. lol

VENTERS!!
I am really impressed

Furcal
Kemp
Ethier
Manny

does not get much tougher than that

Which is better

this or Philly?

philly

but currently this

Current offensive production withstanding

I would take Philly

to be honest though

Prado
Chipper
Heyward
Glaus

isn’t far off.

Get McCann started

and Escobar keeps it up, that’s going to be tough to stop.

venters just blew through kemp, ethier, and manny

this guy’s a keeper

MARTHINEZ FOR THE 8TH PLZ
Johnny Venters sounds like the front man for some 50s cover band lol

Johnny Venters and the Rockets lol

Johnny Rivers

Secret Agent Man

My parents – had that 8track.
Played it to death, I still remember all those songs.

Venters: reliever or starter
Relief

him and Kimbrel could be ridiculous in a few years as a 8/9 combo

Seems a bit Smoltz-esque so probably would do well either.

I'm guessing we'll see Moylan for 8th

then Wagner for faux save.

why not pitch Wags 3 innings

then he will get a save

There aren’t 3 innings left?

Wagner is 9th inning only.

It’s in the Braves rule book.

because he's old and his arm would fall off
I actually agree with that

He’s been hit hard lately, he needs a confidence boost.

but on a short leesh
And we bring Kimbrel in for the ninth and pratice for next year.

The Dodgers are living on a prayer.

uh oh

Knuckleball guy

didn't we eff up wakefield last year?
I think you are right
if mclouth gets a hit here

how many games of reprieve will he get?

Am I the only one here who doesn't hate McLouth?
very possible
I don't think anybody really hates the guy

I think we’re just tired of a black hole occupying his spot in the lineup.

i really don't like the attitude he projects

And the lack of defense.

i don't

but do get frustrated b him a lot

I don't hate any Braves players

just ones that i’m not too crazy about.

You

didn’t hate Frenchy?

not until he put on a Mess jersey.

Hate none. Get frustrated, sure.

what about that terrible string of closers....
chuck james wtf

yeah, he sure closed a bunch of games for us.

You’re right…i hated Reitsma and Kolb…oh and Wickman too.

was he a middle relief guy?

i can’t remember

holy crap he was a started...

whatever he was terrible that’s all i remember
i think i mostly didn’t like him having two first names

James? He started. Went like 13-3 his rookie season and then kinda fell apart.

I hate Dan Kolb more than any player ever. I drive by the Winn Dixie and laugh at him from time to time.

there we go i've tried to block him out of my mind
I still like him

Over failcouer and mr. anderson and the majority of outfields in recent memory

Who wants to be McLouth gets blown away by a 70mph knuckleball?

just dont swing

winner!

Impossible

he was wearing his magnetic necklace.

If I was an umpire I would thump russell martin in the back of the head every time he turned around and looked at me after holding the frame a couple of extra seconds
Melky

high let it fly

wow lol

A walk for McLouth is like a hit for anyone else lol

McLouth reaches twice...

-C

Nate McLouth reaches base twice?

Yeah, seems like we’ll win a lot of those games.

Melky

should be use to the knuckleball

he faced Wakefield enough

Melky should be buying Nate's dinner every night..

Because nobody is noticing how much he stinks

Man...that 73mph ball was filthy Melky

no clue how you didn’t hit it.

damn melks

didn’t you have to face wakfield like, 3 times a year?

Is a Canuckler a Canadian Knuckle ball pitcher?

wow 7th run 7th NICE
The sacrifice didn't really set up the big inning...

I mean, there was a walk, a double, and homer following that.

Not to mention the single. If anything, the sacrifice might have cost us a run, as good as Prado has been.

What? Of course it did. It put two guys in scoring position. A DP would have definitely not scored any runs.

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not.

I’m being serious. I didn’t like the fact he bunted when it happened but in hindsight it worked out beautifully.

Well, it worked in the sense that he didn’t hit into a double play, and one out is better than two, but there’s a lot of ways he could have achieved that. And he had better than a 1 in 3 chance of reaching base safely in his own right and loading the bases or driving in runs himself.

That was a stupid sacrifice, even in hindsight.

Our bats were sick all night up until that point. Bobby was playing it safe.

And we followed it up with 5 straight men reaching

including a home run. It took Yunel grounding into a double play to end the inning, and we basically gave them one out.

wow

Prado was waaay out in front, but slowed his bat enough to make contact

a knuckle ball reliever?

yikes.

that will throw a batter off

Could you imagine facing this guy after facing a Schilling, Smoltz or Johnson?
sheesh

that would be crazy.

with all our power arms coming up we should grab one

crap

Martin hurt

Marteeen is hurt?

Oh fuck.

if he’s hurt, we can kiss the next few weeks goodbye.

D-train

got a win today with his first start on the D’backs

whatchu talkin about

willis?

Prado hurt

OH NOES

What happened?

gondee is posting minor league recaps but he’s too high and mighty to come into the OGT? FOR SHAME!

Gondeee in the thread = bad experience.

and it’s CB doing the recap, BTW

D’oh. I saw it come across twitter.

WHAT HAPPEND TO PRADO??

METEORS!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!

earthquake too!

LMAO

what was that

Sweet Dodgers Defense.... :-p

I bet

you have a ton of anti-Dodger images

I’m building a bit of a stockpile, yes.

i don't get it.. FLAIL?

You really hate them huh? My uncle is a Dodgers fan and he hates Giants fans.

Since 1885, baby.

That’s the way it’s supposed to work.

You’re kinda old.

I mean for the teams, you knucklehead. You kids these days and your literalism.

hahah i know i know. most underrated rivalry in pro sports: Dodgers vs. Giants

Lol, hilarious.
I have the sleepy giggles

every comment I read is making me lol
Hubby trying to sleep is shaking his head :)

Hahahaha

Manny is in right now

lmfao

that was just funny

What happened to Prado???

I cant handle the suspense

left hand

probably a strain or cramp?

Day off porbably wouldn't hurt him or J-Hey
Meteors

apparently

took

a funny swing at a knuckleball, looked like he hurt his wrist…

it showed he already had it taped up, might be just sore…

Stayed in the game, and looked ok

got jammed and hurt his wrist

it was already taped up, so I’m guessing this is an aggravation of an existing booboo…..

Really don't need to get Prado on the DL

Who would be the call up in that case? Hicks, then we shift Infante to second?

Manny says...

see, it’s not so easy is it.

C'mon Infante....take the walk....
Infante - Bases now loaded for Heyward

Grannie time.

Golden Girls Pictures, Images and Photos

Thank you for being a friend.

Blanche was a gilf

RIP Rue McClanahan

awesome.

RIP Estelle, Bea, and Rue

heyward

ANYTHING BUT A TRIPLE PLAY PLZ

that would be hard with an out
J-Hey's

First Gannie YayZ

Just hit this shit 400 miles Jason

I’ll get my glove ready.

biiiiiggggg swing
I doubt

Prado will go to the DL. Most likely just sit for a day or two.

was it that serious?

i hope not

i mean he's still in the game
im just

responding to all the comments about how we cant have him go on the DL. etc

man

I thought Heyward was going to kill that one

Heyward fail :(
I wonder if he's ever seen that pitch before

I bet a lot of guys haven’t.

swinging for the fences, big guy?

Everyone looks like that against a knuckler.

Heyward Ks

cant really blame him

ugh

bet he didnt see many of those in the minors

Heyward is sooo streaky

like KJ lol

DO NOT

compare heyward and KJ

BABIP! UNLUCKY! WAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!

KJ wears Jason Heyward pajamas

Heyward

is begin crucified by Dodger pitching.

that could be why he ran over Martin lol

WOOOOO!!!!! McCann!!

If there had to be a Heyward slump...

then it is best for it to come when the team overall is playing well

Walk in

that run plz

You think so small….

wahoooooo heaaapppp!!!!!

Mac

turning it around

BMac

not really

more of a LD

i know

but wanted Mac to get a taste so he comes back for more

This is how most of Atlanta’s hot dog carts stay in business.

mccann

about time!

2 More for Heap!

PENI....er

I mean BOB SAGET

9-2 Woot Woot!

Glasses = Brian McKent
No Glasses = Super McCann

I’m on board with this theory.

We said the exact opposite last year. The man just needs to get his eyes fixed somehow.

I’ll call Tony Stark, tell him to get right on it.

Ethier just robbed Glaus....

It took a circus catch to end that inning.

Ethier robs the Glausosaurus
Blasphemy!
*Glausosaur

Stop butchering it!

Glaus

ripped one, but close to Ethier

I can smell it from here.

Dang Troy

almost had another hit

glaus ROBBED
I need to complain about Mac more often

Seems like he’s doing well today.

MARTHINEZ PLZ MARTHINEZ
Wow...what a catch

Ethier is incredible. Can you imagine future NL All Star Game OFs of Braun, Ethier and Heyward? That’s just not fair.

That’s gonna be a great Yankees outfield

The "</Frenchy " part disappeared.

it takes a web gem these days to get Troy out

Dodgers bullpen says...

-C

haha

+1 million

Is this funny or just racist?

Who cares?

Lots of people, i’m sure.

Have you seen the video? It’s sorta both.

Have not seen the video

So I might just be judging unfairly. I just see a photo of an injured black person and a caption that’s a joke about ebonics, and it seems offensive, even if i’m slightly amused.

He deserved it. Search “I AM A MOTHERFUCKER” or “AMBER LAMPS” on youtube.

RICKIE WEEKS!

I know I’m bad.

Did you see his homer against the Giants today??

-C

Lets hope

this is the end of McCann’s stuggles

Double-Yew-Tee-Eff

Moylan?

moylan....been off recently
Understatement )
Mother of all fuckers

Moylan again?

Bobby Cox to the bullpen

Bobby: What is Moylan doing
Eddie: Sitting here figuring he wont come in up 7
Bobby: Thats crazy talk his arm is still attached right?
Eddie: I guess so?
Bobby: get him up ASAP

PETER MOYLAN LET'S FUCKING DO THIS MAN GET YOU BACK ON TRACK SON LET'S DO THIS!!!!
Moylan coming in
Good time to get some confidence back
wow i'm way more excited about moylan than everybody else
moylan

good spot to get his confidence back

No.

This would’ve been a good spot to REST Moylan. This would’ve been a good spot to bring Martinez in….

i agree with you

but i can’t fault bobby for putting him in here. i can understand, even if i would prefer martinez

When was the last time Moylan pitched two nights ago?

He’s rested

come on moylan

throw him “dave”

ugh

was supposed to be a strike

Moylan in. Drink.

pwned

There you go

They say nobody in Australia drinks Foster’s and it’s all a marketing campaign.

i mean it is pretty damn terrible overpriced beer
What do they drink

then?

tooheys, reschs... carlton draught.. victoria bitter

Hell I don’t know. Wikipedia backs me up.

Despite its heavy international presence, the so-called original Australian beer, Foster’s Lager, has very low appeal and limited availability throughout Australia,2 and is made mostly for export, or made under licence in other countries, particularly the U.K.
Well then there you go

i will note i listed carlton above :D

Credit

given and deserved

know thy beer

i swear it’s a commandment

Live in Utah

and attend BYU (a Mormon college, though not Mormon myself) and am underage, or something. I’ll get there.

Infante needs to work on throwing to first....

He nearly pulled Glaus off the bag.

Wow, Philly has a tough schedule this month

All the better
yea we need to take advantage of that

not that ours is that easy but after this 11 game road trip we have 15 of 18 at home

Let me play the world’s smallest violin for them.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5tlnAXts-4

mlb.tv, do I look like a bitch?

THEN WHY YOU TRYING TO TO FUCK ME LIKEA BITCH?

if i think you look like a bitch

can i fuck you like a bitch?

You have the Rainbow Llamasaurus…..sic him on mlb.tv

Quick

somebody get this guy a Royale with cheese

1 out

keep it up Moylan

why doesnt that

christian guy ever get work

Because he’s not good at baseball.

Because he's a hypercrite )
ugh

1st pitch was a strike

I strongly dislike all things about Russell Martin

TheLetter, I believe we’ve found you a pen pal

Prado.... come on no not this
english do you speak it
A face only a mother could love

vin scully

talking about moylan’s weight loss techniques

Lisp Martinez has a sweet job

Chill with Braves players, pick up a prorated league minimum check, and never really have to do any actual work just show up.

eat the nice spread of food too

And have people grab your luggage for you. And he doesn’t have to wear those gay batting helmets.

/folds arms, taps foot

vin scully

knows about DAVE?

VIN SCULLY KNOWS EVERY THING

He’s one of the greatest broadcasters ever. He knows everything.

I kinda wish Dusty Baker or Bobby Cox managed the Dodgers tonight......fuck up their bullpen for tomorrow's day game.
haha

anyone see Heyward throw the ball to the kid with a Heyward shirt

to whoever said it earlier

holy shit, jamey carroll looks like matt diaz’s evil twin

Good inning for Moylan

They’re talking about Peter getting to practice using Dave since less pressure here.
Good thing.

OT: I get better at whistling the later it gets.

Always a good idea to keep those muscles in shape.

Good outing for Moylan....
Moylan

with the K, inning over

Peter gets 2!

Great inning by Moylan
Moylan is deffinintely on Bobby's fanasty team
Tommy Hanson deserves huge props

his great pitching kept us in the game when it was 2-0, he bought our bats time and they woke up in a big way

And he didn't have his A or B game tongiht
Assuming we hold on...

He gets the win, doesn’t he??

-C

I love Tatties and Beer. Go Peter.

I read that wrong.

As did I, lol

I think I read it right.

Greg White

sighting

BLAAAANCO!!!!
Blanco

with a base hit

Blanco with a hit.....lol
Blanco

better the Nate

Blanco batting .1000
only .100?
Damned decimal points
vin scully

just said “fisted”

I might switch over to him for the last inning.

Please

don’t let Chip get to him

Greg White with a HIT

Blanco

for full time CF

Yay

Greg Shiro is still at 1.000

got my tickets for the strasburg game...

gonna be baller

I'll trade you

a JoJo Reyes rookie card for them

live in the area?

still 30 bucks on stubhub
of course that’s six times what you have to pay for a normal nats game

vin scully

knows about gregor blanco’s softball-playing girlfriend when they were 14.

WHAT DOESNT VIN SCULLY KNOW

Vin Scully

knows all

i wonder what vin scully knows

about you and me, kp.atl

he is old as the wind

so he hears lot of things

Gregor sez im defintely better than McLouth
Yunel...

average up to 247.. obp up to 333

If I was an umpire I would call EVERY borderline pitch a strike when the batter startks walking out before I’ve made the call on a full count.

Nate

still the same

the 11th right?

won’t make that one have a hot date with my female proctologist………don’t ask don’t yell!

so she already

seen the goods then

our first date....

She went for a home run but I called a balk on her and rescheduled so I could be more happy about her big damn knuckles…ha haa uhhhhh…..
OBTW…S’berg 1st start is the 8th I read….

Kimbrel

in the ninth

I approve

First time

I’ll see him pitch.

he is usually

all over the place

Here comes a preview
yunel

has 18 hits in our last 11 games…

So Kimbrel

OVER/UNDER: 2 BBs

OVER/UNDER: 2 Ks

You’re doing it wrong.

How so
usually do .5 so over/under actually makes sense
I am learning

so much new stuff

Over/under functions such that if you give a whole number….everyone loses when it’s a push!

You can’t give whole numbers on an over/under. If he walks and Ks 2 nobody wins and the bet is moot.

1 BB

2 Ks

Calling it…

I hate these MLB.tv commercials

+100000

WE ARE CHILDREN OF STEEL THIS IS OUR ANTHEM
SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU IDIOTS

omg

you get that commercial too? i thought it was just me…

Blanco's AB was deff more productive than Melky+Nate's AB
i hope craig's not jetlagged...
just smoked some pot

levels him out

Kimbrel’s velocity is down.

Gamecast

has him at 94mph

huh?

isnt he always in the 93-94 range?

Someone tell bobby that we have a guy name Christian whatever in the bullpen.

seriously did he forget about him? what about Chavez?

Chavez pitched last night….and decently.

That’s a lie and you know it!

Hell no Chavez will blow this lead in 1 pitch
Not a good start
not panicking..... not panicking.....
FUGA SIGHTING
FUGA up

come on Kimbrel K him for us

not specific enough!!!!!!!
Old man Garrett
Is he a professional hitter?

I haven’t been reminded by Chip yet.

Hey it's the poor man's manny

I heard Garrett Anderson was up…

FUGA is going to hit a professional 8-run walk-off.
83MPH

that’s the slider, right?

looks kinda like a changeup
hold it together......
damn

K and wild pitch

i would've ruled it a passed ball...

Heap didn’t put the tailgate down, it went between his legs.

Only a professional gets on base after a strikeout

Heyward did that yesterday.

SIT THE FUCK DOWN!!!!!
since when

did Kimbrel throw a change up?

I don't

remember him running at all last year

Professionally guides to first in his flip flops

let's not let the dodgers get any momentum started for a comeback in the 9th...

chip…

How the hell

does that happen lol

Strikeout....follow it up with a vidro....

C’mon CK….

WTF Ump???

It’s a 7 run lead in the 9th, widen the strike zone.

huh

where was that?

easily a strike

just a little high
the pitch, i mean
the baseball pitch by craig kimbrel, i mean
gamecast

has it clearly as a strike

Wow this umpire sucks azz
Clearly

was a trike

It’s been years since I’ve ridden one of those.

escobar wtf wtf is going on

kimbrel has been fine wtf is this

Eff You Furcal
Sigh....they're trying to make this a save situation for Wags.....
ok lets just do this right

get wagner out here and lets be done with it

Kimbrel

not pitching poorly, just one legit hit

wow... kimbrel with 0 defense.... this run shouldn't be earned
waaait

what did escobar do? gameday says a SOFT ground ball to escobar

high chopper

double play depth and slow grounder made it impossible to make a play

weird hop, kinda got him twisted around so he couldn't throw the ball until too late -- pocketed. Looked like the right play -- rather have that than throw it away
Give the Dodger's fans credit

the ywon’t quit

I gave them credit

and then got foreclosed upon. Not funny? I didn’t think so either.

Smoltzie is that you?

The ones that stayed, anyway. Typically, the stadium begins to clear out in the eighth.

Quickly

Figure out how we can blame a strikeout/passed ball and an infield hit on Bobby Cox’s bullpen management!

Do it before someone else does!
Cox

sucks!!! Fire him now!!! lol

Strikes pleaz
Interesting....

6 run lead. Can’t be blown, right?

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH
You tell'em, Oracle!
haha

haven’t been called that in a while, EG

Didn’t you call one of those hits earlier?

yea

predicting glaus homers has been too easy of late

It's funny

because I also happen to be from that part of the world

damn it just put

Wags in

OUTS OUTS OUTS OUTS OUTS
That was a strike

all day long though for the dodgers

Goddamn it.

You have a 6 run fucking lead. Throw strikes.

LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES! LET’S GO PADRES!

HR and we got that save situation

SOMEBODY HAZE THIS FUCKIN GUY.

had four in an inning yesterday (I think)…

KKKKimmBBBBBBBBrel
4 strikeout inning!
Better.

Maybe I should swear more.

MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP

anyone know

why kimbrel has yet to throw his slider? last i checked he was primarily a fastball/slider guy tonight he has been fastball/changeup

His slider looks a lot like a changeup
Gameday

is showing FB/CH he threw a slider to Ethier

MVP looks so slow and chunky catching fly balls
I think

you might be on to something

Either Ethier will eat there, or we’ll use the ether

Has there ever been a 5 strikeout inning?

quick google search yielded no matches

not in the majors

minors, yes

happened once

in an exhibition game, and three times in a minor league game, but never in the majors

IDK

someone struck out 4 the other night…..cant remember who

Felix Hernandez.

Manny for out 3

wow what a pitch
1:45 a.m. EDT. Mark it down.
