That has to be taken into account, especially when the game actually is different home vs. away, rather than it just being a psychological difference. Only the Braves have a better home record in MLB
And we look like shit. But 2 runs is nothing in this park and if we can get De La Rosa out of the game it’ll be a whole new story. I’m frustrated too, but people like you are talking like we’re getting blown out.
Our road record would be a bit better if we could learn how to get a lead and keep it and/or score early in games.
We seem to play from behind more than not.
We hardly ever make the SP work hard and ours are always under pressure to make no mistakes.
After this game, assuming we lose, the Braves are 27 above .500 at home and 7 below. 500 on the Road. Rockies would be 20 above .500 at home and 15 below on the road.
I'll say this again, like I've said a thousand times...
There’s no way Lowe isn’t in the playoff rotation…
I don’t necessarily approve of it, but everybody is going to have a much easier time if you start accepting that he’s going to be there now instead of later.
My one hope for the Astros/Phillies game is that, even if the Phillies have to win, hopefully the game lasts 20 innings and their bullpen gets depleted for the next week.
but this offense is fuckin baddd as of right now, i mean JORGE DE LA ROSA!!!! not Wainwright or CC or Josh Johnson, but De La Roas shit all over us! Philly will likely win as we will likely lose(pending another incredible comeback)
I know how it is here, the people who get aggravatedthat the team doesn’t score and they come and say it and all the people who see nothing wrong make fun of them… I know how everything is here, but I just wanna say this offense is BAD and DLEE hasn’t done shit!
Lets go gettem tommorow and hopefully keep Philly at 2.5 games back!
Because I mis-spelled Derrek…a f-ed up way to spell it to begin with? I have better things to do that to work about my blogging comments getting graded for spelling.
I am watching Baseball Tonight and John Kruk is just being the biggest apologist and homer for Ryan Howard. Holy shit, I can’t believe I use to like him…
Cause I’m sure the hotel is going to let random people come in and walk to the rooms, then the umps are going to open their room and let them in so they can do…….whatever exactly it is he is thinking they are going to do to them….classic Philadelphian
Roy Halladay pitching next. Plus, it’s a four-game series. Still, I hope the Astros win this series and the Braves end this road trip having gained some ground, even if it’s only one game.
k who was on wikipedia tonight
To date, no Major League Baseball player has ever struck out more than five times in a nine-inning game. However, striking out 5 times has been done. This feat has been achieved 58 times, most recently by Ryan Howard of the Philadelphia Phillies on August 24, 2010 versus the Houston Astros in an extra innings game. Howard was ejected by third base umpire Scott Barry for arguing the call made on his final strike out. This led to a pitcher, Roy Oswalt, having to come on and play in left field.

Uhm
That kind of surprises me too. Pujols isn’t the kind of guy you think to steal bases or lead his team in steals.
sag969 - August 24, 2010
One of three players to lead his team in HR and SB
One of the other ones is currently trotting in from left field
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
Or rather, he is standing in LF
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
c´mon patience
this guy is wild
joshant - August 24, 2010
The Astros pitcher
His ERA went from 9.00 to 7.71 just by striking out Utley. I take it he hasn’t pitched much.
Bronn - August 24, 2010
Remember when Moylan’s ERA was like 163.00?
Scott Coleman - August 24, 2010
Too bad his name won’t change to “A Mediocre” or “A Decent” for the performance.
Ivan the Great - August 24, 2010
striking out the great Chase Utley is worth more than the average out
bpk228480 - August 24, 2010

Whatever you say

Yes.
And we look like shit. But 2 runs is nothing in this park and if we can get De La Rosa out of the game it’ll be a whole new story. I’m frustrated too, but people like you are talking like we’re getting blown out.
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
It's theoretically possible that we could get swept.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
It wouldn’t be the first time. Don’t act surprised.
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
So Lowe gets out of a bases loaded jam last inning then the first batter the next inning gives up a HR. Beautiful.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
That ball just landed in my f’ing living room.
Scott Coleman - August 24, 2010
granted we're at coor's

BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
and you just said they’re not a good team. So yeah…
Scott Coleman - August 24, 2010
I was thinking the same thing
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
except our road is not that bad
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
our home record is better than theirs and our road record is slightly better.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
Our road record would be a bit better if we could learn how to get a lead and keep it and/or score early in games.
We seem to play from behind more than not.

Well chip just tried to inject some knowledge...
But then they agreed the braves are nothing like the rockies
s.r.j - August 24, 2010
They have a point
Rockies: 25-40
Braves: 29-35
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
After this game, assuming we lose, the Braves are 27 above .500 at home and 7 below. 500 on the Road. Rockies would be 20 above .500 at home and 15 below on the road.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
And Braves will have won 15 more games at home than on the road, and the Rockies will have won 15 more games at home than on the road.

i doubt we see minor pitching… he’s a rookie…
Braves Biceps - August 24, 2010
I'll say this again, like I've said a thousand times...
There’s no way Lowe isn’t in the playoff rotation…
I don’t necessarily approve of it, but everybody is going to have a much easier time if you start accepting that he’s going to be there now instead of later.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Yeah as long as Huddy shaves that beard
SuperHeyward - August 24, 2010
My guess for Bobby
Huddy, Lowe, JJ, Tommy
If it was me
Huddy, Tommy, JJ, Lowe
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
my preference....
Game 1 Hudson, Game 2 JJ, Game 3 (If we are 1-1 or 2-0) Hanson (if 0-2) Hudson, Game 4 Tommy or Hudson.

NCChopper - August 24, 2010
If you chase JDLR, I guarantee you that you'll get Matt Belisle
I say this with complete seriousness. You don’t want to face Matt Belisle. According to Fangraphs, he is the most valuable relief pitcher in MLB

Scott Coleman - August 24, 2010

UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
why our players are swinging all those balls in dirt?
joshant - August 24, 2010
i think
is because the hate those gray uniforms….
Hektor DiPaula - August 24, 2010
Alright ump....that's not a fucking strike.

It can’t happen the whole series

oVecKid - August 24, 2010
When is Lee going to not suck?
Bob Mackie - August 24, 2010
Well, our SPs shouldn’t see 3 runs as Mt. Rushmore of offense.
Our offense has failed IMO more than Lowe tonight.
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
sheesh
what is going on with Lee?
lingsched - August 24, 2010
Are we just tired?
that’s what it looks like

Hey, pessimist

Tim Goad - August 24, 2010
Hey now. He’s got a point.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
Astros Lee cant win anything for us. Hence the "Astros"
Tim Goad - August 24, 2010
He can beat the Phillies.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
Ok?
Thats a win for the Astros.
Tim Goad - August 24, 2010
Sigh.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
He is hurt?
huzzah?
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010

MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
take him out Tracy!!!
leedawg - August 24, 2010
Not to wish for an injury....
But I hope he’s hurt.
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
I hope he’s just barely hurt, not enough to get pulled but enough to start hanging some breaking balls.
StapleGun - August 24, 2010

he can make contact.

MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOONZO
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
My one hope for the Astros/Phillies game is that, even if the Phillies have to win, hopefully the game lasts 20 innings and their bullpen gets depleted for the next week.
Ivan the Great - August 24, 2010
Good point
Getting their bullpen some extra work can’t hurt for the stretch run
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
c´mon Melky, just hit a flyball
joshant - August 24, 2010
yea, with two outs.
Tim Goad - August 24, 2010
Flyball at coors field = 75% HR
joshant - August 24, 2010
Get smart
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
Well
we need 100% HR for it to count.
Tim Goad - August 24, 2010
FUCK melky
joshant - August 24, 2010
dammit
more chop Melky
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
wow melky
gone cold
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
And the patented Melky Choppah...
/sigh
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
Braves are 100% w/ RISP tonight!
maybe the first time all year
nuftjedi - August 24, 2010
now we just need 2 more RISP and a lock down bullpen
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Melky and his "choppah's" really piss me off..
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
why the fuck
does he always swing at the first pitch
s.r.j - August 24, 2010
I think you mean second
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
that was the 2nd pitch
leedawg - August 24, 2010
and he took the 1st pitch for a ball
leedawg - August 24, 2010
He didnt.
Tim Goad - August 24, 2010
oh shit
good point. I’m the dumb one – not melky. missed the first pitch watching phillies gameday.
s.r.j - August 24, 2010
Question...
what is Melky’s contract?
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
So gone after this year?
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
well...
they could resign him..
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
They could...
or they could give Matt Young a shot?
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
Toilet paper
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
$3.1mil, but $500k paid by the Yankees
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
3.1 million
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
Wonder what the ground ball outs (vs) fly ball outs ratio is for us tonight?
I know we’ve had 3 DPs.
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
12 GB, 1 FB according to mlb.com
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
Thank You.
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
No thank you.
That’s sooooo bad for Coors. Yikes
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
?????
Kobe:The Legend - August 24, 2010
I mean… if you’re at Coors at least try to put the ball in the air and if you hit one maybe it’ll carry… instead of smacking it into the ground.
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
ohh, I thought they were talking about Lowe
my bad.
Kobe:The Legend - August 24, 2010
Oh it’s horrendous.
I was expressing the appreciate for the effort of posting the info.
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
Mmhmm i understand that! Hahaha
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
de la Rosa has been getting 58% ground balls, more even than Derek Lowe
So it’s partially due to the pitcher
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
I like cutting it down to 1.
Still got some work to do, boys.

Nice, a lot of my family went to ECU, cept for me
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
You guys stole
Alfy Hill… somehow he does not qualify at Alabama, but he does at ECU..

nobody’s ever repeated a season like that, and the titans have said they wont be giving him over 400 touches again
BravesRaleigh - August 24, 2010

why does melky take bad routes?

Cue the circus music Melky...
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
Was it hit that hard
or is Melky just slow to react
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
hit hard.. but Melky still read it wrong

Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
Um...Buehrle?
De la Rosa is also very good when healthy
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
Buehrle is really not that good....
Seriously, looks at his numbers, he is very inconsistent, I’d compare him very closely to Lowe
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
Buerle had a perfect game...

he needs a lot of rest to be at his best, but that seems to not rly be the case anymore
BravesRaleigh - August 24, 2010
So much BS

altitude is making the umps stupid

I thought that was the 3rd out :(

NCChopper - August 24, 2010
Even if Philly wins, it’s nice to get their bullpen some extra work.
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
I'm embarrased about this but I trust you guys so I'm just going to come out and say it...
I had no idea Jason Giambi was a Rockie
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Haha me too.
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
he has been with them
since last year
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
He also started for almost a full month this season with Helton on the DL
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
me either
I was looking at the screen trying to figure out who it was when the Rockies announcers said “Here comes the big guy”
drumzalicious - August 24, 2010
Does anyone know who is pitching on sunday?? That will be my first ever Braves game.
BRaves1 - August 24, 2010
Lowe I believe
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
yep
leedawg - August 24, 2010
Thanks
BRaves1 - August 24, 2010
Nope
It’s Hudson vs Josh Johnson
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
That's a winner of a first game.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
+1
To that.
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
Pretty sure
they just said Lowe on Sunday… Minor will be skipped
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
pretty sure that's not right
I read somewhere that they’re skipping Minor, Hanson is going friday, Huddy saturday, and Lowe sunday
leedawg - August 24, 2010
Im going to my second one against the Cardinals :)
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Careful here Saito….
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
WOW…..
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
thats fantastic
BravesRaleigh - August 24, 2010
wow
lingsched - August 24, 2010
you have got to be kidding me
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
WTF
leedawg - August 24, 2010
Wow...
that hurts
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
seriously
drumzalicious - August 24, 2010
What else could go wrong?
SuperHeyward - August 24, 2010
Don’t say that. Grand slam?
Ivan the Great - August 24, 2010
3 (But he's now on 1st base)
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
pretty sure
that is going to cost us a run
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
Holy shit
Bob Mackie - August 24, 2010
Defense Fail
joshant - August 24, 2010
pitching fail.
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Strike... out...?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Saito was setup to throw outside corner...
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
did brian not see it?
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
he was calling for outside and low..
Saito went hight and inside.. That was Saito’s bad there..
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
Gameday says strike three and every body is freaking out...
This can only mean one thing, and it’s going to make me angry..
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
ho...
LY SHIT
nuftjedi - August 24, 2010
...so what happened
SouthernPanther - August 24, 2010
pass ball
lingsched - August 24, 2010
Gameday still wants to claim the inning is over since there was a strike out... but I'm just assuming that isn't the case...
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Just when you don't think it can get any harder to hang on....
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
wow
he is not giving that call is he?
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
Now the zone shrinks….
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
And another pitch = 2 runs.
Like always.
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
horrible
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
fuckshit
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
and there it is...
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
Catching fail
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
OF COURSE
lingsched - August 24, 2010
there
is the ball game
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
game over
joshant - August 24, 2010
i think gameday just shit its pants
SouthernPanther - August 24, 2010
what...hapened?
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
crappy defense
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
Can i not get specifics?
ATLforlife - August 24, 2010
Strike out…passed ball for Mac reaches 1st
Bases Loaded single by Dexter Fowler 2RBIs
5-2 Rockies
3 more outs
Today is Tuesday
SuperHeyward - August 24, 2010
shoulda had someone else warming up and come in
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
I mean
he only struck out the side
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
+1
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
this
ByrneSupremacy - August 24, 2010
3 men on, hasn't played in a while... at least have someone warming up
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
Just like Betancourt yesterda
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
Not gonna lie if I wasnt at work I'd turn this off right now
SuperHeyward - August 24, 2010
and Phillies gonna win it in bott 13th?
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
game
nuftjedi - August 24, 2010
OF COURSE
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
The 2010 Atlanta Braves...
Finding new and more painful ways to break GameDay with every game.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
that's on Mac right there
leedawg - August 24, 2010
I can't wait for the Braves to get out of this place
deewill23 - August 24, 2010
Screw this
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
wow. Rockies score w/ 3 strikeout
joshant - August 24, 2010
why don't you bring in wags to pitch to fowler, and now cargo?
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
we are losing
?
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
well
we WERE down by 1
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
yeah but you dont bring your closer
in the 8th when you are losing on the road
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
why not?
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
Because when you get the lead
who pitches the bottom of the ninth etc
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
the closer again, or the setup man.
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
Well
Venters makes sense..
Not sure we ask Wags to go two innings at his age
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
Who pitches tomorrow ?
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
jurrjens
I believe
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Yup
vs Esmil Rodgers
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
..we've come back from more than 3 down...just saying
SouthernPanther - August 24, 2010
This is horrible

"I'm sorry Takashi... Striking out the side... not quite good enough."
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
So I literally just said this to my two buddies right now
“I bet you anything they score again here and the philllies win it in 13th”
We’re half way home…
Scott Coleman - August 24, 2010
Well if the Phillies win we’ll come back and win too.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
you cant turn it off
can you
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
It’s on at the place we’re eating…so i guess not
Scott Coleman - August 24, 2010
Ok if we don't come back in the 9th then this is just horrible. Another .500 or below road trip.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
Chances philly wins it Btm of the 13th?
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
RALLY CHOP
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
IM SO DOWN WITH THIS
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
I say this again
If somehow the Phillies lose… it is sucks, but is okay
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
I really think we're going to have to get home field throughout the playoffs in order to go all the way.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
Hey its that guy that raped us last night
SuperHeyward - August 24, 2010
Heyward
WTP
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
1 pitch…. really?
NCChopper - August 24, 2010
Is there a way this team hasn’t figured out how to fuck up these past few weeks?
sleezer1788 - August 24, 2010 via mobile
hey!
let’s rally, shall we.
MBL1 - August 24, 2010 via mobile
I hate to say this...
but this offense is fuckin baddd as of right now, i mean JORGE DE LA ROSA!!!! not Wainwright or CC or Josh Johnson, but De La Roas shit all over us! Philly will likely win as we will likely lose(pending another incredible comeback)
I know how it is here, the people who get aggravatedthat the team doesn’t score and they come and say it and all the people who see nothing wrong make fun of them… I know how everything is here, but I just wanna say this offense is BAD and DLEE hasn’t done shit!
Lets go gettem tommorow and hopefully keep Philly at 2.5 games back!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
this offense can´t hit lefties
joshant - August 24, 2010
De la Rosa is criminally underrated
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
we seem to find
a lot of those pitchers
Texastriplecrown - August 24, 2010
he really isn't anything all that special
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Check his peripherals last year
He was top 30 in MLB in WAR last year. 4th highest K rate among all MLB lefties and set the Rockies franchise record for K rate two straight years
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
he's not bad
but when we do this to every damn lefty pitcher/pitcher on the road, you gotta say its something to do with the offense
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
We suck against bad pitchers…. end of…. Look what we did to the freak and strusburg
SuperHeyward - August 24, 2010
we can beat aces, but the guys we can’t beat aren’t aces.. Plus lefties = poison.
MBL1 - August 24, 2010 via mobile
Our offense is good occasionally. Every 20 games or so we'll haev a 10 run game, but every game in betweent that our offense sucks.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
exactly we score 16 one game against a solid pitcher
then against another solid pitcher we score 1 run
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Heyward with the WTP
joshant - August 24, 2010
Heyward is getting too inconsistent
reaching 9 straight times but now he may go 4-25 or something
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Honestly
It’s because Terry Pendleton is a HORRIBLE hitting coach
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
that has little to do with it IMO
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
seriously???
Then how come everytime someone comes to Atlanta they never hit near as well as they did before they got here???
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
no reply
haha
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010

Texastriplecrown - August 24, 2010
Well, if you think TP is good thats fine
But I don’t, agree to disagree

Lets get back to ATL now.

NOOOO NOT DINGER THE ANNOYING POLKA DOTTED PURPLE DINOSAUR

Prado
Ks ugly
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
So now it 's up to the guy who has struck out 8 times in his 18 bats with the Braves.
BravesFan2010 - August 24, 2010
What the fuck was he swinging at?
Bob Mackie - August 24, 2010
the rockies are annoying
but they aren’t making the playoffs IMO
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
Well if the Braves can't win on the road
neither will they (at least go far in the playoffs)
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
Oh boy...
Lee is our last chance.. As he watches one down the middle
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
and can’t catch up with another one down the middle
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
man another night
and another bs strikezone
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
Derrek Lee
bringing the Cubs curse…
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Lee
can not catch up to the fastball, game over
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
He really can’t hit a fastball to save his life.
kauf67 - August 24, 2010
how many runs we had scored for our SPs?
it´s seems like 0, 1 or 2
we won, scoring 16 and 13 runs, but almost all of those runs were scored when the bullpen was pitching.
joshant - August 24, 2010
I'm hitting my head to kill brain cells so I don't have to think about this...
Anybody with me?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
really...?
you’re cheering at a strike like that…? It’s one game, the Rockies are like 11 games back. Wow
MBL1 - August 24, 2010 via mobile
they won...chill its nice to win
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
I would be happy
to blow another team’s playoff chances
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
as would i
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
5 GB the wild card if the Phillies lose
That’s completely doable with the home heavy schedule the rest of the way
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
which isn't really happening atm
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
Anything can happen in an extra inning game
Especially considering the Phillies just put in their last bullpen arm
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
you do realize
that they are playing the astros? most AAA teams could beat them…
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
Anything can happen in an extra inning game
You don’t think Carlos Lee can go deep on a David Herndon? Houston wins games now and again too. There are four teams with worse records in the NL
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
he’s not in the game…plus, they did that when they still had oswalt…
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
I didn't see Lee had been pulled
And they are 11-10 in August without Oswalt. They have been better without him
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
a number of those being the mets and pirates...
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
6-8 against others
Mets still have a better record than Astros
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
that was from a first half performance
of them playing over their heads…they have been one of the worst teams in the second half
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
There's just no winning with you is there?
All I’m saying is the Astros have a legitimate chance to score one run in this game before the PHilliees do
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
i'm just trying to be difficult
haha
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
/vent frustrations by arguing
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
I hear ya
Onto the 15th
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
You realize...
A) This is baseball.
B) They won last night.
C) They’ve made it to the 14th tonight already.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
They just beat the team with the record best record in the NL
Feel important!
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Man, the Padres just can't buy love
They are 2.5games ahead
Andrew T. Fisher - August 24, 2010
hahaha oh man
I meant to type “second best record” and for some reason instead of second I typed record twice… FAIL
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010

road loss with a horrible offense
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
and defense
atlbraves1991 - August 24, 2010
very true
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
ugh
trying to decide who i want to blame for this Saito outing.
Saito, Bobby or the umpires
drumzalicious - August 24, 2010
mccann
Texastriplecrown - August 24, 2010
Mac called for low and outside..
Saito threw high and inside. Not completely Mac’s fault
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
Mac
and the ump
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
Weren’t we already behind a run before mac messed up?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
true
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
how was that Mac's fault
saito threw way up and in and mccan was set up far outside
drumzalicious - August 24, 2010
yea
but there were a good three pitches that should’ve been called strikes in the inning before that
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
well
thats why i said i dont know who to blame.
drumzalicious - August 24, 2010
o my apologies...
i misread…i thought u were asking how was it the ump’s fault
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
this offense is aniemec
spelling fail?
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
close enough
UltimaParadox - August 24, 2010
haha what is the spelling?
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
“anemic”
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
ahhhh
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
gotta cheer them on hardcore
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
GREAT PREDICTION OF THE SWEEP LOL!!!!
fizzbot - August 24, 2010
top 14th
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Going to the 14th inning
jjhova12 - August 24, 2010
TOP 14TH rang him up
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
I'd root for the Astros but that will probably just make them lose...
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Has Derrick Lee done anything since coming over?
He seems like a rally killer to me so far
Jaxon - August 24, 2010
Certainly hasn’t taught us how to spell his name
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Your so witty
Jaxon - August 24, 2010
GRAMMAR PATROL!
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
oh BURNED!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Oh really?
Because I mis-spelled Derrek…a f-ed up way to spell it to begin with? I have better things to do that to work about my blogging comments getting graded for spelling.
Jaxon - August 24, 2010
'worry' about
Jaxon - August 24, 2010
I think King was mostly being sarcastic...
And I was just prodding you with a little KNEE SLAPPER!
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
someone just doesn't understand
and the fact that I used “burned” should’ve made it even more obvious
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
I think its better described as being 'snarky'
Jaxon - August 24, 2010
is that word in the dictionary?
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Suprisingly yes
Jaxon - August 24, 2010
I like turtles.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR TURTLE OBSESSION!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
hahaha
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
You guys got some real winners over here

over... where?

oVecKid - August 24, 2010
the news lady...
how the fuck do i responde to that?
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
I can’t believe she didn’t burst out laughing. The kid was so out of it.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
that couldn't have made less sense
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
we finally bring in a big bat
and he blows…idk what to say about this team, one day we score 16 then it takes 7 games to score 16 runs combined…
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
give him time
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
I'm all for this...
But we may be starting to run out of time.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
like 2-20
with 9 k’s…great start, and give him time? we got little time we only have 35 or so games left and every game is extremely important
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Certainly no better than Glaus or Hinske
Jaxon - August 24, 2010
no worries
the phils will lose…i mean we just lost
atlbraves1991 - August 24, 2010
Of course. That’s the rule now.
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
As long as Heap, Lee etc heat up in time for the Playoffs
We will be fine
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
wow can't wait to go for the sweep!
fizzbot - August 24, 2010
lee freaking blows too btw
fizzbot - August 24, 2010
too early to say
but he sure isn’t getting a large Braves fanbase
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
since August 9 (Astros Series), our SPs only got 4 wins
1 for JJ
1 for Hudson
2 for Minor
the offense really sucks, during the first 6 innings
joshant - August 24, 2010
Wow I knew it was bad
but man, the Braves really need to hang a crooked number up in the first to give them a chance to just breeze or at least give the starters a breather
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
Full count!
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
JHEY...idk what to say
I mean 1 series he is unstoppable next series he can’t hit, hopeffully he can be more consistent for the future
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
huh?
he had a 3 hit night last night.
is he supposed to go 4-4 every night or something?
drumzalicious - August 24, 2010
0 for last 6 with 3-4 K's
obviously this could be the start of a cold streak
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Micheals
oozes fail
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
something to cheer one up..after this loss :(

steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Was I the only one that had a bad feeling about this series?
Not saying I feel this way just because of the first 2 games, but I just felt like getting the Rockies in Coors was a classic trap series…
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
not too worried
won’t face that field in the playoffs
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
ummmm
they are 5 gms back of wild Card pending tonights game phillies and stros
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
I meant every game
my apologies
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
i see
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
oh and we are so far from the playoffs why would you even say that?
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
It wasn't the potential playoff match-up or whatever
It was just a feeling that the Braves were going to have a tough time playing this team at home while the Phils get the Astros
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
Who they are struggling with
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
CHRIS JOHNSON
is clutch
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
Tommy Manzella is not
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
pity on Chris, only decent hitter they have besides pence
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
Stros using a reliever ever 2 innings, Phils every inning
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
Phils have no more relievers available.
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
is it bad that I feel like I’m watching the Braves when I watch hou tonight?
atlbraves1991 - August 24, 2010
BMAC also shit the bed
a fastball blown by the catcher? thats a first possibly…get em tommorow we got our 2nd ace going so we can win!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Seriously let's win a game and get out of here
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Phillies have used eight pitchers...
How many they got left?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
none
They only have starters left.
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
Maybe they put in Ryan Howard to pitch
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
0-6 4ks behind the plate...
Why not see if he can get it done on the mound?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Lowe (11-12)
Braves record vs. LHP 22-22 and vs. RHP 51-31. That is all.
romone_braves91 - August 24, 2010
22-22?
That’s SO MUCH better than I thought it was.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
wow 3 Inn for this guy
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
hopefully Houston can give us a huge favor
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
The day…
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
I kind of hope we run out of relievers vs another team that also runs out of relievers some day...
Just so we can be like BOOM RICK ANKIEL WHAT UP?!?!?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
that would be awesome
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
that'd be my love
he comes in throwing 95…awesome
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
It would be my favorite regular season moment of the year...
Probably behind JHey opening day and Raw Dawgs Slam…
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
doesn't Raw Dawg have 2 slams?
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
obviously the Reds one but i think he has 2
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Yeah he had another vs the Marlins...
But I think when i say THE SLAM we know which one I’m talking about.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
oh i know the Slam
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
I'd feel better starting Ankiel over Lowe
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
+10
He’s still the only pitcher on the staff with an ERA above 4 isn’t he?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Minor if you count him
and KK if you countt him
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Thought Minor was 4.00 even... could be wrong though.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
i thought his like around 4.30
could very well be wrong though
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
4.00 Even
I think I was thinking about Derek Lowe specifically when I saw that he finished with 4.00 his last game out.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Yeah
He sucks….I’m sure all the other owners were laughing their asses off when we gave that washed up POS that contract
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
Which is shocking because POS contract
Are not in this organizations nature.
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
Agreed
I really feel like it was a panic move….after missing out on Peavy and Burnett
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
The opposing teams players wifes dont.

oVecKid - August 24, 2010

MikeTrain - August 24, 2010

KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Magilla Gorilla bout to send one!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Wild Pitch = FACEPALM, MAJOR FACEPALM
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010
OH boy… Howard gonna get suspended.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
what'd he do?
didn’t see
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
Went after ump who threw him out.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
But why did he get tossed?
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
look down.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
SIT THE FUCK DOWN!!!

KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010

That should be a 5 game suspension
SuperHeyward - August 24, 2010

KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
What the hell is going on over there?
SuperNewb - August 24, 2010

oVecKid - August 24, 2010

bluelg - August 24, 2010
hahahaha
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
turn it on mlb network
howard just gorilla’ dall over third base ump…he’s out of the game and they have to use a pitcher to play a position
bluelg - August 24, 2010
Wow, that’ll be interesting.
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010
Pitcher will have to play first base or another position!
HEYJUDE - August 24, 2010
this is a really good game...byt he way everything an extra inning game needs
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
pitcher needs to play 1B!!!!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
0-7.....thats awesome
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
5 of them strikeouts…..Troy Glaus is jealous
KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
i kinda expect howard to strike out every time
forgotten_glory - August 24, 2010
Wear the platinum sombrero!!
TonyAlmeyda - August 24, 2010

Oswalt in left!!!
oVecKid - August 24, 2010

bluelg - August 24, 2010
I hope this game goes 20
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
funny thing is
oswalt is probably an upgrade, range-wise and throwing arm-wise
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
this game is nuts!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
please Astros hit ot LF
joshant - August 24, 2010
wouldnt that be funny if oswalt gets hurt in outfield
bluelg - August 24, 2010
or make an amazing play
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Makes a Buerhle meter 10 play.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010

oVecKid - August 24, 2010
OMG OSWALT CAUGHT A POP FLY=Phillies fans.
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
Gotta smile at that one.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
they aren't hitting for the pitcher?
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
no bench, i presume
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
Dont have a bench player.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
Wandy!!!!!!!!!
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
ESPN just described strikeout. They referred to him as ‘our man Howard,’ just confirming how they feel about the Phillies
ryantex - August 24, 2010
AStros flyout to LF. LOL
joshant - August 24, 2010
Oswalt catches pop-flyu
phillies fans go crazy…awesome
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Rollins hustling so much to help out Oswalt.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
watching it on MLBN
and the cast there is making this great!
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
these guys on mlb network are a bunch of clowns
bluelg - August 24, 2010
way better than Baseball tonight crew
IMO
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
why phillies pull out Howard?
joshant - August 24, 2010
ejected.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
ok
joshant - August 24, 2010
defensive upgrade
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
haha
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Be funnier if it was for Glaus, but I appreciate the attempt.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
If this doesn't fire up the Phillies in the bottom of the 15th, IDK what would.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
c´mon Bourn get a f´d hit and then steal 2nd, 3rd, and home
joshant - August 24, 2010
Dude blazes.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
only Werth can do that
WE MUST SIGN HIM
KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
grounded out bunt :-|
MikeTrain - August 24, 2010
I'm just going to sit back and enjoy this game for fun..
Baseball shouldn’t always be life and death with every pitch… let’s just chill and enjoy an entertaining game.

KINGSLYTUT - August 24, 2010
Sad thing is no point in watching SC tomorrow. All 60 minutes will be dedicated to this game.
oVecKid - August 24, 2010
agree
this is sure as hell entertaining
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
Why did the gamecast say that Ross Gload was ejected?!?!?
BravesDawg16 - August 24, 2010
arguing during the Howard ejection
steeeeezzzzzz - August 24, 2010
gload tossed
bluelg - August 24, 2010
Ibanez almost ended the game
deewill23 - August 24, 2010

KJDH2154 - August 24, 2010
16th inning
deewill23 - August 24, 2010
Hold them Stros...
HEYJUDE - August 24, 2010
herndon is philly's last pitcher, right?
atl192485 - August 24, 2010
I think so
HEYJUDE - August 25, 2010
Their last relief pitcher, anyway.
TonyAlmeyda - August 25, 2010
right
that’s what i meant, heh
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
omg this is such a weird game…lol
go astros!
forgotten_glory - August 25, 2010
c´mon Astros
joshant - August 25, 2010
Angel Sanchez sucks

joshant - August 25, 2010
pence with the MVPchop
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
MLBN not showing the game now, Crap
HEYJUDE - August 25, 2010
how about a steal?
joshant - August 25, 2010
how about three?
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
Oswalt throws like a girl from outfield
KJDH2154 - August 25, 2010
pence big hit
MikeTrain - August 25, 2010
how about hit a ball to LF. Oswalt try to caught in a diving catch but he couldn´t
and he brokes his right hand. double RBI
joshant - August 25, 2010
I just saw the replay on ESPN of the ejection
It’s just another reason why MLB Umpires are horrible….looked like a power trip to me
KJDH2154 - August 25, 2010
what ejection?
joshant - August 25, 2010
Ryan Gorilla Howard
HEYJUDE - August 25, 2010
how is this not racist?
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
bc he looks like a gorilla?
MikeTrain - August 25, 2010
We were talking above how he was doing a gorilla impression during the ejection!
HEYJUDE - August 25, 2010
Banned.
oVecKid - August 25, 2010
Please don’t….
I will be good from now on :)
HEYJUDE - August 25, 2010
k.
oVecKid - August 25, 2010
mmmhmmm….
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
5 comments and no one cant tell me why Howard got tossed?
joshant - August 25, 2010
Got angry on a check swing and yelled at the third base ump and freaked out...
I seriously considered not answering just for fun, hahaha
SuperNewb - August 25, 2010
tossed his bat after a check-swing called a swing by 3rd base ump
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
for arguing balls and strikes
HEYJUDE - August 25, 2010
thank to all
joshant - August 25, 2010
what happened?
joshant - August 25, 2010

oVecKid - August 25, 2010
Giants were ahead of us in waivers
KJDH2154 - August 25, 2010
earlier in the season, before the deadline
marlins asked for a lot
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
Oswalt is batting behind Utley....
This is great

joshant - August 25, 2010

MikeTrain - August 25, 2010
because there´s no more relief pitcher for Phillies

At least the Cards lost

PHILLIES DOOMED BY MLB CONSPIRACY HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
i mean...
they need to somehow make up for the win they gave them against the marlins
forgotten_glory - August 25, 2010
If the Phillies end up losing in 16 innings and Howard getting suspended
It will make me feel a little better about tonights loss…
BravesDawg16 - August 25, 2010
will howard get suspended though?
i think he’ll get fined, mlb wouldn’t dare suspend howard
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
seriously
not unless he yelled at prince fielder
forgotten_glory - August 25, 2010
Haha yea no kidding
But going after an ump like that, he is going to be suspended. I would be shocked if he wasn’t
BravesDawg16 - August 25, 2010
Seriously
he was filled with rage. If he had got a hold of that Ump he would have tried to kill him…..

Ahhhhh yes
Cause I’m sure the hotel is going to let random people come in and walk to the rooms, then the umps are going to open their room and let them in so they can do…….whatever exactly it is he is thinking they are going to do to them….classic Philadelphian

oVecKid - August 25, 2010

a part of all of us wants that to happen
atl192485 - August 25, 2010
Phils fans would then go on to say
he is better than Prado
MikeTrain - August 25, 2010

oVecKid - August 25, 2010
MikeTrain - August 25, 2010
Gotta admit...
They were actually pretty awesome
As a whole Phillies fans are a good base, I think.. it’s just when you actually meet them individually you’re like… really?
SuperNewb - August 25, 2010
OMG
Fucking Kruk just gave the 5th best web-gem of the night to Roy Oswalt for catching a little league pop-up. Kruk is suck a twat
BravesDawg16 - August 25, 2010
alright guys
it was fun hanging around…hopefully we can get things going tomorrow and the astros can sweep…
forgotten_glory - August 25, 2010
This!
HEYJUDE - August 25, 2010
Sounds good to me.
oVecKid - August 25, 2010
I hope so!
But its a four game series FYI
BravesDawg16 - August 25, 2010
Roy Halladay pitching next. Plus, it’s a four-game series. Still, I hope the Astros win this series and the Braves end this road trip having gained some ground, even if it’s only one game.
TonyAlmeyda - August 25, 2010
Any night the Phillies fair worst than the Braves is a good night.
SuperNewb - August 25, 2010
+10000000000000
MikeTrain - August 25, 2010

SuperNewb - August 25, 2010
Oswalt proving why it was a horrible trade for him.....
Can’t even get a hit
KJDH2154 - August 25, 2010
