Talking Chop

Open Thread overflow: Braves vs. Cards

Score's tied 3-3 thanks to shoddy defense.  Venters gets a BS unfortunately, Hanson gets a ND, now.

Scene is set up for the last at-bat win again!

Melky is like the real lead off man today

This is at least his third time leading off an inning.

Lets go Freeman!

Come on Freddie!

Freeman going yard would make me a happy fan.

FREDDIE

GOING YARD WOULD GET ME HAPPY

soooooo

why does hinske not get starts in LF anymore?

Probably because he hasn’t been hitting that well.

His batting is terrible.

Freeman is hitting .100

DFA HIM!!!

FREDY GONG YRD WULD MAUKE MU HAPEE
Wow

That cut was like the 27th out of For the Love of the Game

Actually

Melky led off innings four times today. Outs, all.

ROFL......
That says something about Alex Gonzalez, too

Making lots of outs to end innings.

Freddie Freeman!
Freeman K, but stands on 1st
Freeman on base by striking out!
Shocking - Molina missed one

freeman on base. autosingle up

Ok, that's a weird way to reach, but...

We’ll take it, right guys?

If it results in a run……otherwise, DFA HIM!!!!

Yeah, I'll take it too
If it were legal

I’d take taking a bat to Molina’s cup to forced the PB and run to first.

mets intching to cough up their lead

phils with 2 on, 1 out

we need to win first

could care less about the Phils right now

Too much stress – only tell us about positive turn of events please ;-)

I don't understand why people don't like Freeman's power potential.

The kid is huge and only 20

they are idiots

we got bigger things to worry about right now!

He has less career HRs than Marvin Freeman

Nobody doubts his power potential

Everyone just knows it hasn’t developed as of now.

Ugh, Phils threatening in the 8th
dont worry

the mets will bring krod in…oh wait..

Probably too late to talk seriously about Triple crown

Two different guys have at least a .015 edge in batting average.

Lets go Heyward!

So I haven’t been able to see most of this series… Who is this centerfielder and what have they done with Nate McLouth

Invasion of The Body Snatchers
Yadiers defense and McCann's offense should make a baby
And they shall call him

Brian Schneider

Another Heyward HR would be awesome....

Look who’s up.

it is inevitable

a prado walkoff, that is

Tonight's hero:

Brian McCann?
Derrek Lee?
Nate McLouth?
Brooks Conrad?

what inning are we in?
Heading to the 9th
As annoying as it is

I actually like that “Pig crying weee” commercial.

It's only funny

Because the pig is like this teen dickwad

I like that he has pinwheels

OT: Recent encouraging offensive signs

Over the last few games…
McCann seems to be back,
DLee has been hot,
McLouth has been hot
Heyward has been hot,
Omar is just Omar,
Prado is coming back…
good signs.
Just need to figure out what to do with sea bass and MVP…

Prado seems to be getting worse on defense, though.

Prado coming back?

Only his offense

he hasn't been bad
People need to get off his back. Sorry the guy is not perfect. He's been solid on D the entire year & has made plenty great plays.
No.

He was solid on defense at 2B. He’s been less than good at 3B.

downer doug says

mccann pops up too much
dlee GIDP in key situations
mclouth is flukey, he sucks
heyward is a rookie, is inexperienced, and should be benched or moved down in the lineup
omar only hits singles
prado makes crucial errors
sea bass waves at evertyhing
MVP is not so MVP-like

Come on Bobby put in Wags for once in this spot
No point not to

VULTURE WINS

He won’t do it. You know he won’t.

Well, I’ll be damned……first time ever he’s done it.

In the words of the Book:

Thou shalt never bring thy closer into a tie game on the road, regardless of the leverage of the situation, and regardless of whether Jesse Chavez has just walked the bases loaded without recording an out in extra innings.

Thou shalt occasionally bring thy closer into tie games at home.

Thou shalt not consider whether the two last-mentioned commandments make any goddamn sense in relation to one another.

Mets 4, Phillies 1 going to bottom of the 8th
Make that 4-3 now.
well

we will just have to walk off this one

4-3 mets. damn it. 8th inning. 2 out.
Damn it.

These Phils have GOT TO fucking lose.

J. Heyward grounded into fielder's choice, F. Freeman out at second

Hope we don’t see too many more of those over the next 15 years

J. Heyward homered, J. Schafer, M. Prado, and F. Freeman scored.

Freeman will hit behind Heyward in the lineup.

I don't know why that is necessarily true

Freeman may well be the guy who hits for a better average while Heyward has more pure power. Or perhaps we’ll realize that that #4 spot is more important that the #3 spot in the batting order.

I think a lot of the idea that Freeman is going to bat clean-up is based entirely on his role as a firstbaseman, and people are just used to first basemen batting fourth.

No.

I think Freeman will bat 5th.

no way heyward isnt batting 3rd
WAGS going for the W
Billy get an fn Wagner

C’Monnnn one time…..(Works in Poker why not Baseball

HOLY SHIT

wags is in!

Bobby is playin for teh winz.

Closers usually go for the wins in home games.

Pretty standard managing.

It’s not standard Bobby Cox managing…..

Actually it is

He’ll refuse to use him on the road, though, unless it’s a save situation.

No walks please.

WHAT THE **** WAGS

Mets have put in Manny Acosta to get Werth.

and he got his man.

Thank God. Now, inning is over. 4-3 going to bottom of 8th.

Werth K's to end the rally

MIDDLE 8th Inning.

ZOMG!!!

ACOSTA DID HIS JOB!?

If we’re expecting bunt – he may swing and surprise everyone

Walked someone to start the inning?

Unfortunately, yes
Sac bunt, runner at 2nd, 1 out.

good thing i pay for mlb.tv

so it can go out at times like this

fox saturday and espn sunday broadcasts are always blacked out. You can get around it by using a proxy server outside the US.

Bah....I think Wagner had time to go to 2nd on that.
Did I miss something?

I thought Wags struck out the first man he faced, THEN issued a walk.

you're dreaming, man..
Nope.

Just the walk….

KYLE RUDOLPH!!!!!!!

But who closes for New York now?

Takahashi is
we traded saito to the mets?
Junkballer vs.

Lower part of the order, sounds fun

That was a STRIKE

Deal Billy Wags.

Ugh....

Runner at 3rd with 2 outs.

Runner at 3rd, 2 outs…

We REALLY need an out now.

Lol

Rasmus runs sort of…odd.

noticed that too...lol
I would say he runs like a girl

But most girls I’ve seen run actually don’t look like that.

TWO DOWN. Rasmus moves to third.
One more to go

Get him Wags

Giants Padres

1-0 yesterday
0-1 today

We are seeing the living incarnation of saber conventional wisdom about bullpens.

Everyone who has analyzed it says relief pitching performance is far more volatile than any other major element of team performance. Earlier in the year, our bullpen was lights out. And now, it’s looking increasingly shaky.

wags is just throwing bullets

This guy looks doucheish

get em waggy

Looks kinda like Jack Parkman
WAGNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
END Cardinals threat in the 9th.

encouraging violence?

/BANNED

Billy Ice Water In Veins Wagner.

Despite 15 pitches

I would really love to see Wags out there to record at least an out or two in the 10th. If necessary, of course.

None of this talk about 10th innings. This game is ending in the 9th.

I hope so, too.
oh thank god

now lets take this one!

Prado, McCann, Lee

Definitely more encouraging than Melky and the pitcher’s spot.

WALKOFF TIME BABY!
by the way

gameday is the best thing any college ever invented

Martin

Time to make up for your mistake(S)

METS 8th...

Runner on second, one out.

SHUT UP NAPA GUY
Officaially gayest commercial ever or close to it
Right now, on the Braves' big scoreboard

They’ll be showing the dance cam, then after that, they’ll show highlights of another Braves walk-off win against the Cardinals. Expect to hear tons of cheering when Prado is announced to start the 9th.

Not necessarily always the opponent

Against the Mets it was the Conrad slam against the Reds

yes

time to walkoff

due up
Prado
BMac
Conrad
Nate

who will get the walkoff

I'll say McCann.

Solo homer. Mark it.

Gotta go with the Raw Dog

Why does Pepsi always portray their truck drivers as total assholes in their commercials?

Because Pepsi sucks?
OHHH OH OHHHH OHHHH OH OH OH
Come on Prado - make up for that error!
WALK-OFF cam'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan
prado/ mccann / ANKIEL

WAAAT

Go Braves! Win it and Win it NOW!

let's goooooooooooooo
IF THAT WAS A STRIKE...

Wags got robbed twice.

GREAT CATCH

= EXTRA INNINGS

Big Mac: solo HR

No extras.

Ugh

Well, all right. It’ll only take one swing from McCann to make us forget THAT dumb play.

Watch out Glen Hubbard!

Come on Heap – we need ya.

HEAP Big Stick time
It hung up there

luck, luck lol

Mets just made stupid play to end bottom of 8th threat
It's hard to even be disappointed

With the Mets, it’s what you expect.

this is their second flyout DP of the game

HAHAHHA LOLMETS

METS done in the 8th with a Vidro
someone, walkoff..

our team..

ankiel walks off on former team.

How about another reviewable walk-off homer

I want a no-doubter.

so hard to please
I want it to get robbed so my last piece of hair falls out

Only reason this game is tied is the Cardinals have played spectacular defense while the Braves defense has been sub par.

Story of our last few weeks.
Thats very nice of you.....more like suckish

Um, he is supposed to swing at strikes.

Bobby is such a tard Boscan woulda hit a homer
McCann strikes out looking....

2 outs.

All up to Ankiel

We’ll get’em in the 10th!

Did he really just stand there and watch that?

Frozen on something off-speed — clearly expected the express.

cards are scurrred of ankiel
They're about the only ones.
PH Ankiel?

sure…

he was already in the game

pinch ran for lee

Oh didn't see that
Ankiel will try to hit one here too.
0-2 count to Ankiel....

Who can predict the outcome?

Wow this ump blows my balss
That was not a strike.
Sweet

SD won!

It doesn't matter.

SD and SF are equivalent in terms of threat to us, and one of them had to win.

Oh

I thought SD had a 1 gm lead already and San Fran was i the WC

Nah, they were tied.

But even with 1 game or 2 up, they’re still about equally threatening, at least until one of them just falls out of it.

They were tied, I dont think it really mattered...
yep over an hour ago
What's with these outside strike calls????

You know, we’ve had a bunch of improbable walkoff hero moments.
One more, please.

The moist improbable was Ankiel’s against the Cubs…. not a walkoff, per se, but effective.

Full count to Ankiel....

I’m amazed. I still suspect the same outcome, though.

Im calling popout to 2nd

This is the pitch for him to end it.

I want to see McLouth back up...
Tying run at 2nd in NY
no

the mets will win

Where the McClouth haters at?

Still here?

McLouth..
Too bad he's no longer in the game.
Im glad hes doing well. I wasnt giving up

Because 15 ABs make up for 1.5 years of sucking.

He was actually pretty good for us last year

It was only half of this year that he sucked.

Well he wasn’t unplayably bad but he didn’t put up near the numbers that he had in Pittsburgh.

Bobby should only put him in, when its only compltely obvious he wont get an at-bat
we guys

ankiel didn’t K! that breaks his streak! PROGRESS!

I'm actually watching the Mets/Phillies game now....

I’m praying.

how many outs? anyone on base?

They got 2 outs…..Phillies have tying run on 3rd base. 1 more out….please?

I never count on the Mets for anything but a good laugh

I won’t be laughing today….

Even less point in praying than usual

Mets are fated to lose every game when it would help us to win. They’re the Phils’ anti-spoiler.

Mets trying to lose

man on 2nd. 1 out.

Saito in the 10th.

Phillies... 9th inning

One out; Sweeney doubled.
Valdez up… 2 and 2 count vs. Takahashi… groundout. Runner to 3rd w/2 outs.

carlos ruiz

*gulp

METS WIN!!!!!!!
Never thought I'd see that here.

I lol’ed.

Ok, now let's not recreate the pattern, Bravos

We CAN win when the Phillies lose, and we will.

Nice play there by Freddie.

troy glaus looking like the grouch?
Anyone else noticing

Saito grabbing his right hamstring after pitches?

He’s twitching too.

Freeman plays some good defense....

Just saying that to Hubby

More predictable?

1) Ankiel grounds in his only AB
2) Sun rises at 7:18 AM tomorrow.

2.) I would of guessed striked out or Lazy pop-up
Come on, you have to admit...

He certainly beat, or at least confounded expectations by not striking out.

Ankiel can get out even if he doesnt get a PA.

for instance. yesterday running 1st to 3rd

1 more out, so McLouth can win this for us in the bottom of the 10th.....
mclouth's out of the game :(
These announcers have no clue how great FF is.

smh

how great he is?

hes 1-11 to start his career, yea he had a good minor league career, but so did brandon wood, stop giving him too much credit before hes done anything

why the brandon wood namedrop?

wood has 400+ PA in the majors. i don’t know what you’re implying…

other than that

i agree with how deewill shouldn’t have said “how gereat FF is”

Saito, 1-2-3 inning....

WINZ TIME!!

Let's WIN this now.
WE NEED TO WIN NOW

don’t want to see pujols and holliday vs. farns

Oh God

That sounds like the script for some terrible baseball-themed horror film.

MIDDLE TENTH. STILL TIED UP.
Who's due up?
The dregs.

Conrad
Gonzo
Melky

AKA Capt. Walkoff

Captain Popup
oops, that was Gonzo

Two outs already? My oh my, Kyle Farnsworth’s date with Pujols is just hurtling towards us!

finsh them

make them look like babies

I smell.......walk-off
NO FOX WENT OUT

and nvm

c´mon fishish them

Hinske
Gonzalez
Melky
FF

I hope Kimbrel is warming up instead of Farns

….but I will take a walkoff

grounder to first grounder to first...........
Lol

Did they really call Mike Sweeney a “Nice addition for the Phillies.” That’s like saying “Rick Ankiel has really done a lot for the Braves.”

Gonzalez does it again!!

How about making him throw some pitches?!!

gonzo sure is good at getting on base

2 quick outs

let’s walkoff NOW

2 quick outs :(
Gonzo just does not look good today

At all.

neither does melky
melky looks horrible

Nor Melky. Hope that changes right now.

Nor Prado on the error

that led to the tie game.

Easy f-ing inning.

Ok, whoever that is telling us “______ does it again!” needs to stop.

Well, Gonzalez did do it again

And so did Melky. “It,” of course, means “making easy outs.”

Did it just once. Not sure anyone else has written that, either.
Here's an idea - if we make it to the 11th - how about making the pitcher actually WORK
nah

1-pitch walkoff HR plz

we're guaranteed to make it to the 11th, we're at home
words out of my mouth
farns

for the love of sweet baby jesus
GET IT DONE

who pitches now?
Hopefully Kimbrel, but probably Farns
can't depend on bottom of the order
I would rather see Kimbrel come in instead of Farns
Ok, show of hands: who would rather have Chipper strap on his pitcher's glove and hobble out to the mound...

Rather than allow Kyle Farnsworth to face Pujols and Holliday?

of course. what kind of question is that?
GET CHIPPER'S ASS IN THAT BULLPEN NOW!
Since we're playing this game

I’d rather have had him hobble out there on one leg, carrying his crutch to the batter’s box, rather than have Ankiel hit.

how bout

we work the count, get a good pitch to hit and get base runners…instead of trying to crank one out….

Not nearly as exciting
Nooooo

not teh farns

We are so screwed with Farnsworth in.

have faith!

c’mon farns!!

oohhhh boy. Farnsworth.
These announcers make me thankgod for our normals
I thought they were alright..
we dont have anyone better than farns??
would u really wanna put o'flaherty in with pujols and holliday coming up?
How about Craig Kimbrel or Cristhian Martinez?
Who do we have due up?

FF
Infate
Heyward
PRado

freeman then

top of the order

Farnsworth vs. Pujols

10k to 1 odds for Farnsworth. Any betters looking to take the longshot?

Farnsey throws FIAH!
FARNSWORTH GOT PUJOLS!!!

A MIRACLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Serenity Now!

A Festivus Miracle

Love these graphics that Fox keeps throwing up on the screen. Whew — Albert is canned.

1 base out of Holliday and Pujols

Far betterr than we had any right to hope for.

yea im cool with a single
This.

I would’ve expected 8 total bases from that pair against Farnsworthless.

Just sets up the inevitable double play
I know we're all over Farnsworth here

But that was a pretty sick slider that Holliday just hit.

There's your protecting the line, chicagobullies!!
Coaches fault, rite? haha
Gonzalez and Melky having a bad day

0-10 6 LOB (all from Gonzalez)

Melky would probably have some LOBs

If Alex wasn’t ending innings right in front of him repeatedly.

heyward hasnt robbed any homers yet

he kinda needs to

lets hope

we dont get to that point

Heyward did get robbed of robbing a HR….damn fan snatching the ball.

Will that do?

Not a HR, but still!

reply fail, again
well

he just robbed a single!

Close enough, right?
I'd kill for a vidro here....
please 4-6-3

c´mon

Eeeesh

Don’t walk him.

Farns just likes the drama, lets all relax
HEYWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's your robbery

Good lord

wow

heyward, i love you

if that's hit to melky

that’s an inside the porker

porker?

Freudian slip?

nah

you must’ve missed smoltz’s joke yesterday

I don’t get Peachtree.

shucks.

just spoiled the punchline for you then

lmfao, hahahahahahaha
As the name says J.Hey is god
Once you get past Rasmus...

This lineup softens up reeeeeeal fast.

kinda like our lineup today

after the 6-spot

What did I miss? Everything?
beatthemets?

GO AWAY PHILLY FAN DONT VOMIT ON ME

Not a Philly fan

i know

but the phils did play the mets today

College football has made me baseball dumb today

Farnsworth is moving extremely slow
THAT'S A STRIKE IF A CARDINAL THROWS IT

Moylan laughs at your sleeve tats Felipe

C'mon Farnsworth.....FINISH HIM!!
Mark Grace is so intelligent
Farnsworth is going to give me a heart attack....
"The only Cardinal who's been able to drive in a run today is Pujols."

Isn’t that true of most days?

K
Stop with your bad predictions
please don't do that for those of us who depend on this to know what's going on

Ended with routine groundout to second.

END of the Cardinal 11th!
this is how we do it
Great

J.Hey up 3rd …How many times do you see a great defensive play, then a game winner??

Holliday was the 1st hit that Farnsworth gave up during September
Interesting tid-bit ....gracias

Hasn’t he only pitched 2-3 times in September?

Start Spiller or Cadillac in PPR??
Seriously?

It isn’t even close…Spiller is the obvious choice

Absolutely

Cadillac is too injury prone…Spiller FTW

Spiller is so dirty
Spiller?

What are the match ups?

Cliff Spill

plays Miami, but he is starting

So does Cadillac

and Browns D sucks hard

Still

Spiller is too nasty

That's why I'm tempted to start Caddy.

Freeman is hurt, but playing. PPR is negligible in this case because Buffalo has no QB

So the consensus is Spiller, correct?
Farnsy throw straight FIYAH!
CMON

Braves offense

hypothetically

which inning will we have to get to, to see a position player pitch, with the expanded rosters and all?

21st

then we say whatddup bitches BOOM Rick ankiel

rick probs won't be in the game by then

The only problem with that is the reason why he stopped being a pitcher – control issues.

Right

I bet McCann is a better pitcher

A long time… Kawakami would be in before then.

Now would be a good time for Freeman's second hit.

don’t swing freddie!

Leadoff walk would be nice
I know my eyes opened at the crack of that bat.
wtf

What is with the uppercutting? His swings didn’t look close to that in AAA.

this ain't AAA pitching
He's also pressing too much.
And that's not a major league swing
unless ya Nate McLouth
Even he's a little more level than that
you mean his swing?
Heyward......the Gods are Calling do ur divine duties
Heyward time....

HR, please?

CMON

1st walk-off HR is always nice

FUCKING SWING THE BATS

well do you want them to be patient or aggressive? people will moan regardless.

The 2nd and 3rd batters watched strikes one and two. We can’t have that.

strikes arent necessarily good pitches to hit
ill take a single..please
Use the Force Heyward!
Chili was great... now how about a WIN

This guy is loving that curveball

at least infante got 6 PAs

They have to stop watching pitches right down the middle.

Heyward: Walking Machine
I wanted to see him swing
if i'm a pitcher and i'm facing heyward

i would literally **** my pants

Prado

You Must Atone

1st to home on a single.

Kindly requesting Heyward score from first on Prado single
Rake..... please do.
Way to pass the buck JHey
You'd rather

take the walk than have him chase out of the zone.

Just kidding peeps

Chill

McClellan isnt looking so locked in now, huh Gracey
LOL

Cops “Season premiere”? They actually have seasons of that “show”?

Yes. Each season is 365 episodes.

*Most people call them years.

I think

this is season 20.

So many strikes taken today…

is that a bad thing?

we have drawn walks

Wow served that one up for him
Damn....going to the 12th :(
East Bound and Down

starts 2 weeks from tommorow!

Oh God Not Brendan Pujols
Is Farns going for a 2nd inning or what?
Bobby looks like he needs a nap, time to argue haha
Probably needs his meds crushed up in his tapioca pudding.

That K/BB rate is ugly.

apparently frontdoor sliders are only strikes for cardinals pitchers...
You all are great company, but I really didn't desire to spend 4hrs+ here today

Hahaha
Let’s end this thing in the 12th

I hear that.

If this game goes past 13 innings, I’m probably leaving….

haha

definitely agreed

Wow this ump seems pretty damn biased
when was the last hit of the braves?

it was Heyward HR?

I think so

we haven’t had a hit in four innings

Kimbrel seems like a cocky S.O.B

I love it

FINISH HIMMMMMMMMMMM
Alabama 14, Penn State 0

Just starting the second quarter.

BEGONE!!!

I’m actually a Florida fan, but I’m living in Alabama… like it or not, I got it.

No.

You are being banished for talking football, period.

OT

who has the best walk-up song in the MLB?(batters only)

gotta be tulo
He's awesome

great player a great character…from Miley cyrus walk-up to that sick mullet…he is just awesome!

Was it one of the Upton Brothers who had Miley Cyrus?

I vote him

haha

I like Niel Walkers…as much as I hate Drake i love the beat to “show me a good time”

I think it's Frenchy

who has “Your Love” by The Outfield playing when he comes to bat. I love that song and I hardly get to hear many walk up songs so that’s my pick.

He's throwing strikes and looking good
does kimbrel throw slider or curveball?
Kimbrel for closer 11
depends

if Venters still has a left arm

Yep

I will take him or a proven veteran.

kimbrel looking great

brendan ryan

UH OHS

Announcers love Kimbrel.
control issues?

WHAT control issues?

KIMBREL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KIMBRELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
it seems he improves his command

15 pitches, 12 strikes

Kimbrels control

looks so much batter than his last MLB stint

That was fiercely nasty.
99! and he's a frieking beast
PPPLLEEASSE

lets end this!

Lets put this game

AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!
RunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRunsRuns

dear lord

That was the dirtiest, nastiest, Briney Spears filthy slider I’ve seen in a long time

gameday said changeup
Well I'm watching

And that thing bit down harder than Andy Dufresne’s threats

yea

looked like a slider to me…

Really liking the idea

Of Kimbrel as our 2011 closer.

hey there everyone

So what did I miss? lol

Kimbrel in beast mode, all you need to know

great inning. LETS SCORE

c´mon let finish this.
Anyone have a video of Ankiel's meltdown in the NLDS?
I want to see it too...

I don’t wanna be reminded of that game in any way, shape, or form.

Come on BMAC!

Slap one in the stands!

Finish this quickly...

I was wondering how it is not raining downtown

It won't be dry for long.

3 pitches, 1 out

ANKIEL WALKOFF NOW
Be patient

Boggs can be wild at times.

Not sure Ankiel knows this "patient" of which you speak

2 at bats in a row he went to full count

from 0-2 no less
Well if that's the way we're gonna play it...

Not sure Hinske knows this “extra-base hit” of which you speak.

Meaningless reprieve
Ankiel.....please have something useful you've been given a second chance

Now let’s see a gapper to Left — anything 15 feet left of Holliday will work.

Im glad he didnt catch it but...

what the fuck was that Holliday

WOW

DO MY EYES DECEIVE ME

Wait

Who is that GI Joe looking guy on 1st?

Can we please win?

My wife finally awoke, cooked me dinner, and is waiting for me to come eat….

you're wife may just be what we needed!
Same here except insert hubby for wife .....
I think we have been waiting for your wife the whole time
OMGOMOGMOGMOGMOMGOMGOMG
alright alright alright!!!
Now, man on 3rd with 1 out

Lets end this NOW!
Sac fly sac fly sac fly sac fly sac fly

Pleeeeease win this thing

AGON BE USEFUL FOR ONCE
C'mon now

He was the only guy doing anything during the first two games of that miserable Pirates series.

fair enough

but he’s had a bad day so far

RUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZRUNZ now please

Gonzalez with a .667 average against this pitcher.....
Alex, PLEASE just elevate and send it deep enough to score
agon is 4-for-6 lifetime vs. boggs
hola all again...

i was away for a while… i tought the game was over looong ago….

RUNZ!!! OMG RUNZ!!! PLEASE GOD RUNZ!!!!!
SQUEEZE !?
Please no.

It will fail.

Now that’s an interesting idea.

Don't strike out, don't strike out, don't strike out, don't strike out.....
NoVidroNoVidroNoVidroNoVidroNoVidroNoVidroNoVidroNoVidro
Ankiel's fast

It can even be a medium-length fly ball, Alex.

You can do a medium-length fly ball, right?

fly ball

fly ball
fly ball
fly ball
fly ball
fly ball
fly ball
fly ball

BRAVES WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Game OVER!

Braves Win!

ANOTHER last at-bat win!!!!

AGON WALKOFF HR!!!!!!!!!
GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCK YES FUCK YES

TELL ME WHO GOT CHILLS NOW TELL ME

I did and screamed like a school girl

yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EXPLOSION

HOMER!!!!!!! HOMER!!!!!!!

CUE THE RAINBOW LLAMASAURUS!!!!

I’m going eat dinner. BYE!

some phillie fan just c**e

Someone care to give a quick recap?

Greatness, greatness

fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail fail

SUCESSS!!!!!

Good enough for me

It would have been kind of epic

If he’d gotten the walk-off hit and still ended up with a negative WPA. He just barely avoided that distinction.

nice win

let’s finish the series tomorrow

Wow

That’s all I can really say.

MLB.com box score says Moylan got the BS

If so, it was not due to an earned run. To the contrary, he got Pujols and Holliday to weakly ground out with the sacks full to get out of a full-blown jam.

No SS in the league has more homers than Gonzalez

Hmmm.

He seriously...crushed it.
kris medlen ...

backwards batting helmet – classic.

whether this team does what we’d like them to – they sure are fun to watch sometimes.

I wish I went to this game tonight, but im going tomorrow.
I am so happy for Alex and all the Braves players and fans!!

Now on to eat my dinner and watch some SEC football :) Good evening all

Great WIN and I'd love to see another tomorrow!

Gonzo hit that so hard.....

he broke the box score.

bulls$%t stats

How Moylan earns a BS?
