Well, after winning a squeaker in game 1, we drop game 2. Obviously wasn't as bad as the final score would indicate.. lolchavez.

But I thought Tommy pitched well, and it's unfortunate that he couldn't get a win.

Bravos touching up Haren today. Glaus continues with his hot bat, and Prado continues with consistant play.

[Mesmer]

We would be in the playoffs if we could play the Astros and Brewers all season.

We would be in the playoffs if we could play the Astros and Brewers all season.

So would everyone else. We're 10-6 since the nine game losing streak, which just goes to show you how hard it is to recover from that many losses in a row. We're playing good ball right now and beating bad teams, we just lost one game to the Mets last night.

[Mesmer]

Woo make that 11-6. What an exciting finish.

[Joscott]

Medlen did a very nice job last night. Not everyday you can get a spot start and down Santana like he did. This is his chance to prove he should be a starter even when Jair returns. Kawakami has a lot more to prove now.

And the Legend of Heyward grows........

Feels great to be .500

[Kakarot]

Feels great to be .500

Yes it does. Now lets see if they can keep this up, and get comfortably above .500.

I havent bought a baseball jersey in years, but I think I'm going to order me a Heyward jersey. Andruw and Chipper Jones were my fav players growing up, but Heyward is quickly rising up the ranks. Great game today. J-Hey does it again.

[BF91]

Hanson and Leake will give us a great match-up of young, top-flight starting pitchers tomorrow. Should be a pitcher's duel.

Damn. I DVR pretty much every game (directv extra innings), and try to watch them that night if i can. Sometimes I'll watch live, sometimes i'll fast forward and do a 15 minute game summary before i go to bed. However, tonight i went to a seminar after work and forgot to set my dvr to record tonights game. And forgetting is hard to do considering i can set my dvr to record from my phone. And now i'm sad.....and a little drunk.

[BF91]

Bobby would have infuriated you with his bullpen decisions, just like old times. We did win though!

[SCPantherFan90]

On a side note, John Smoltz and Joe Simpson can call a great game.

Chip Carey is cool and everything, but he jinxes the poo outta the Braves every single game he announces....and thats the only curse I believe in: The Curse of the Announcer.

[BF91]

Chip Carey sucks. How his dad and grandpa were so good and he's nowhere even close to them is beyond me.
