Like I said, he’d better get his mind right or it’ll be a long third. Save that emo crap for Gwinnett, these are the BIGS!

That stupid SOB Kelly Johnson!
He should be immediately benched for standing at home plate and watching that ball before deciding he may want to run…
Cost us at least one run already…
WAKE THE H*LL UP COX! YOU’RE PLAYING THE WRONG GUY!!!

Gotta love how KJ stood at the plate to admire his Baltimore Chop. Of course it would have been nice to see him actually run to first right away.
Cost us 1 run.

But Bobby will never say anything to Johnson. Im tired of hearing Joe Simpson say “that might get Kelly going” every game now. Let me guess. That close play at first is going to get him going?

Funny statement of the night so far.
Frenchy with a 3-0 count and Chip says, “we’ll see if Frenchy has a green light on this pitch.”
If Frenchy….yes THAT Frenchy…the Frenchy who is not known for being a good judge of pitches was given a green light, it would be grounds to fire Cox immediately!
Frenchy didn’t have the green light btw.
Did Kelly lose that ball? He paused at the plate after hitting it. He was thrown out by an eyelash. He doesn’t pause on that swing, Braves lead 1-0

What is wrong with you!
Great at-bat by Jeff too. Jeff, you still don’t have to swing with a 3-1 count. 3-1 doesn’t mean “swing.” It means use your eyes.

KJ didn’t run because he has the courage of a 12 year old girl and is a nervous wreck any time he feels an ounce of pressure. I’m serious, he’s the biggest wuss on the team. Watch him sulk in a corner when something doesn’t go exactly right.

If Kelly had not hesitated out of the box, he would have been safe, and Mac would have scored. Play Prado. He charges with energy. If Esco had done that, Bobby would have benched him

If Kelly Johnson had been runnning as soon as he hit the ball he would have been safe. Maybe Bobby should bench him.

cabravesfan – not to worry – left to get food with some appropriate liquid to get me the round trip mile and a half I needed – while waiting for the food had a pint of “Dazed and Infused,” an IPA from Boulder. I inadvertently let the significance of the day slide to the bartender, who quickly offered a free refill. While there I spoke with a haggardly female from South Carolina moving to the area who was applying for a job there, who asked me to come back in a few weeks to see if she was working there. At this point, wine, an ‘Insult to Philly’ sandwich, wine, and the blog – okay, also Jeter hitting a double – other than the last thing, a good evening for my neighbor’s birthday.
