Wow. Can’t say Chipper or Brian would have done any better.
Top of the order coming up. DL better be ready.
Again, we’re letting them off the hook.
Can’t win without Nate and Yunel.

What I want to know more than anything is why a bunch of guys on a baseball blog are so interested in Frenchy’s choice of underpant.

I am not inclined to show you ANY respect now, chump. You are lucky I was even calling you Steve

Guys ,unless there is a new style of bunting that makes the ball disappear, there is not a good enough bunt to score Kotchman.

The reason we didn’t score with a guy on 1st and 2nd and nobody out is because the other guys weren’t able to get **on base**!
“Boy, I’m glad Bobby is such a legendary manager…I would ***never*** say he should be replaced with someone who knows which players should actually play. I have more fun watching a losing team and chatting online on a blog than improving my hometown club.”
You have no guts and are a first class jerk. Work on those 2 things.

Mitchell

I was afraid of that.
I thought maybe after that he would shut ‘em down or start blowing it.
If he can just go another inning without giving up any more, I’ll take it.
At least it was a solo shot.

“I love being down by 1 run in the 5th and realizing my chance of winning the game given this situation is low because my great manager plays all the low OBP players brainlessly.”
Steve, go to atlantabraves.com click sortable stats and click OBP. That should help you learn which players should be in the lineup, this could give you something intelligent to talk about on here besides trading Javier Vazquez for Mike Cameron.

A wag in the pressbox had a great comment as replays were showing that rather intimate spot where Lowe was struck by the pitch: “Where’s Skip when we need him.”

I wouldn’t want Braves fans to start emulating the bleacher bums and other degenerates at Wrigley Field any time soon but when is somebody going to throw the ball back?
