Thankfully Bonafacio and Ramizer bailed out Gonzo by having impatient at bats and swinging at balls and pitches in the dirt.

cabravesfan – wow – totally agreed with you on JJ’s removal (i.e. against it) and you misconstrued it – you are so lucky that I am completely in the tank for you. As a consequence, you must drink a little more wine, and I will consider additional modes of punishment.

Seriously, Miami should be ashamed, this is a good, young exciting team. I’m not sure how you argue they deserve a franchise. The Oklahoma City Marlins…now that Los Angeles Lakers weird.

Greg Norton HAS to be the worst player in all of baseball. I guess he isn’t content with being an automatic out, he has to be 2 automatic outs per AB now.

two huge strikeouts by the NL batting leader (H. Ramirez) tonight, one with a runner at third and one out in the fifth, and that one with two on to end the seventh in a tie game.

RHR: Gary Coleman is actually pretty fat, Shamus.
Correct RHR, but does his diminutive fatness outweigh the ability to enter a Dwarf House door and clear it by a foot? In poundage? Fat azz prolly still weighs 100.
OK, my first sentence confuses even me, just ignore please…

White Sox lefty Mark Buehrle has now retired 43 straight batters to set a Major League record.
6th inning. Are you kidding? Wow. Could it happen again?

Dave, I’m telling you it’s really hard to believe a team with no fans, no stadium, no big TV deal, and basically no owner has won 2 more World Series in the last 16 years than the Cubs have won in last 100 and of course 1 more than Milwaukee/Atlanta has won in last 51. Very strange!!!

Art of managing. Piniella just pinch hits for a position player with sacks full in the 4th inning with TWO out and guy delivers. The Cubs who were losing big are now back in a game that is winnable. Bobby would never do anything unconventional or operate on a hunch. Sometimes you just can’t play close to the vest.

DOB, thanks for pointing that out, but that’s like talking about a no-hitter while the game is still on. Watch Ramirez come back and bite the Braves before this game is over.

There have NEVER been consecutive perfect games. Only pitcher to throw 2 straight no hitters was a Reds pitcher in the 30’s. I’m blocking out his name. Think it was 38.

ok gonzo didn’t blow the game, but my boy moylan is next and he is another candidate!!!! Just make sure one of those “sinkers” stay high and I’m off the hook yet again! Braves fans love to complain about the bullpen so they’ll forget all about lil ole me!

“”Pitcher throws back-to-back “perfect” games ??….Bet that hasn’t been done in a while…”"
That would be one of the greatest feats (if I’d wanted to amuse the house yankees, I’da used “feets”) in baseball, if not arguably THE greatest.

“has a pitcher ever thrown even no hitters back to back?”
Yes. Once, in the late 1930’s or early 40’s, pretty sure it was like 1938 or 1939 — Johnny Vandermeer of the Reds.

I got a perfect game question…
If someone throws a perfect game, yet the team gets an error on a pop-FOUL ball, and the end boxscore results in 0-0-1 does the pitcher still get credit for a “perfect” game?
