Of course the braves will lose when the rockies and phillies are losing.
oh wait the phillies are just in the 8th? Nevermind, theyll score 8 or more in the 9th and win it.

F the Braves.
F this game. Screw it. You can’t f***ing not score one run off this nobody and expect to make the playoffs.
I don’t care if they win the next two games, it’s unacceptable.
Don’t f***ing blame the fans. I think we’d all like to consider ourselves “real” Braves fans who if we were there wouldn’t be sitting on our @$$es like a bunch of lazy idiots. But hey, we’re not there. Sue us.
I still don’t want to hear one word of it if they don’t find a way to win this. It’s a pathetic excuse and it’s unprofessional.

Listening to the Braves, watching Sox-Sox on mlb.com. Note to pitchers — there is a reason the other five guys in the infield have gloves. They are the ones who catch the pop ups. Not you.
(Okie just dropped a pop up just behind the pitcher’s mound to put the go-ahead run on base.)
And for the Braves, to go into the ninth down 1-0 … to the freakin’ Padres?
Ugh.

Finally, Boog and Simpson explained in a proper way why you keep putting a hitter like Chipper and McCann in the line-up, even when they are struggling. Like Simpson said, Chipper can be in an 0 for 40 slump and Bud Black, the Padres manager, will say to himself “well, I’ve seen him play before and this could be the time he busts out of it”.
Chipper and McCann puts pressure on the opposing pitcher, even if they are struggling.

even if the braves came back to win, which they wont, this will go down as probably the most disappointing and disheartening game of the season.

the braves have to tie this up — it will delay the wrap up show with chip as long as possible.
(Look, we know you’re getting close to deadline there, DOB … but we have our own self-serving motives, too. Could be worse. Could be Mitch “uh” Evans doing the postgame.)
