What the hell, Diaz? You’ve got 8 hits in your last 9 at-bats. Why are you friggin bunting? Horrible.

I think KJ could have scored from 1st on that. He’s the fastest guy on the team with McLouth DLed.
Mitchell

Damn it Matt. That would have been a game winner if he didn’t hit it so hard.
Dammit.
We better not lose it now.
Come on bullpen.

At least we tied it. Hell of an attempt by Diaz would have been sweet way to win.

ummm………why did Diaz bunt again???? Hes SO hot right now!!!
Paul Lentz

I doubt that Bell comes out for the bottom of the 10th. It took him 24 pitches to blow the save. The Padres have used their set up man and closer. We still have out closer and set-up man left.
In other words, we should win the game against the weak Padres bullpen.

I love Adam Laroche. I wonder if Shamus is warming up to him yet?

He could’ve walked to first if he would’ve bunted it toward second

ok thats 3 games that isaid that there goin down 1 2 3 but matt what the hec were u thinking….. unrealll that was a freebeee… good grief think man.. a hit wins the game that wasnt close especially against a guy throwing 92 winning run on 3rd.. use ur stinkin heads..

8 for his last 9 and he tries to SURPRISE THE D. it was a smart play, but pushed too far to the 1B. get it in between the 1B and 2B, or even to the 2B and he’s on base.

Steve from OH

He might have, KL. Would’ve been close IMO. Could be wrong. Still, dunno why Cox didn’t pinch-run though in that spot…
If it wasn’t JJ’s start tonite I think he would’ve run JJ though.

Capps blew a 5 run 9th inning lead against the Phillies during their 10 game winning streak earlier this year.

Kelly Bolt definitely would have scored there. He might have even beaten Gorecki home.

Now I would expect a little more fan noise but no…
Just be careful Gonzo.

Yup. I still think it was a good idea. If he could’ve just steered it towards second.

COX IS A MORON! WHY WAS GARRETT NOT LIFTED FOR A PINCH RUNNER? GORECKI WAS ALREADY COMMITTED TO THE GAME, SO PUT IN A PITCHER TO RUN FOR GARRETT AND HAVE GORECKI REPLACE GARRETT. COX IS A STUPID FOOL!

Sweet moses… the Braves tie the game in the bottome of the ninth, and bloggers are STILL finding things to be negative about… Should have pinch-run for Anderson! Why is Diaz bunting? Blah blah blah it’s always the same crap from you people. If the Braves win (God forbid, right guys?) I can’t wait to see the complaints STILL rooooolll in.

Phils lead 4-3 in the ninth. Rox are tied at 2.
Mr. Enigma
August 25th, 2009
9:59 pm
They couldn’t pinch run for Anderson because they just burned the last guy they could use to play the outfield to pinch-run for McCann. That’s why Church being hurt and not on the DL sucks.

I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed, but why bunt with two outs? Even if GA somehow scores before Diaz gets thrown out, the run doesn’t count…soooo what’s the logic? That Diaz gets a bunt single? Come on…Piss poor Bobby…

VJ–inconsequential now, yes, but IMO it was a smart move with Gorecki aleady in the game (he’s better in the field, too). I dunno. Didn’t matter in the end, no need to worry about it any further.
