Prado sees nothing but OFF-SPEED stuff over the plate….I’d pinch-hit INFANTE for CABRERA

if only the braves would stop swinging at crap, they gave away an out with the bunt which wasnt a strike, and prado also swung at ball 2

How will Chipper blow this? That is the question.

Chipper simply cannot hit a 95 MPH fastball any more.

He can only hit one that’s 100 MPH.

I thought Chipper couldn’t catch up to a major league fast ball anymore?

I like Chip’s call of the HR.

“This one has a chance…..”

Was there any doubt the second he hit it? The only thing left to chance on that swing was if it was going to end up on the concourse.

If that proves anything it’s that the guy made a bad pitch.

It’s about time he got around on one. He’s only our number three hitter.

Chipper was out there at least 15-20 seconds before his teammates came out. Huge applause. He put his hands out at one point as he looked to dugout smiling, like, ‘Come on, fellas.’ Couple of them waved him off, like, no, you’re gonna get feted whether like it or not.

There’s that sweet LH swing from Chipper! Now he’s figured out his mechanical issue (which is what I said all along) look out opposing teams. He’s got a pound of flesh to extract.

just how hard do you have to work to be that much of an AH? Or does it just come natural? Cause your tone sure sounds like you are serious and not being facetious.

Kawakami – 7 innings, 1 run and 2 hits. He’s pitched like this more times than once but not gotten the win. He’s sort of the mirror image of Derek Lowe in the support column but it just goes to show how little some people know. Really he should be about 4 – 6.

While Mitchell seems to make his comments with a little hatred and anger behind them…. he has a point people.

It’s almost July and our #3 hitter just hit his 5th HR. Exciting and cool moment for Chipper and it appears he’s coming around, which is NOTHING but a good thing.

But it’s about time he has a huge hit like he seemingly produced on a daily basis in the past.

Not complaining…. just saying.

Blanco has given this team a lot of quality ABs in the limited opportunities he has had. with Heyward out for a few games, I hope he gets a chance to show he should not be the odd mann out when both Diaz and McLouth are ready to play.
