I can’t have DirecTV here. Won’t let us put anything on the roof. I miss my DirecTV so much. If Time Warner was sucked into the vortex of hell, I would be happy.

Heyward looks like he is leaning back a lot more and standing a lot further from the plate than he did last year when he was hitting well. I don’t know if he actually is or it just seems like it to me.

Ichiro homers on first pitch Hanson throws coming off DL….
Kimbrel, by the way, got to 100 career strikeouts Mon. in 59-1/3 inn., fastest Braves pitcher ever (John Rocker had the mark, 100 K in 70 inn)…
66 degrees at first pitch, which they say is warm here even this time of year at night.

Heyward had an incredible selfish not trying to go the other way AB grounds into a DP McCann strikes out and Hanson gives up a HR to Ichiro………..well we done lost this game guess I’ll turn back to ESPN and watch some GOOD baseball. Fire Larry Parrish but I guess we got a few more shutouts to go.

@cabravesfan….Of course it’s seriously not funny because it is a ‘put down’ to the Braves and their efforts in the contest, but, to me it’s a bit funny because the people doing it just want to irritate others a bit by saying something totally crazy…..sometimes “crazy” is funny. Hope you’re doing good!

sending Freddie with Uggla having a 3-2 count? Sure, what could go wrong with a speedster and a contact hitter

Why on earth would you hit and run with Uggla at the plate and a slow runner on first who will get gunned down easily when Dan swings and misses?

3 ugly helicopter swings from Uggla, I haven’t been noticing but I don’t think he fouls many pitches off. I think he’s either swing and miss or put the ball in play

Uggla has to know he is pulling his head and body out. It is painfully obvious to everyone. Even our announcers showed last year’s swing versus his current swing. He must choose not to change. When he missed that slider he was facing the pitcher. No way could he see his bat hit the ball
