Tomahawk Mafia, Ankiel actually has some pretty poor numbers against the Braves.

It pays to suck for awhile and stockpile young studs. Braves did it in the 80s.

Every one of these guys could pursue a career as a magician. They pull trick after trick on ways to lose every night.
They must own some kind manual for losing.

A “beast” in RF doesn’t botch throws to first, or lollygag to “routine base hits” that turn into doubles (like what happened last time)…

Wrong side Hinske….. try rightcenter…. shoulda just bunted him over. Well, anyways, we got Prado

Nothing terrible, just outmatched with that change up. Prado has my confidence though.

Why wouldnt hinske bunt freeman over, then all you need is a sac fly to get him in to tie it?

I would have used a pitcher like Hudson to bunt Freeman over.

Don’t know if Hinske is a great bunter, Freeman ain’t all that fast, and Jack Wilson isn’t on the bench to pinch-bunt…. Bourny will get a chance to tie this up, maybe even win it.
Hmmmm
June 29th, 2012
10:49 pm
dang, they’re trying to set up a game ending double play (unintentionally)

Nice plate appearance by Prado. The bad thing is that it sets up a double play.

If Simmons can get on, Heyward is 4-5 against Clippard, with a triple. Get to JHey

no pinch runner for Freddie? One of the pitchers has to have better speed.
