Atlanta Braves II

[underscore]

There we go, this is exactly what they needed to do tonight. Get on 'em early and often.

And to top it off, Strasburg threw 38 pitches that half inning.

I was wondering what the count was. As short a leash as the Nats have on him, he'll be lucky to make it more than 3 or 4 innings.

If Prado took more pitches than, uh, one... he would be well over 40...

His curve ball has a ton of bite, reminds me of Kerry Wood before his arm fell off.

 

[underscore]

Prado took a pitch!

Good test for the Braves here. Lead-off walk to your lead-off hitter. He should score.

Ta-da!

Yeah, you gotta score there.

 

[Gilbert]

O'Ventebrel should be able to hit the showers now.

 

[GAVol]

Need to get Huddy out of there asap.

 

[underscore]

He certainly does not look comfortable out there... his shoulder/neck is really bugging him. He might as well go on the DL too since everyone else is on it.

 

[underscore]

I do not understand why Hudson is still out there. He looks like either his arm is gonna fall off first or he's gonna pass out.

 

[BigOrange15]

Very true. I was all for Minor being dealt, but that was dumb on my part.

Yeah, shame on you

 

[Gilbert]

O'Ventebrel should be able to hit the showers now.

Or not. Spoke too soon.

 

[GAVol]

That was awesome. Talk about completely botching a rundown. :lol:

Glad the Cards are playing a rival and not a random team that couldn't care less at this point

 

[GAVol]

Magic number drops to 4.

 

[underscore]

Go Cubs, make your rival suffer at your doing and enjoyment.

Cubs lead 4-1. Soriano just hit a 3 run homer! We goin to the playoffs if that stands!

 

[underscore]

Soriano hit a three-run shot in the top of the eighth to break a 1-1 tie.

Cards had 2 on in the 8th but hit into an inning ending double play. Still 4-1 going into the 9th.

 

[WesternKyVol]

5-1 now.

 

[WesternKyVol]

Boom. Magic number is 3

I can't believe we can thank the New York Mets for helping us get into the playoffs.
