I was at the Great American Ballpark on Thursday night.

Man, that place is a launching pad!

You all should have seen the shot that Dunn hit out of there. It was out in a hurry, and over the building in dead away center field. It didn't land ON the building, it CLEARED it.

Glad to see the Braves back on the winning side of things, but then again, it is the Reds!

Big win today...

Bullpen falls apart again, but Andruw bails everybody out with a walk off homer. I think they may be turning the corner.

It's unbelievable that they still have their heads above water with the likes of Kyle Davies, Ramon Colon and Jorge Sosa getting multiple starts.

Did anybody see Johnny Estrada get ejected last night? What in the world did that Umpire say that set Estrada off like that?

The Ump just started barking in Estrada's ear when he knelt down and all of a sudden turned around and ejected Estrada. I really thought Estrada was going to punch the umpire.

The ump had a short fuse on Bobby too. Bobby barely had time to cuss him before the ump had him tossed as well, and they also tossed Mike Hampton, who is on the DL!!

Bobby has had 115 ejections in his career, just 6 behind number two and 16 I think until he becomes the most ejected manager in baseball history!

I heard that last night. That's pretty funny.

I don't think Cox is really all that big a hot head, it's just that he always stands up for his players which is why they love to play for him.

Apparently, the ump was a little out of line too. . .

The incident occurred after a 1-2 pitch to the Marlins' Paul Lo Duca with two out. Estrada, thinking the pitch was an inning-ending called third strike, started toward the dugout before realizing Eddings called it a ball.

Before the next pitch, tempers flared over an apparent exchange of words between Estrada and Eddings. An incensed Estrada arose from his crouch, turned and confronted Eddings.

"I thought he cursed at Johnny," said manager Bobby Cox, who was ejected moments after Estrada was tossed. "I thought he did all the yelling and did a real bad thing. Johnny didn't yell or anything.

"I went in there [after the game] and apologized to Bobby for getting thrown out in the first inning," Estrada said, "but I can't take that. I can't let an umpire abuse me verbally. I hope people understand I wasn't arguing balls and strikes. He was cursing at me, yelling.

"I'm a 29-year-old grown man. I've got three kids at home. I don't care who you are, I'm not letting you talk to me like that."
