2024 Major League Baseball season (Page 85 of 91)

Braves played a wild one in Atlanta yesterday vs the Marlins, down 5 runs in the 9th they scored 6 to win it. Now maybe that will break our home game curse once and for all. Braves have been very good on the road, off to Philly tonight

A glimmer of life. 2 games over .500 for May.
It’s a start.

depressing start to the day as I get up to watch MLB Quick Pitch and see that Julio didn't have his best stuff at SD last night. Your Padres jumped on him early and often ........... oh well, we'll try again tonight

much less indigestion this morning as I see Newcomb get it done for ATL on the bump, and we broke out some bats. OK Rick, we have the rubber game this afternoon, 12:40 your time first pitch ................. wish I could watch but my work is what it is

You got the bullpen platoon start today Tres. Our #4 starter went on the dl so with no choice Andy Green sent in his string of 2 inning guys and the boys were up to the task. A well pitched game on both sides with our closer Hand (great name!) whiffing 5 in the last 2 innings with his nasty slider. He reminds me of Hoffman-usually nails. Best homestand of the season so far, winning each series and getting the Bravos 2/3 was icing! Good luck for your team on the rest of the road trip. They’re good!

Ps, did you see the beer cup catch of the foul by that gal yesterday? It was a feature replay all over. I’m in love. Cooly snags it on the fly in her lap without spilling the beer, stands and salutes the crowd with the raised cup, and takes a chug-a-lug with the ball in the cup! My kind of lady and a good looker to boot. Classic.

OK Rick, we have the series rematch this time at Suntrust starting Thursday and going through Sunday, play four y'all. We get the Mets at home for two tomorrow and Wed, looking forward to not having that late west coast start time. We didn't do you any favors at the Doyers, lost 2 of 3 including our best pitcher Newcomb who lost yesterday

Sanchez made a great start last night and the Bravos managed just enough runs, but I like the look of this Padres team ........ on to game 2 tonight, McCarthy vs Richard on the mound. Richard killed us last time at SD, he is tough despite the mediocre ERA

Nice night by Galvis. 5 for 5 and on fire! Richards didn’t get much support early while they booted the ball around, and no favors from Joe West’s crew either, but hung tough long enough for his mates to make up for it with some timely hitting.  Our excellent BP closed it out.
Rubber match coming so good luck.
Play ball!
Rick
Edit, why your guys are 1st and mine are last. Good games other than the expanded zones and weird calls.
