[Heyward]

Probably the best offensive lineup we got until KJ is back.

Gonna be a tough one today, Gerritt Cole is as good as any pitcher in baseball.

[jsebe10]

I hope Bethancourt enjoys his day off and getting back to ice cold in the bench. Stupid day games after night games that's not good for a 23 year old to catch in

[thethe]

What a pitch sequence to Mcutch.

[thethe]

Please never trade Simmons.

[jsebe10]

Nobody better on that back hand jump throw. Nobody better

[Braves1976]

Good job by Wood, but having Simmons at short helped there or it could be 2-0 Pirates.

[thethe]

Jace doing Jace things. Good AB resulting in a walk.

[Braves1976]

Welcome back Peterson, hope the hand is okay. Good start walking against a tough pitcher.

[Braves1976]

No appeal but we appealed last night? Look like he tagged Peterson on the back of his calf. Maybe out as it was a great throw, but very close.

[Braves1976]

Maybin is now hitting .291 after today's first inning infield hit.

[VirginiaBrave]

Woody getting it going. Two years from now, Miller, Wood, and Folty the new big three.... Also if we stay in this thing ( and we will), Uribe might be pickup of the year.

[Julio3000]

Uribe always surprises me with his play at 3B.

[jsebe10]

Not good, at least his pitch count got up a little, that was where it hurt not having a legit cleanup hitter.

+1

[chop2chip]

To put a 96 mph fastball between McCutcheon's ribs?

Makes sense to punish Cutch because Cole accidentally hit two of our guys.

[Heyward]

Walking the pitcher isnt good.

[jpx7]

Walking the pitcher isnt good.

And it's been a self-destructive pattern across the Braves staff over the past couple weeks.

[Heyward]

Walking the pitcher isnt good.

Kinda figured that wouldnt end well.

[USMA76]

Makes sense to punish Cutch because Cole accidentally hit two of our guys.

They hit two of our best players, I was just asking teethe if he thought it appropriate that we hit one of theirs.

[cajunrevenge]

There's a brown spot on Alex's hat that he keeps touching while "readjusting" his hat after every pitch.
