    4/14/17 Home Opener GDT



    Teheran gets the ball for our home opener with Hank Aaron throwing out the 1st pitch.

    Expecting pictures from the people attending the game!

    Just a question, I know Hanks old, but is it that hard to still throw a baseball? Seems like you would always be able to do it relatively well

    Guy has to have help walking - damn. Cut him a break!
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Sav and sturg have probably given some descriptions (and others who went to the Saturday/Sunday games), so I won't try to expound on them other than to say the pictures everyone's seen don't do it justice. The entire place is an experience everyone should have soon. I'm not kidding when I say that I can't imagine going to a game in any other park comes close to what a trip to SunTrust Park is. I know it's still a sore spot for a lot of people, but the partnership with Cobb County delivered EXACTLY what the city of Atlanta promised the Braves they were going to turn the area around The Ted into all those years ago - but didn't.

    It really is a place that reflects what a franchise that was able to deliver an amazing accomplishment like winning 14 straight Division Titles SHOULD be able to give its fans - a place to go see their favorite team play that I promise you those fans will NEVER forget.

    It is an incredible place. It is absolutely true that you can't appreciate it until you go.

    The Battery alone would be an incredible place even if the stadium didn't exist.

    Sam Holbrooke is umping left field third base. When we flied out to end the inning I shouted Infield Fly and then others did it with me and I said "Holbrooke you killed Chipper's last season!" He turned and looked at our section.
