GDT #51: May 27, 2014 Red Sox (Lester) @ Braves (Harang), 7:10pm EST

[NYCBrave]

Does anyone actually have any faith the Braves are going to step up and win this thing? It just feels like the usual ho hum. This is excruciating to watch

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Wasn't home, what happened?

Bases loaded with zero outs. Harang is up and should not be swinging the bat. Naturally he hits into a double play and the Jason grounds out to second base.

 

[bravesnumberone]

That was completely on Avilan. You have to get to that ball. It was not hit very hard at all.

 

[jsebe10]

Time for the Carolina Gamecocksucker's LUCKNESS.

 

[rico43]

My one and only thought about this game is that good things happen WHEN YOU PUT THE BALL IN PLAY.

Fire Greg Walker.

 

[UNCBlue012]

That'll be game right there. Team couldn't even hold a lead. This is insane.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Couple of things don't go our way, and we completely crumble.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Losers of 10 straight games. Red Sox came down to Atlanta and shoved their **** down the throats of the Braves.

 

[USMA76]

6-3 and this one's over

 

[holden]

Disaster.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Avilian is not the same pitcher he was last year.

 

[Russ2dollas]

dink and dunk and dunce

 

[Dalyn]

Only one reason Avilan is still in the game for that: Fredi.

I agree. But I have never had a broken bat bearing down at me on the mound.

 

[CyYoung31]

**** the Red Sox. **** their fans.

 

[Tapate50]

Pitching has had some real meltdowns the passed two nights.

No they're playing scared. Boston had been playing awful and was due to come around, but this is ridiculous.

Negative. Avilan crumbles. Bradley Jr hits .170 vs lefties and he gets a cookie to hit

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Also, while the Braves are away, I hope the Turner Field crew have plenty of Lysol to clean up after those stinkin' Sawx fans.

 

[UNCBlue012]

It's sad, but I expected this. I expected them to come out and get beat in some fashion. These bloops are hard to defend. I don't know what they could even do... the Sox won the WS last year, but they're an awful team right now. I mean awful.
