7/5/15 GDT: Braves, Miller try to keep the line moving vs. Phillies

[USMA76]

Man, lead off double for Herrera. (or however you spell it)

WAIT, GOT HIM OUT AT THIRD.

He evidently is a graduate of the Johnny Gomes School of Baserunning.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Miller's pitch count is incredibly rough right now.

 

[Heyward]

Miller has 1 inning left unless he has a 5-7 pitch inning.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Good stuff Avilan! It wasn't a great day by miller, but he somehow kept it to no runs. That's an ace!

 

[buck75]

Avilan's sinker/change-up is working

 

[UNCBlue012]

Simmons is back to being hot garbage at the plate.

 

[buck75]

Rangy guy in RF!

Lunging every AB

Remarkably inept day of offense by two bad teams today. Bottom of the 8th a real piece of work.

Someone will win on a walk, sacrifice, wild pitch and an error, or some variation of such.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Good time for Marky Mark Heyward to pop that cherry.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

We probably aint making the playoffs if we're being realistic.

But the team has done alot better than anyone could have asked/hoped.

Why can't we let the results decide that. Instead of just running a white flag up. Way too early to be writing these guys off. Might not be the best Braves team ever but definitely most resilient.

[Heyward]

Not good.

Not much in the bullpen left, had to win it there.

 

[Garmel]

That was terrible.

I thought you said they looked defeated recently

 

[bravesnumberone]

Still a pretty frustrating offense to watch.

 

[jsebe10]

Every knew that glob was going to see three straight sliders there

Carp would have thrown him a fastball.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Of course. Now we're going to give up a run.
