4/27/15 MLB GAME THREAD Braves/Nats: Markakis still at the top - Peterson batting 7th

[Julio3000]

Loves me some KJ.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Love kelly Johnson.

 

[Braves1976]

That blown DP led to two unearned runs.

 

[jimsnores]

KJ having a night.

 

[sturg33]

Nice little game for us tonight... Nats doing all they can to help though

 

[TDlxANDER]

His foot was off the ground and directly at the glove, not base. It was straight up dirty.

We saw different slides then. It was late...which made it look worse than it prob was.

 

[Julio3000]

I thought Tron actually tried to hit the glove. So, yeah, I guess that makes it a dirty slide. It was definitely hard and late.

Should be over now, though.

 

[Oklahomabrave]

KJ gunna net us a top 50 prospect at the deadline.

[Braves1976]

Good AB by Peterson again too, should've walked on four straight though (called strike one was both high and just outside).

It's not dirty because we're playing the Nats.

What can I say, my avatar is Simmons kicking a Nat in the face turning a DP.

 

[dak]

I'd like to see Cornely or Kohn out there in the 8th w/ a 5 run lead.

I mean it's a smart play. Try to knock the ball lose especially when you know your out. Is that dirty? I don't think he was trying to hurt him on purpose. It was against Yunel and the Nats so I don't care either way.

 

[Julio3000]

I'll subscribe to that reasoning.

I think it's all of the above. Tron plays as hard, and as smart, as anyone.

 

[sturg33]

Ah yes, Fredi will burn our second best RP multiple innings in a game firmly in hand, but won't in a tie or 1-run game

 

[Braves1976]

I think it's all of the above. Tron plays as hard, and as smart, as anyone.

Plus tonight's game will give me a new avatar option. This one of him taking out another Nat too, one most Brave fans hated already.

 

[Dalyn]

THAT was maybe my favorite Martin pitch.

 

[Garmel]

Like I said before Martin must have a lot of movement on his pitches. Batters swing at bad pitches and miss balls straight down the middle of the plate.

 

[Braves1976]

I'd hit Harper here and get this party started.
