7/23 GDT: Dodgers

[Hawk]

There is a God.

 

[Garmel]

Newcomb just can't get the ball over the plate.

 

[CyYoung31]

Why did Thompson's line say pinch hitter?

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Did they just pinch hit for Kershaw? What happened.

 

[chop2chip]

Good news for the Braves, but disappointed not to see a full game from Kershaw. Always a real joy to see pitch.

 

[nsacpi]

stuff looks good...control not so much...missing the target even on strikes

finished a couple of pitches awkwardly...lower body muscle injury is my guess

I hope it's not serious, but I'm not going to complain about not having to face Kershaw in the middle of July with a chance to take the series.

Somebody needs to bring Joe Simpson up to speed on American colloquialisms. Simpson just said that "[Kershaw] is the 'cowbell' of their organization." According to Webster:

cowbell: a bell hung around a cow's neck in order to help locate the animal by the noise it makes.

bell cow: (2nd meaning) leader

Don't think he really meant the former...

 

[nsacpi]

fantastic veteran clutchness from Phillips

 

[Garmel]

I hope we get BP out of this game before he hurts that hamstring even more.

 

[Freshmaker]

Just made it in under the gun and put $100 on the Braves at +305. Let's go fellas! Hold this lead

 

[nsacpi]

Nook effectively wild so far

 

[Enscheff]

Newk still wild, and still not throwing a change to RHers.

Same thing, different day.

 

[The Tariff King]

Newk in Tehearn mode.

 

[CyYoung31]

I hope we score some runs, because Newcomb can't keep pitching like this.

 

[CyYoung31]

Same pitch, same location, two different calls.

 

[Garmel]

This is ridiculous.

 

[CyYoung31]

This is going to get ugly.
