Heyward is just trying to wear down the second basemen of the NL so they are exhausted by the time the playoffs roll around
 
Terrible jump by Justin, but the previous play should've been caught, and this should be a 1-0 game in the bottom of the 2nd.

Agreed. Yea, you won 14 in a row and all, but teams aren't going to be scared. Gotta do more than just show up...Bj, Dan, Gattis,
 
Not good early, it looks like the Braves are just kind of sleep walking through things right now. We don't need to go into a funk now.
 
Atlanta has lost only two home series all year:

3 out of 5 to New York
2 out of 3 to Miami

Let's not make this a trend to lose at home to the lowly (yet young and improving) Fishies.
 
Too bad for Minor that he's going to be charged for 3 earned runs in the third. Really should only be one earned run, but that's the way it goes sometimes.
 
Don't expect the team to keep up its torrid pace. There'll probably be a cool down phase.

After the Braves won 15 in a row in 2000, they went 4-6 in their next 10 games.
After winning 13 in a row in 1992, 5-5
And after starting the year winning 13 in a row in 1982, 4-6
