GDT 4/4 -Zombie Expos 12:10 start

Only complaint I have about Snit today was his choice to go with Sam Freeman in the sixth. It was obvious that Washington would counter with Zimmerman which means that at bat would be the highest leverage of the game.

In that scenario I would have still made a pitching change, but I would have brought in a RHP (Vizcaino), but if you insist on bringing in a LHP, then Minter would have made the most sense.

Luckily Sam Freeman is a good pitcher himself, but it’s moment like that where Snit’s strategic abilities are exposed.

Did Snitckers screw up using Minter last inning?? Or is Minter going to go 2 IP. Threw only 9 pitches in 7th so he might be able to get the 8th out of the way.

Due up in 8th is Herper, Adams, Turner.
 
Walked Harper on a missed 2-2 strike call. Got Adams on FO 8

Got to add Rob Drake to the Bucknor School of Umpiring graduate list.
 
Adams can fly. Scored from 1st on Flaherty DBL off LF wall.

6-2 Braves with Perez batting in Bot 8th. Lines out. Bourjos hitting. WP pitch allows Flaherty to score from 2nd.

7-1 Braves
 
One of those innings from Gott that gets you in a manager’s dog house. Lead off walk, crosses his catcher up, doesn’t cover the plate. Woof
