GDT #5, 4/5/ '14: Braves (Teheran) @ Nationals (Strasburg) 7:05 PM EST

[Heyward]

Great AB from Doumit.

 

[Orphan Black]

Pretty stupid that he was getting beat on his off speed stuff, and he kept going to it but it was a joy to watch him get knocked around.

 

[PurpleBrave]

So Purple, about that giant mismatch you were talking about?

Hey I'm not complaining

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Strasburg has 0 earned runs according to FSS.

 

[AUTiger7222]

Stephen Strasburg! The most overrated pitcher in baseball!!! Jordan Zimmermann is the best pitcher on the Nats!

 

[bravesnumberone]

Good job, Andy.

Finally, we're manufacturing runs.

 

[Heyward]

Good job, Simba.

 

[The Tariff King]

6-2 sac fly

Wooooo. Don't have to use Kimbrel hoping.

 

[AUTiger7222]

Sac fly for Simba and it's 6-2 Braves!

 

[AUTiger7222]

Strasburg has 0 earned runs according to FSS.

The two runs he gave up in the 4th inning were unearned because of the Zimmerman error but all 4 runs in the 5th were earned.

 

[AerchAngel]

Strasburg vs this lineup? There hasn't been this big of a mismatch since Ray King faced off vs. a bag of french fries from 5 guys.

You are right.

 

[Heyward]

Situational hitting, not relying on the long-bomb, good job

 

[TDlxANDER]

Simba 2-2 in Sac Fly opportunities on the year?

 

[jpack1]

Love beating up on Strasburg. The Braves always battle him.

 

[Runnin]

Pretty stupid that he was getting beat on his off speed stuff, and he kept going to it but it was a joy to watch him get knocked around.

I agree. Glad he's scared to throw us his FB.

 

[Dalyn]

I demand an OWL gif, RIGHT NOW!!!

MLB.tv delay keeps me away until commercials.

 

[Dalyn]

Great AB from Doumit.

Such a great move to get him.

 

[TURBO]

another leadoff walk.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Damnit, Julio. Given a 4-run lead and then a leadoff walk. Throw strikes.

 

[Heyward]

Leadoff walks, again after some runs
