GDT #50: May 26, 2014 Red Sox (Buchholz) @ Braves (Santana), 1:10pm EST

HAHAHAHAHAHA Ervin doesn't even care to win. What an idiot

Yeah, thats it or they grooved a fastball right in Papi's wheelhouse.

In defense of Erv, should of walked Ortiz.

 

[Heyward]

We pretty much had this game. That's all on Santana and Fredi. Lucky crap for the Red Sox

How's it Fredi's fault?

Always blame Fredi when we lose, how typical.

He shouldn't have let Santana face Ortiz.

 

[Heyward]

Nats lose again. Still not concerned about the Fish.

Long season.

 

[Heyward]

He shouldn't have let Santana face Ortiz.

I dont really disagree with that.

But the game/inning isn't on Fredi.

 

[CyYoung31]

Here at the game and sitting next to Jimmy and his fat family of 5 from Haddock, GA and they are Redsox fans. Hilarious.

Will you please use your military training to strangle the **** out of them?

 

[CyYoung31]

You know, everyone always talks about how fans of some opposing teams show up at our stadium, but there's never anything about how we always show up at everyone else's ballpark.

You must be in my section.

That's not really true. I think it might have been more common in the late 90s when the Braves were in the height of their run and on TBS every night but lots of Braves fans would regularly show up at Marlins games and Astros games for sure. I think with the lack of TBS the Braves fan base isn't as broad as it used to be. That said the Red Sox are one of the giant bandwagon teams in the league along with the Cubs and Yankees.

Whenever I go to Braves games in SF, I always see tons of other Braves fans there.

 

[parkvadawg]

We ever get a start time?

Are you kidding me? There are always tons of Braves fans at every stadium we go to. You can hear them too.

Actually I think Yankees, Dodgers, Cardinals, and Red Sox fall into the crowd of teams followed by parents/grandparents. Baseball wasn't always as expansive as it is now, and some people choose to follow teams their parents go for. I was in the same basic boat growing up.

I just know they make a point to talk about it at a few stadiums. Namely Houston and Miami.

 

[stpeteirish]

[thewupk]

[thewupk]

They have a pretty good following in other stadiums.

Maybe not as good in the 90's but it's pretty good.

 

[USMA76]

I wonder if I could win a footrace to first base against Chris Johnson.

 

[Heyward]

Looks like the offense has coasted, wonderful.
