GDT 8/7/13: Braves (Medlen) @ Walgreens (Zimmerman) 7:05 PM

[Heyward]

Who is this BJ Upton character? Has he been on the team this year?

Only a matter if time before he gets hot.

 

[Heyward]

Sigh...

 

[Heyward]

He's getting in a rhythm now...

 

[zitothebrave]

5 hits and only 1 run.

COME ON!

 

[ChadWC]

He's thrown a lot of pitches so far. He won't last past 5 at this rate.

 

[skidlee]

Glad to see you over here chad

 

[Julio3000]

5 hits and only 1 run.

COME ON!

Only good thing is we're making him work. But we should have multiple runs right now. Medlen better keep dealing.

 

[Heyward]

He's thrown a lot of pitches so far. He won't last past 5 at this rate.

57 through 3.

He wil get past 5, probably 6-7+.

 

[bravesnumberone]

So far, this is the best he's looked all year.

SCORE DAMNIT

 

[Gary82]

Medlen looks sharp tonight. Maybe a perfect game is in the works.

 

[Heyward]

Need more runs.

Aren't going to shut them out.

 

[wheresmykayak]

Boy, if we get 2012 Medlen back these last few months... the playoff picture starts looking a LOT better pitching matchup wise.

I hope it's more Medlen's side session with MacDowell, and less of the Nationals being terrible at scoring runs.

Medlen looks sharp tonight. Maybe a perfect game is in the works.

All of the BABIP luck from CJ is going to BJ.

 

[bravesnumberone]

That's it, BJ. Simmons, I swear...just hit the ball hard, please.

 

[Heyward]

BJ heating up.

Uh oh.

 

[cajunrevenge]

I am so happy we are finally get the good BJ.

 

[Julio3000]

Dare I say . . . BJ is raking?

 

[Gary82]

Somewhere, BJ found himself.
