Game 141

I don’t know how long it has been since I got to write a recap for a Braves win, and this was a quality win at that. Its nice to see the Braves win with quality pitching and just enough hitting… and the pitching came from an unlikely source, a new call up.

The Braves are not game thread: Sept. 4, Nats at Braves

SEC Football predictions, Week Two. Home teams in bold just because. Also, they’re all listed first this week because I think they’re all going to win. What’s a Norfolk State?

Game 140

Well, I guess we couldn’t hope for a miracle two days in a row. Today we were back to our losing ways, decent starting pitching, poor work by the pen. I’ve been following the Braves since the early eighties, I must say this is the most depressed I’ve felt about them.

Braves vs. Marlins 8-28-08

This is my review post on the Braves vs. Marlins game from August 28, 2008. The link to all the pictures will be below the review since there are 85 pictures; it would take too long to include all of them in the post. Some are linked in the post, though. Please continue reading if you wish.

Braves, Marlins Combine for 30.

~JB-Atlanta, GA Josh Anderson got this one started off with a homer and the hits just kept on coming. He finished the night 2-6 with a stolen base and had another good night. But before the smoke had cleared, every visiting starter got a hit in this one as both the Fish and Bravos pounded out [...] Read the rest of this entry »

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea game thread: Sept. 3 Pathetic Braves at Pathetic Marlins

Game 139

Ladies and gentlemen, the impossible has happened. The Atlanta Braves…have won a game. Not only did they win, but they won after giving up the lead three separate times. The game should’ve been a blowout, but it ended up being quite close. Talk about a roller coaster of a game.

Game 138

Never in my life (or at least, what I can recall) have I seen the Braves perform so poorly. On a 4-game losing streak, again, coming off a sweep from the worst team in the Major Leagues, and still not seeming like the Braves that I grew up with. What’s even more depressing, however, is how this team continues to lose one-run games on the road. I can’t even comprehend how this streak has lasted so long.

Game 137

Okay, so this team has seen better days. The Braves lost the series against the Nationals (read: the worst team in the Major Leagues [debatable]) on Sunday afternoon. Not only did they lose, but they got swept. It’s games like these that make me question why the drinking age is 21.

I know what will cheer me up game thread: Sept. 2, Braves at Marlins

Not this game, I can tell you that.

The Bravos Game

Fan post c/o of Todd Thurman in Washington DC. Ah, August baseball. the time of the year when the Braves have already wrapped up the division and have put the scrubs in to get a taste of the show. Wait a minute, something is not right here. Let’s see where the mistakes are. Let’s see…August? [...] Read the rest of this entry »

Make That 29…

The usually reliable Mike Gonzalez who has been a beacon for youth and excellence in an aging bullpen with more holes in it than my grandpa’s underwear, couldn’t get the job done. You’ve got to love his competitive spirit. This photo I found after yesterday’s loss on the Braves’ website shows the anger and frustration [...] Read the rest of this entry »

Sorry for the lack of posts.

Sorry for the lack of posts everyone. Again, I’ve been lazy or busy doing school-related things. Or there’s also the fact that we can’t win a game now it seems. But other than that, I will post my game review of the 28th game vs. the Marlins probably tomorrow or Wednesday. It’s not as in-depth as some of the past reviews I’ve written, but it works. I also got a few autographs and pictures after the game before they left for Washington, and that’s in the post as well.

Nationals Send Braves to Miami with Federal Bootmarks on their Butts

Braves 4 Nationals 8 Questions: How bad do you have to pitch before Bobby will yank you? How bad do you have to be to get swept by the Nationals? When will it end? Well today’s recap is an on the road, mid game post brought to by the trusty iPhone so I won’t be able to do much [...] Read the rest of this entry »

Labor is watching this team play game thread: Sept. 1, Awful, awful team at Marlins
