Burke sacrificed to the pitcher , 1-3, Biggio to second

 

#3 hitter in the lineup sacrificing when down 2 runs with one out against a rookie pitcher who's already walked 5 guys?

 

Cross Garner off the list of managers to replace Dusty.

 

He was trying to bunt for a hit. He may have been successful if he had been blessed with Neifi-like speed.

Many here aren't able to watch. That's why Fred's play-by-play is so appreciated.

Wow. Len (I believe it was him) just said that the Braves, with 10 runs tonight, have become the first team since the 1930 New York Yankees to score 10+ runs in 5 straight games. The Braves have now scored 61 runs in the last five games and today's game is only in the 5th inning.

 

St. Louis' pitching seems to go in some pretty awful spurts.

The Padres didn't hold the Braves down in the first three games of the stretch either.

Yeah that's true, but I also remember the same Cardinals staff giving up something like 20 and 14 runs in back-to-back games against the Sox a few weeks ago.

DLee is just not clutch. :(

 

His OPS with RISP and 2 outs: .176

 

Andy MacPhail is right.

 

Trade him immediately.

 

DLee for Tony Clark?

 

Clark has a .921 OPS with RISP and 2 outs.

 

It would be controversial, but hitting in clutch situations is the key to winning baseball games.

Currently 13-1........Braves winning in the bottom of the sixth.....Marquis gave up 12 runs in his outing, but I'm not sure how many were earned.

I'd like to punch him in the babymaker.

 

I wouldn't want my hand near it...but that's just me. I'd rather just "accidentally" push him into the Grand Canyon.

Mulder was hurt. At least he has an excuse.
