[UMFan83]

Awesome OP

[bukie]

The Braves have hit 4 HRs this year.

 

The Cubs have hit 4 HRs this week in 3 games.

 

They also hit 5 HRs last Thursday.

[bukie]

In fairness to the Braves, thus far their schedule has included games against the Nats, Mets, Red Sox, Dodgers and Cardinals.

 

On the other hand, they've gone 1-17 in those games so far.
