[jones2510]

[Moylan #58]

Jair can swing the bat too?

Sweet

[McCarroll21]

Jair! Let's go Kelly!

[JCStone7]

I won't diss the toe-tap again :bow:

[jones2510]

[GrandMasterB]

By the way, Pete is here tonight, he's just watching the game and taking the night off.

Yeah, Skip just said something about Pete having laryngitis (I think that's what he said).

[Chopin_Mets]

We could break this one wide open here

[McCarroll21]

:chop: = :chop:

[DRbravesfan29]

where's the chop smiley? i want to chop! *chopchopchop*

you mean this :chop:

[JCStone7]

:clap: Chris!

[Moylan #58]

Haha

[McCarroll21]

Looked a lot like ball one to me. Oh well, fill the bases up for Larry!

[Nasadega]

Ouch that hurts. I don't like seeing a tall friend issuing balks and struggling, but I'll take it against the Braves

[Chopin_Mets]

Yeah, Skip just said something about Pete having laryngitis (I think that's what he said).

So I guess I shouldn't go ask him why he's not calling the game? :D

[JCStone7]

So I hear this Chipper guy is pretty good

[McCarroll21]

They're walking him! Make 'em pay Teix!

[Moylan #58]

booooo

[charpotsss]

This one is better:
http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb145/jcstone07/Braves/Tomahawk.gif

what's the text for this one? i do like that better only because it's slower.

[JCStone7]

And Bud Black picked the Teixeira poison

[JCStone7]

what's the text for this one? i do like that better only because it's slower.

It's in my picture album in my profile

[charpotsss]

think they would've done this without the balk?

[Nasadega]

That will get his low isopb up!
Make em pay Teix!

[Chief Knockahoma]

let's go Mark

[cwg7v]

Come on TEX now's the time to make them pay

[jones2510]

[Mctaggart]

[Chief Knockahoma]

[dogmanx23]

[McCarroll21]

:blah:

It's still fun to see how much fear Chipper strikes in people in even the early innings of games.

[JCStone7]

[McCarroll21]

Mac, let's see a Teix article!
We may. Last night's was sparked by ol' Greeney's thread.

[cwg7v]

For the love of pete! why can't we get giles out!

[Chopin_Mets]

So, if I were to be so bold to suggest again, that teams may pitch around Chipper in certian situations...would all the BN heavy hitters slam me again?

[cjones1999]

C'mon Jair!

[Chief Knockahoma]

Andr-who?

[Mctaggart]

nice play mark!

[McCarroll21]

So, I like this Mark Kotsay guy.

[Moylan #58]

:eek: Kotsay :bow:

[Nasadega]

Andruw wouldn't have gotten it.

[JCStone7]

Andruw wou.... :eek: Kotsay!

[GrandMasterB]

So, if I were to be so bold to suggest again, that teams may pitch around Chipper in certian situations...would all the BN heavy hitters slam me again?

Nah. I just said they should a few pages back and didn't get slammed... yet. :D

[Moylan #58]

Ouch, poor guy

[Chief Knockahoma]

i never understood how Larry wasn't pitched around last year. i mean come on...pitching to Larry versus pitching to Andruw: no contest.

[JCStone7]

Yeah the Rangers certainly :bananahump: on the Adrian Gonzalez-Chris Young trade!

[cjones1999]

Kotsay FTW!

[Chief Knockahoma]

Yeah the Rangers certainly :bananahump: on the Adrian Gonzalez-Chris Young trade!

they humped the banana?

[ATlinVA]

ump is getting murdered!

[jones2510]

K!

[cjones1999]

Yeah the Rangers certainly :bananahump: on the Adrian Gonzalez-Chris Young trade!
Do what?

[JCStone7]

they humped the banana?

Would've hurt a lot less I'm sure :cool:

[Chief Knockahoma]

let's go Jair

[Chief Knockahoma]

wooooooooooooooo!

[JCStone7]

Jair qualifies FTW!! :cool:

[McCarroll21]

I like this Braves team that's been playing since the beginning of May.

[Chopin_Mets]

In the Edmonds's prime, he would have cranked that pitch.

[Chief Knockahoma]

I like this Braves team that's been playing since the beginning of May.

and we'll enjoy it until June 1 rolls around...and then hopefully we'll continue to enjoy as the May Braves play into June!

[JCStone7]

and we'll enjoy it until June 1 rolls around...and then hopefully we'll continue to enjoy as the May Braves play into June!

Can we skip June :angel:

[McCarroll21]

In the Edmonds's prime, he would have cranked that pitch.
He would have dove for any pop up hit to him too.

[Chief Knockahoma]

nice start to the 5th inning.

[JCStone7]

http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb145/jcstone07/Francoeur/gotfrancoeur.jpg

[Chopin_Mets]

He would have dove for any pop up hit to him too.

How else are you suppose to get into SportsCenter "Top Plays"?

[JCStone7]

Damn, just missed it!

[Chief Knockahoma]

let's go Kots! lock up that gold star!

[JCStone7]

Damn just missed it :D

[Nasadega]

http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb145/jcstone07/Francoeur/gotfrancoeur.jpg

Nice. However Jeff made an out so I'm afraid you should never post that pic again for jinx purposes.

[JCStone7]

Nice. However Jeff made an out so I'm afraid you should never post that pic again for jinx purposes.

Superstitious are we?

[Chief Knockahoma]

Superstitious are we?

Ron Gant isn't!

[McCarroll21]

Ron Gant stinks. We need Raul Mondesi in the booth. He'd find a way to get electricity from the KFC across the street and light up the whole ballpark.

[JCStone7]

Ron Gant stinks. We need Raul Mondesi in the booth. He'd find a way to get electricity from the KFC across the street and light up the whole ballpark.

We need Ron Gant and Kent Hrbek is a deathmatch to settle it once and for all!

[Nasadega]

Superstitious are we?
I'm one of the most superstitious guys you'll ever meet. When I play baseball, I use batting gloves in my first at bat, and never use them in my second at bats since the day I lined to pitches to right field that way.

[JCStone7]

7K's for Jair, that's my lucky number! Superstions FTW!

[McCarroll21]

I almost missed a chance to call Khalil Greene an elf.

[Nasadega]

7K's for Jair, that's my lucky number! Superstions FTW!
That's also my number :eek: For obvious reasons (plus Mickey Mantle)

[McCarroll21]

7K's for Jair, that's my lucky number! Superstions FTW!
Lucky number 7, throw some of it #7's way.

[JCStone7]

Lucky number 7, throw some of it #7's way.

:rimshot: Too bad we can't help your 21's since it'll never be worn again :D

Mickey Mantle FTW Nas!

[Rip4144]

JD Drew worn # 7 as a Brave

[McCarroll21]

21's not my lucky number. It was just my number. lol

If it were lucky, I'd have played college basketball because I would have had a better high school career lol

[Chief Knockahoma]

alright Ron, we get it - you like Jo-Jo.

[JCStone7]

21's not my lucky number. It was just my number. lol

If it were lucky, I'd have played college basketball because I would have had a better high school career lol

And I'd be playing RF for the Atlanta Braves :cool:

[Nasadega]

Hi ump that's a strike

[McCarroll21]

Gant is horrible to listen to. He never shuts up.

[McCarroll21]

And I'd be playing RF for the Atlanta Braves :cool:
Wanna try it? Standards aren't too high to hold down that spot... (kidding, just messing with you two Francoeur nuts)

[Nasadega]

Lucky number 7, throw some of it #7's way.
Wofrada is gonna help Frenchy's stats soon
And I'd be playing RF for the Atlanta Braves :cool:
Mmh me too, maybe we could set up a platoon?

[JCStone7]

Wanna try it? Standards aren't too high to hold down that spot... (kidding, just messing with you two Francoeur nuts)

At least I can go to my left on a grounder ;)

[McCarroll21]

Ties a career high in Ks. Does he come back out for 7 or get lifted... perfect chance to see Norton!

[Chief Knockahoma]

Gant is horrible to listen to. He never shuts up.

Ron Gant stinks.

McCarroll doesn't like Ron Gant.

[cwg7v]

Jair's at 101 pitches. Does he go back out for the 7th?

[McCarroll21]

At least I can go to my left on a grounder ;)
At least Kelly's throws go straight lol

[Chief Knockahoma]

perfect chance to see Norton!

http://www.literaryillusions.com/photos/jimnortonmonsterdvd.jpg

[JCStone7]

Jair's at 101 pitches. Does he go back out for the 7th?

We need a no smilie

[JCStone7]

At least Kelly's throws go straight lol

Has to get to the ball first without hurting a knee or an elbow :D

[731BravesFan]

well it's always nice to come home and see this..

[Nasadega]

At least Kelly's throws go straight lol
Not hard when your target is 10 rows behind the dugout :D

[Chief Knockahoma]

let's go Norton

[McCarroll21]

Has to get to the ball first without hurting a knee or an elbow :D
Better than hurting his ankle when going to first on a walk. :)

[Nasadega]

Go new guy!

[JCStone7]

Better than hurting his ankle when going to first on a walk. :)

Hell that chick in softball tore her ACL on a rare HR so a rare walk for Frenchy an ankle injury isn't that bad

[Nasadega]

Norton looks like Captain :canada: this is scaring

[cjones1999]

http://www.literaryillusions.com/photos/jimnortonmonsterdvd.jpg
:lol:

[McCarroll21]

Damn! Norton has to flip over right handed now. I was hoping he'd get a double versus a lefty. :)

[Nasadega]

Now that's strange :confused:
Hey the guy who gave up Frenchy's first homer is up! Let's score a dozen!

[Chopin_Mets]

Glendon rusch in for Cameron

[GrandMasterB]

They're obviously stalling because they know that Norton is the greatest.

[JCStone7]

They're obviously stalling because they know that Norton is the greatest.

He's platooning with the golden boy, you know he's lethal

[GrandMasterB]

He's platooning with the golden boy, you know he's lethal

He's platooning with McCarroll? :confused::D

[jones2510]

lets go norton

[cjones1999]

He's platooning with McCarroll? :confused::D
:rimshot:

[JCStone7]

He's platooning with McCarroll? :confused::D

Braves-Nation could only hope for such a thing :D

[McCarroll21]

Meh! Norton's here to hit lefties.

[Nasadega]

Boog is wrong, a switch hitter can change sides as many times as he wants in an at bat

[Chief Knockahoma]

Norton rocking Lemmer's number

[McCarroll21]

He's platooning with McCarroll? :confused::D
I need a break every now and then. I asked a former member but he threw a liner model at me and I got a headache and gave up.

[McCarroll21]

Norton rocking Lemmer's number
It's Thorman's number! :D

[JCStone7]

Norton rocking Lemmer's number

What no love for the new Captain :canada:

[Chopin_Mets]

I see an Ohman!

[McCarroll21]

And he's not even a switch hitter!

[Chopin_Mets]

Kelly with the hidden ball trick!

[JCStone7]

:lol: Weren't we just talking about Kelly going that way?

[cwg7v]

Final line on Jurrjens: 6 IP 7 H 1 ER 1 BB 8 SO

That's a great start for the young kid

[Moylan #58]

Whats up Kelly? 2 in a row with Giles, thanks for helping my fantasy team.

[Nasadega]

Maybe Norton should play RF, move Frenchy to 2b (he at least fields well) and make Kelly our new batboy

[JCStone7]

Final line on Jurrjens: 6 IP 7 H 1 ER 1 BB 8 SO

That's a great start for the young kid

Speaking like a true Jair's Beer member :beer:

[Nasadega]

[JCStone7]

I donut agree with your statment.

[GrandMasterB]

Sweet! Now, let's just cruise along through the rest of the game with no more runs, k? :)

[Wofrada Ladzmoa]

I got to see MY friend Jeff Frenchwhore today. Where is Red Man?

[Chief Knockahoma]

[JCStone7]

I got to see MY friend Jeff Frenchwhore today. Where is Red Man?

To bad you didn't see Smelly Johnson today eh?

:rimshot:

[GrandMasterB]

Probably collaborating with Method Man on something.

[Wofrada Ladzmoa]

To bad you didn't see Smelly Johnson today eh?

:rimshot:

[JCStone7]

Probably collaborating with Method Man on something.

[McCarroll21]

So... Chipper's 1-for-2 with a homer, 2 RBIs and two walks. Nice night for the OPS bunch.

[Chief Knockahoma]

[Nasadega]

Eff you Teix
McCann better get on so Frenchy faces Ruschshc

[GrandMasterB]

So... Chipper's 1-for-2 with a homer, 2 RBIs and two walks. Nice night for the OPS bunch.

Eh, he's nothing special.

[McCarroll21]

Okay Mac, I expect that Teix article tomorrow!
Can't do it tomorrow or you'll expect one every day and I might as well burn myself out writing recaps.

[Nasadega]

I'm ready to become a Padres fan :mad:

[Chopin_Mets]

Now Pitching for the Bravos...Blaine Boyer

[Nasadega]

Can't do it tomorrow or you'll expect one every day and I might as well burn myself out writing recaps.

Who cares, there's still TJ surgery

[JCStone7]

C'mon GA Surfer Boy!

[McCarroll21]

If those three go into the Hall at the same time, I'm going!

[GrandMasterB]

Put that golden sombrero on, Khalil!

[McCarroll21]

Give him the sombrero Blaine!

[JCStone7]

If those three go into the Hall at the same time, I'm going!

That'd be sweeter than a WS trophy IMO

[McCarroll21]

Give him the sombrero Blaine!
LOL! Perfect!

[Nasadega]

[Nasadega]

How can you say a player is underrated when he just got 4 K's?

[cwg7v]

How can you say a player is underrated when he just got 4 K's?

Because he doesn't have 5 K's?

[vnodnarb]

Could someone give me a quick recap/update on the game?

[JCStone7]

C'mon Manny!

[Chief Knockahoma]

[Alighieriu]

Could someone give me a quick recap/update on the game?

JJ- 6 IP, 8K, 1 ER.
Chipper 2 Run HR
Kotsay Solo HR

That's about it...

[JCStone7]

Could someone give me a quick recap/update on the game?

Jair is solid except against Brian Giles, Chipper is Chipper, Teix is today's Andruw, and Mac really likes Kotsay!

[Chief Knockahoma]

Tony Clark!

[McCarroll21]

Mac really likes Kotsay!Nice. Points for paying attention.

[Chief Knockahoma]

so uh....Manny, stop.

[JCStone7]

At least we got the lead runner

[DRbravesfan29]

Greene strikes out.
Braves put up two in the second.
Chipper homers in the third.
Greene strikes out.
Kotsay homers in the fourth.

Padres score two to cut into the lead and make it a 5-3 game.
Greene strikes out.

[McCarroll21]
