Name That Brave!

[Jsh1284]

Ok, its time to bring back an old braves.net forum tradition in the form of the game: NAME THAT BRAVE! The rules are simple ... I'll post a picture of a current or former member of the Atlanta Braves. Your job is to guess the player .. and when confirmed correct, you should reply with a new face. It dosent matter how obscure .. but don't make it too hard :)

Let me start it off with an easy one. Everyone should know who this is:

Nope.

[Jsh1284]

Oh my gah... Is that Adam 'disaster' Bernero?

[McCarroll21]

Oh my gah... Is that Adam 'disaster' Bernero?Nope.

Just tell me if I got it.. its not like I said Dan -o-b or somethin. :-DYou're a hell of a lot closer with that one .. ;)

[Jsh1284]

Oh I didnt recognize him without the ugly crooked goatee. Yeah, its Kolb.

[McCarroll21]

Yeah, I can't say his name lol.. It causes serious bouts of trauma.

[vnodnarb]

why does he look happy?

[Jsh1284]

Because he just finished killing three gatorade coolers?

[hotcorner33]

Yep its D** K***. Looks like the title of a snoop dogg song.

Nope. Here's a clue: he was a brave in 2001 only.

[Jsh1284]

Karsay?

It's going to be tough to get an answer from someone who isn't online. :D

[hotcorner33]

Oh. Last time I checked he was.

[Jsh1284]

Steve Reed

Thats the guy.

[hotcorner33]

Yeah baby! Here ya go:

http://images.sportsline.com/u/photos/baseball/mlb/img5484620.jpg

[Nasadega]

Paul Diaz or Matt Byrd ...

[BGarrett7]

That would be Matt Franco.

[hotcorner33]

That would be Matt Franco.

Yes siree.

[Jsh1284]

Hey Hotcorner.. since Garrett didnt post a pic, go ahead and add one of your choice once again 8-)

[hotcorner33]

Hey Hotcorner.. since Garrett didnt post a pic, go ahead and add one of your choice once again 8-)

Okay........

http://www.savannahnow.com/images/061498/braves.jpg

Have at it!

[BGarrett7]

Tony Graffanino, perhaps?

[Chief Knockahoma]

DeRosa?

[BGarrett7]

DeRosa?Nah, couldn't be DeRo. The pic is from some point in '97-99, and I don't believe Mark played the field with Atlanta until the 2000 season.

[Chief Knockahoma]

after doing some research....DeRosa was a Brave from 98 - 2004

[BGarrett7]

after doing some research....DeRosa was a Brave from 98 - 2004While that is in fact true... Look at the walls. It's the plain blue pre-ASG design. Therefore limiting it to sometime before '00, a point in which DeRo had only PH and PR in Atlanta. :)

[Chief Knockahoma]

While that is in fact true... Look at the walls. It's the plain blue pre-ASG design. Therefore limiting it to sometime before '00, a point in which DeRo had only PH and PR in Atlanta. :)

good point Garrett, good point.

[BGarrett7]

Hrm, while Tony G was my first thought... It would also be Giovanola or Mordecai... Interesting... Wasn't there also some other kid we had who played MI in the late '90s? Mallory or something to that effect... Eh, whatever... I'll stick with Graffanino as my choice though.

[Braveheart]

Marty Malloy, I think.

[hotcorner33]

ALL WRONG so far.

[BGarrett7]

I would say Guillen, but there's no way the person in that pic is hispanic... Unless the quality is just that crap.

[hotcorner33]

I would say Guillen, but there's no way the person in that pic is hispanic... Unless the quality is just that crap.

Its not guillen.

[hotcorner33]

Hint: This is a rare picture of him with facial hair.

[BGarrett7]

Walt Weiss?

[hotcorner33]

Walt Weiss?

No.

[BGarrett7]

Then please tell, because after some rather quick investigative work, the story the picture came from, the caption below it, as well as the boxscore from the supposed game all tend to disagree with your claims.

[hotcorner33]

Mike Mordecai

[BGarrett7]

Mike MordecaiNope.

Although he did hit the groundball that ended up being that double play.

Here (http://www.savannahnow.com/stories/061498/SPTbraveswritethru.html) is the story that corresponds to the picture, along with the caption that says it's Guillen turning the double play that was hit into by Mordecai.

To further prove it, here (http://retrosheet.org/boxesetc/B09210ATL1997.htm) is the only game in which Mordecai played the field against the Expos at Turner Field -- in 1997, no less -- a game in which Widger was never forced at second while he was in the game.

[hotcorner33]

Oh. Sorry. I goofed.

Marvin Freeman

That is correct. :D

[vnodnarb]

Marvin Freeman? who is that? must be pre 92?

[Jsh1284]

WTH A Brave I DONT REMEMBER?? Impossible!

J/K after some research, Mr Freeman was part of the reason we had to go to a game seven vs the Pirates in the 92 NLCS.

[vnodnarb]

ah figures, i became a loyal braves fan in 1993

[Jsh1284]

Vnod ... he pitched for us in 93 .. his ERA was around 6.50 ... ya should remember his Reitsma like performances.

I cheated so I won't answer, but I don't think anyone will get that one...

I'll give it a day or two. He wasn't really a brave...

Upload them to tinypic.com. That will insert a random number or whatever and they won't be able to tell from the filename.
