So the Braves are a game over .500 again. This definitely has the makings of 93 pressbox fire turning point game. Luck and clutch hitting are usually present in such games and the Braves had plenty of both even though Chipper fell victim to the dreaded hamstring once more. Of course it was the Expos and I could be much more optimistic if it was a mostly healthy major league lineup that got to carry this over into a prolonged hot streak. It still won’t be “the Braves” until we get a few key guys back in the lineup and send a few guys packing back to Richmond for a while. All the same, I’m very encouraged by this.
J.D.! Was this “the” game?
