New poll.
Well, when you put it THAT way, I guess our Brandon ain’t so bad.

What happened to Renteria. Was having sex at the time he was injured, LOL. /serious
Priorities
Julio Teheran Fact:
Thus far, there have been three movies made about Julio Teheran’s life — but they’re all unofficial, so the character names have all been changed.
The first one was Ben-Hur, which was about the time that Julio Teheran struck out 15 Philadelphia Phillies with his curveball.
The second one was Dr. No, which was about the time that Julio Teheran struck out 15 Philadelphia Phillies with his curveball.
And the third one was Avatar, which was about the time that Julio Teheran struck out 15 Philadelphia Phillies with his curveball.
As a Vol fan, I have to say, there are some stupid Tennessee fans. But Florida fans wear jorts.
Sorry Rob
*cough*
I’ve gotta’ say that the worst fans anywhere are LSU fans. They invade Tuscaloosa 3 to 4 days before the Bama game and vandalize and pick fights all over campus – and that’s when we play them at Baton Rouge!
@7: It’s worst Hicks.
Verlander got a no-no today. 1BB, 4K.
Faced the minimum because of a double play. Of course, it’s Yunel’s fault.
That’s hilarious, @5.
I’m pretty excited about this one.
Expected and forgiven.
Holy crap, is Teheran 14?
Teheran = slower than Steve Trachsel.
Scoreless first, but it’d be nice if Teheran could get ahead of a hitter now and then.
Pretty good 1st inning, now let’s see if we can get the kid a run or two to work with.
@9, You are far too kind, sir.
I’m tired of the Braves making Kyle Kendrick look like Tim Hudson.
Howie Kendrick is the american Kenshin Kawakami, and we make him look like Nolan Ryan
F U Victorino, again.
Ol’ Burn In Hell strikes again. I’d rather watch ten Yankees games than see Victorino once.
I guess I know how much other teams hated Andruw. I think Dan is about to heat up.
Why do we always have no such trouble with freaking Kendrick?
It’s not like Kendrick is that dominating, all 4 batters hit the ball hard that inning, just not finding holes.
And double FU to Ryan Howard!
That is going to be all they will need tonight.
Nice pitch there to finish off Ibanez. Circle change?
Down and middle. Solo HR only, let’s move on.
The bats really have been pretty good tonight – a lot of hard hit balls, two of which probably would’ve been homers on a warmer night. Good process, bad results. Plenty of time for it to even out.
This game has an April feel to it.
Does anyone remember the year they said on the trivia question? I think it’s Rollins or Uggla, but I wasn’t near a computer when they said it, and I didn’t get the date cutoff.
It was who has the most XBH besides Howard against the Braves since 20XX.
32 – It was ’05 I believe
The Braves have been too aggressive tonight.
Not one of AAG’s best moments…
@30 We hate Pete Orr!!!
The numbers I get for 2005-2010:
54, Ryan Howard
50, Jimmy Rollins
49, Dan Uggla
44, Chase Utley
43, David Wright
42, Carlos Beltran
41, Jose Reyes
36, Ryan Zimmerman
33, Hanley
32, Carlos Delgado
No wonder we wanted Uggla on our team. He gets so many RBIs and hits home runs all the time.
That was too easy. He already has Teheran’s motion pegged. Ouch.
Ah, the other half of our White Flag Corps.
Joe Mather with a double? Insert joke about blind pigs and acorns.
Kyle Kendrick ERA vs. Braves in 2010: 1.35
Overall ERA: 4.73
Only the Braves make Kendrick look good.
Mather!!!
Thanks for not taking the double play, Romero.
It’s not our night methinks.
Bah, oh well.
Tip your cap.
Conrad instead of Hinske at first? Interesting.
Nice one, Martin.
Well, not a bad debut for Julio; I think Beachy’s was about the same level, and look how things have gone for him since.
If only the offense hadn’t taken the night off.
HINSKE IS SO CLUTCH
Well, when you face a rotation like the Phillies’ and a pitcher like Kyle Kendrick, you expect to be shutout every once in a while.
Dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom!
Recapped.
