It seems early for a rematch, yet here we are, Game 7 of the season and Morton vs. Wheeler again.
We did have some Braves related news in the last few days:
The #Braves last night acquired RHP Edgar Santana from the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for cash considerations and optioned him to the club’s alternate training site.
MLB announces free agent pitcher David Carpenter has received a one-year suspension without pay following his violations of Minor League Baseball’s Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program.
These should be the permanent uniforms.
Still think I like Freeman in the 2 spot better.
Cutch is one of my favorite non-Braves players of the last decade.
Can anyone offer a dependable free way for watching the Braves? The Fox strong-arm efforts left me without a regular feed. I don’t like to pay extortionists. I have a Firestick. Any suggestions?

The announcers explained – Girardi screwed up, he went out to talk to his pitcher but forgot that the pitching coach had already been out so that was the second visit of the inning, meaning the pitcher had to come out.
Yes. We locals are not typically blacked out when we’re on ESPN (even the non-Sunday Night Baseball broadcasts), FS1 or TBS, but we get the alternate game when we’re on MLB Network.
How right you are…when we only have 7 to play with in the ninth it has to be Saint Luke…did you see how happy HE was when it was all over knowing how well he had pitched under such great pressure.
Congratulations to Ehire Adrianza on becoming a U.S. citizen!
First game I get to sit down and watch this season. Let’s see a win!
Yasiel Puig still out there unsigned. Braves liked him last year and he’d sure improve the bench.
These should be the permanent uniforms.

shocked silence on the the topic of the moment…FF PO
FF just wants to give a good hometown discount to the braves by playing terribly this year.
I think the whole lineup except Acuña is under the Mendoza line.
Didn’t really care for the club president coming on the air to whine about the ASG.
OK so the Bally Sports “B” logo totally looks like a dick & balls.
8 — LOL
Charlie scores from first on that 3 times out of 4.
Acuña pimped that one like crazy. Hope he doesn’t get plunked later.
Good gracious, Ronald is dialed in right now.
@1 Absolutely, best to him.
I have to say something about Mr. Acuna. In addition to all the other terms about him that I share there is one other, special, that is his alone…
HE MAKES ME HAPPY!!!!
have you any idea how rare that can be for a grumpled old cynical man.
THANK YOU RONALD
So the Phils just changed an uninjured pitcher in the middle of an at-bat…that a new thing this year? 🤔
Man, when Morton loses the zone he loses it in a hurry. Short leash.
The announcers explained – Girardi screwed up, he went out to talk to his pitcher but forgot that the pitching coach had already been out so that was the second visit of the inning, meaning the pitcher had to come out.
Ronald!!
Alec Bohm can hit but he sure cannot field. Absolutely brutal.
Happy Citizenship, Ehire!!!
ADRIANZA!!
Wow, suddenly our bench is better than the regulars (sans Ronald).
3 PH HR in a week!
Ronald. Lord a’ mercy.
I hate to say it, but the man he replaced, Camargo, would not have done what Adrianza did.
Timothy Miller is always very sharp on the last note for some reason. Otherwise he’s great.
Nate jones had a K on Quinn, but of course, an obvious strike wasn’t called. Robo umps when?
And of course he gets on base.
I love Ronald Acuna and I don’t care who knows it.
@23 Sharp? What does that mean?
About a 1/8 to 1/4 tone high. Braves14 with a good observation.
26 – He’s off pitch too high.
I’m with blazon. Ronald is making me very happy.
@27,28 Thank you.
It might be 8-1, but when you want the 9th inning done right, they know who to bring in.
With these MLB Network games, for y’all in and around Atlanta, are you blacked out?
@32
Yes. We locals are not typically blacked out when we’re on ESPN (even the non-Sunday Night Baseball broadcasts), FS1 or TBS, but we get the alternate game when we’re on MLB Network.
Goodness, I don’t know how much we needed that, but I know I needed that.
@31

Recapped and it is glorious.
