Open Thread and NAHWAL: Brewers at Braves (9/22)

Has any team ever in the history of baseball managed a win after walking a run in? Is there any more significant kiss of death? Even grand slams aren't quite as demoralizing.

At least we got to see Heap get bitchy with the ump. And did anyone else listen to Pete and Skip on the radio? They were doing a pretty good "subtle" running commentary about how awful Andruw is. So that was entertaining. Oh, and then there was that really good game that Huddy almost pitched.

The AJC of course commemorated this latest blow with a Sad Heap picture. What can I say that Sad Heap doesn't more accurately convey?

I'll be at the game today . . . my last one of the season. So far today, the weather has been appropriately gray.

Me Too!
I'll have on a Francoeur blue shirt, and I'll have my wife and 2 kids with me.  We'll be in Section 212, I think.  I'm going to see the minor leaguers.  And the game, of course.
