Around SBN: Dallas Cowboys Roster: Who'll Be This Year's Surprise Cut?

Open Thread 4/11 - Braves at Giants #2

I can't believe we're getting this one in today. BMac started us off with a 2-run HR. Marteeen Prado is a man on a mission. And the Dragon Slayer looks good so far.

2-0 Braves, top of the 3rd.

Discuss.

Disagree. The Giants’ runs came from our errors. We’d be tied and still in the game if those runs are out of the picture. I don’t think “tied” is being shut down.

Rowand’s interference on McCann, the errant throw hitting Sandoval (although he’s large enough that I’m not sure where Heyward could’ve thrown it and missed him…), that time a few years ago that Gryboski allowed a walk-off walk. Okay, need to stop, it’s getting too depressing.
