Heyward, Braves Beat Mets 9-3

in Braves Game Recaps
Email
PrintJason Heyward had four hits and four RBI for the second time since August 22. He ended up going 4-5 with a home run (16), and his one out was an absolute bullet to center field. The Braves had 14 hits altogether, with all of the top five hitters having at least two hits a piece.
The Braves scored five runs in the first two innings and were in control for almost the entire game. It was tied 2-2 heading into the bottom of the third and was five three heading to the bottom of the sixth. Jair Jurrjens did not pitch well, walking six batters, six hits, and three runs over 5.2 innings pitched. Eric O'Flaherty bailed him out of a jam in the sixth or else his run total would have been a lot worse. Kyle Farnsworth and Billy Wagner pitched scoreless innings in the eighth and ninth respectively.
Oliver Perez made an appearance and promptly gave up a home run to Brian McCann (19). Perez's presence on that team is comical, as is the fact that he has 39 walks in 44 innings. Pat Misch lasted just three innings and Manny Acosta got lit up for three runs in his only inning of work.
This was pretty much a dominant game all around for the Braves, but you would like to see Jair pitching a bit better. His strikeout pitch was working as he punched out eight, but he has pitched poorly with leads in his past two starts. Up next is Mike Minor against Jon Niese tomorrow at 7:10 pm EST.
P.S. Francoeur ended the game with an absolutely atrocious swing.

Did everybody see the tweet about Lowe?
Some soreness in the arm, going to pitch a side session to see if it’s alright.
I wonder (hope?) if this is why we recalled KK? I’d be so down with him taking Lowe’s next start.

Vamanos
Means “lets go” (as in you’re with a group of a friends and want to go somewhere).
Vamos is the word that more appropriately captures the english meaning.
For instance
Vamonos al cine. Lets go to the movie.
Nosotros vamos al cine. We go to the movie.
Yeah
I totally meant that. Original sentence:
“Let’s go Dodgers to the hardware store to buy pickaxes to go slaughter the Phillies.”
I couldn’t translate the hard part, so I did what I knew!

Eh...
I would feel bad if this was a normal player, but after the comments during his Braves tenure, and his ‘shining beacon of hope in the clubhouse’ personality change in NY, it’s hard not to blame the bottle thrower.

It shouldn't matter
I don’t like the guy either, but that’s no reason to throw stuff at him.

Throwing stuff at players on the field is something New York or Philly fans would do. Stay classy Atlanta.
Coming soon: winningugly visits Atlanta, takes dump in royhobbs’ Braves hat.
You're absolutely correct, of course.
Friends and I were at the game at called it ridiculous behavior. The question is, “Was it a Braves fan or Mets fan that threw the bottle?” With Jeff’s recent (or past three seasons’) lack of offensive production and “Play me every day or trade me” attitude, it could conceivably have been once of the many Mets fans in attendance I saw (if they had no batteries at hand). Or one of the group of idiotic Phillies fans in their jerseys that I saw. (WTF?)
Speaking of rival fans in attendance, I was quite depressed to see the low fan attendance for the opening game of a series versus the Mets. Yes, I know it was a Monday night, but, still…

Holy...
Wagner touching 98, 97, 97 in those three fastballs before the slider to Francoeur.
I hate the Phillies so much...
My mistake.
what’s the difference? I mean, he usually sits 95-96, right?
I hate the Phillies so much...
by frozendesert on Aug 31, 2010 12:20 AM EDT up reply actions
“touching” implies hitting a velo that’s usually out of, or at the top of, a pitcher’s range. so a 93-94 MPH fastball pitcher can touch 95, but sits at 93-94
Yeah...
so if he sits at 95-96, then am I not right?
I hate the Phillies so much...
by frozendesert on Aug 31, 2010 12:23 AM EDT up reply actions
hmmm
very subjective. i guess jay212033’s point was that since he was hitting 97-98 several times, it can count as “sitting” for this session/outing, i guess.
it’s not black and white
Ahhh...
Enlightened, am I.
I hate the Phillies so much...
by frozendesert on Aug 31, 2010 12:25 AM EDT up reply actions
If you touch 97 or 98 it's not consistent.
Meaning a pitcher that’s normally 91-92 may touch 95-96 a couple times a game.
No worries at all.

not unscathed
but giving up the run is the right play there
There's an error in the post I believe
You say the Braves scored 5 runs in the first two innings, then say it was tied 2-2 going into the bottom of the 3rd.

Kimbrel went down bc Minor is starting tomorrow.
I realize Martinez wouldn’t be available for a few days, but by sending him down, he won’t be eligible to be on our post season roster unless some pitcher that is on the 25 man tomorrow gets hurt

JJ pitched solid. The walks killed him, but he still limited the damage. I think he is underrated and, I really think JJ can be a #1 starter. He has the stuff and mentality to be one. If he can limit his walks, then he can do something special everytime out.

Yes, but...
He’s the best pitcher in baseball. At least that’s what I think. He’s killer, and is an autowin for the phils.
"Voetbal is pas totaal als je wint"- Coach Adun
"The greatest sin is to spurn the gift"- Coach Alistair
It’s odd that you say that on a night he’s down 3-0, one of those runs a HR to Rod Barajas

their offense is really bad
how can a team lose when the other team only got 3 hits
News Update:
Kuroda spoke with Kawakami before his game tonight, after hearing the Braves recalled KK Kuroda promised his best outing of the season, realizing now that KK would be involved with our run. Then they sang the song “You’ve got a friend in me” by Randy Newman…over the phone in Japanese, it sounded horrible, but they got a good laugh out of it, Kuroda then went out to the mound and did work!

There is no way we can win in the playoffs scoring like that

He ran in like 15 feet, and the ball flew a mile above his head. Fowler scored from 1st, and while trying to go to 3rd, Freddy Sanchez threw a 7 bounce throw to 3rd and it went into the stands. 2-1 Rockies.

Coors Field should be banned
or build another park w/ these dimensions
430 LF
550 CF
430 RF
and mlb let the teams play with 5 Outfielders
dome it up
then put a ton of industrial strength humidifiers inside it….. that could help
ROBOT HEYWARD: TEAM PHILLIES APPEAR TO BE LOSING EVERY GAME IN WHICH TEAM BRAVES LOSE. NEW STRATEGY: START KAWAKAMI, KENSHIN IN REMAINING 35 GAMES
as long as they kill that stupid dinosaur, I’m fine with anything.

sucks
but Coors Field is one of the most beautiful stadiums in the MLB. The way they’ve done it is very classy and conducive to the view…. but the fences are a BIIIIIIIIIIT short, i agree….
It's bigger than most parks...
The air is just thin. Ball travels 9% farther there due to lack of air resistance. Problem is the fence is just 3-4% farther back (compared to Turner, which is big). They do have a short porch in R/CF, just 375 to the gap.

It’s rough to sit through these games and not have someone that can’t hit a Ball?

Yikes...
Stay safe and check back in with us when you can.

Holy Christ...
I’m all for Shadenfreude, but this is a bit ridiculous, fellas.
We watch the scoreboards, too, don’t get me wrong, but the comments are usually limited to:
“HA! [insert Brave’s pitcher who happened to lose] got blown up. LOLBraves.”
“F the Braves.”
“Suck it, Larry.”
…and then we go about our business.
Not hating, just saying that there far too many comments spent fantasizing about (the possibility of) beating us.
Chest thumping’s fine. Shared joy and fandom for your favorite team is fine. Just be careful not to tempt the baseball gods or count your trophies before they’re engraved, because right now Talking Chop is reading like the lady doth protest too much, me thinks.
Cheers, fellas.

Too bad the Braves don’t have the offense to compete and Jason Heyward can only hit singles…

Randy Wolf.. (yes, the Brewers pitcher)
Stole a base last night.. Legitimately too.. No wild throw. Just had a ridiculous jump
Great Game Last night!!!!!
The only thing that bothered me was someone throwing a coke bottle at Frenchy. I’m not a Francoeur fan. I did not like him as a player and I still don’t. But whoever threw a coke bottle at him last night is pretty classless. That’s not how Braves Fans act. I hope they found the guy and put him in jail for the night.

LOLMets and their bad pitching and lousy defense. I would like to see Minor have about 10 K tonight.
Also, I should be able to watch as the Twins/Tigers game will be blacked out here in MN!
