New York Mets vs. Atlanta Braves – Box Score – August 31, 2010 – ESPN. Ah, the Mets. The game stayed scoreless through three, as despite any number of baserunners neither team could get a hit with a runner in scoring position.

Metty Goodness game thread: Aug. 31, Mets at Braves
Now, I’m not saying that Jeffy won’t play in the Atlanta Metropolitan Area next year. He’ll look great in a road uniform in Gwinnett.
Braves 9, Mets 3
New York Mets vs. Atlanta Braves – Box Score – August 30, 2010 – ESPN. It would appear that Jason Heyward is fully recovered from his injuries. Beware. Despite the final score, this one was in doubt most of the way. The Braves took the lead in the first on singles by Infante and Heyward, … Continue reading “Braves 9, Mets 3”
This could be the last time game thread: Aug. 30 Mets at Braves
Do you realize that this could be the very last series that Jeffy plays in Atlanta? I mean, even if anyone wants him to play for them next year, it would probably be the Royals.
Braves 7, Marlins 6
Florida Marlins vs. Atlanta Braves – Box Score – August 29, 2010 – ESPN. What’s the word? Oh, yeah… RESILIENT.

Surprised game thread: August 29, Grifters at Braves

Infante led off the bottom of the first with a double. For a change, this time, Heyward walked and then … Continue reading “Braves 12, Marlins 3”
To Boldly Go Where No Game Thread Has Gone Before: August 28, Marlins at Braves
If you know how my mind works, you know how I’d react upon learning that Reggie Jackson was almost cast as Geordi LaForge on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Yes, it’s the (male) characters on ST:TNG as played by seventies baseball players. Picard: Johnny Bench (bald) Riker: Greg Luzinski (big guy who later grew a … Continue reading “To Boldly Go Where No Game Thread Has Gone Before: August 28, Marlins at Braves”
PURE EVIL 7, Braves 1
Florida Marlins vs. Atlanta Braves – Box Score – August 27, 2010 – ESPN. God, this sucks. Why am I recapping this? Why am I not out enjoying myself? It’s Friday night, for Pete’s sake. It’s not worth it. I’m certainly not going to put a whole lot of effort into this, I’m telling you … Continue reading “PURE EVIL 7, Braves 1”
Imaginary game thread: Aug. 27, PURE EVIL at Braves
Imagine what it would be like if neither of the 1993 expansion teams existed. Isn’t that nice?
