Braves Stay Hot in Philly
Posted on 9 May 2011 by Marcus Young.
Now that's what I'm talking about Bravos! It's one thing to sweep a struggling Brewers team at home, but it's another accomplishment entirely to go into the belly of the beast in Philadelphia and take 2 of 3 from the NL East division leaders in front of 3 raucous sellout crowds. Not to sound like a broken record, but the Braves starting pitchers were once again phenomenal. The much maligned ...

Brewers Win 3rd In Row
Posted on 7 Apr 2011 by Scott Johnston.
As former Reds great Barry Larkin said tonight in regards to the Brewers 3rd straight win, a 4-2 victory over the Braves, “It’s about pitching and it’s about offense.” Yes, I think we call that winning baseball. The Brewers Shawn Marcum provided another strong start today for Milwaukee allowing just two runs in 6 innings, and for the 2nd straight day, the bullpen made it hold up by thro...

The Dez Bryant Saga
Posted on 27 Mar 2011 by David Willow.
In a week where Eugene Lockhart, former Cowboy linebacker, charged with mortgage fraud and DB Brian McCann charged with public intoxication, Dez Bryant has taken center stage being issued a criminal trespassing warning at Dallas' North Park Mall. Bryant and some friends of his were asked by an off-duty police officer working security to pull up their sagging pants to which Bryant replied with p...

2011 MLB Preview: Looking at Jason Heyward and the Atlanta Braves ‘On Paper’
Posted on 23 Feb 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
LAST YEAR- 91-71 The Braves sent long-time manager Bobby Cox out in style with a playoff appearance. Cox spent 25 years in Atlanta winning five pennants and a World Series in 1995. Dan Uggla and Fredi Gonzalez have reunited. Atlanta acquired the power hitting second baseman via trade during the offseason. At 38, Wagner walked away from the game despite a dominant 2010 campaign. ...

Is It Safe To Say Lincecum’s Mechanics Are Okay Now???
Posted on 8 Oct 2010 by Joseph Davis.
Looking back, we’re fortunate Tim Lincecum allowed that leadoff hit to All-Star (stifles laughter) Omar Infante. Took away the drama of the potential no-hitter. I have no doubt that if Timmy had the no-no intact, he wouldn’t have allowed Brian McCann (a genuine All-Star in the past) to hit that double in the 7th. The Braves would have been no-hit, just as the Reds were by the Phillies’ Ro...

Braves Had Zero Room For Error(s) Against Suffocating Lincecum
Posted on 8 Oct 2010 by Mark Reichman.
Tim Lincecum's masterful performance last night completely silenced Atlanta's bats, and no other phase of the game could make up for it – not Derek Lowe's excellent game and certainly not the Braves suspect defense. While the Braves must hope to get on the board against Jonathan Sanchez, the Giants awake this morning with dreams of their pitching carrying them to the World Series. Other...

Different stage, same Byrd
Posted on 14 Jul 2010 by Eddie Kim.
Marlon Byrd showed the world why he deserves to be an all-star. Byrd worked a quality at-bat in the seventh inning by drawing an eight-pitch walk ahead of the bases-clearing double by Atlanta's Brian McCann and also contributed defensively. While the diving effort on New York Yankees' Derek Jeter in the sixth inning was not enough, the Cubs lone representative in the All-Star Game continued to ...

Welcome to Atlanta
Posted on 6 Apr 2010 by Bill Furey.
Heyward rounds the bases after his first major league home run Welcome to Atlanta Jason Heyward! Just moments after catching the ceremonial first pitch from the legendary Hank Aaron, the 20 year old Jason Heyward showed Major League Baseball that he is indeed the real deal by blasting a laser beam home run to right field. I am just going to come out and say it. I have a man crush on the Brave...
