Johan Santana vs. Kenshin Kawakami.

Or in the words of Keith Hernandez, Kenshin Kawakawa.

Supposedly Gary Sheffield was a late scratch so he could "clear his mind".

Kawakami escapes a bases-loaded jam but throws 28 pitches in the first inning.

Reid Gorecki in for Garret Anderson in the second inning.

Lower back strain, day-to-day. Sounds like something Yunel would do.

They just showed Boog's mom in the crowd -- her hair is the same color as her son's and her skin looks brand new. ;)

RBI double by Ryan Church and the Braves lead 1-0.

Church has been a doubles machine of late.

Sac fly by Infante scores Church and it's 2-0.

Gorecki had a bit too much adrenalin behind that throw.

Three Ric Flairs over shortstop and it's 2-1, but Infante saves two runs with a great catch.

HR McCANN!
-Dr. Brave-
08-20-2009, 09:10 PM
McCann's really been crushing the ball in this series.

She looked more like Kawakami's mom.

Bases juiced.

And a great DP ends the threat.

Chipper is just ice cold.
-Dr. Brave-

0 for his last 16.

Time to give Billy Wagner the "welcome back" he deserves.
-Dr. Brave-

Billy Wagner replaces Johan Santana, his first game since August 2, 2008.

He begins his audition by striking out Gorecki.

D'oh! Score is now 3-2. Come on Moylan!
Hobbes
08-20-2009, 10:36 PM
Whew! Okay, some insurance runs would be nice.

Just joined the game to see Escobar take a leadoff walk in the 9th.

Bleah, another wasted opportunity.

Time to remember how good you are Soriano.
Hobbes

One more out to go.
Hobbes

Braves win!!

Gotta like beating Johan.

Kenshin keeps plodding along with good outings.

Big win for the Braves! I'm beginning to like Kenshin a lot more than Lowe...now let's sweep the Marlins!

(Yeah, I'm trying to be positive!)
