After the game in D.C. tonight we're taking a train to Philly, I feel like Babe Ruth traveling by train this is awesome.

I'm not used to having the gamethreads up this early. I thought we were supposed to wait until 9:00.

I bet the Gwinnett Braves would have had at least two hits by now.

... batting practice.
Another solo homer makes it 2-0 gNats.

If you can get Heyward out. You got a pretty good chance at throwing a no hitter against us.

David Ross hits a 1-out single in the 8th to break up the no-hitter.
And Cabrera reaches on an error... 1st and 2nd, 1 out, trailing 2-0.
McLouth at the plate, followed by pinch-hitter Jason Heyward.

It amazes me how much the offense relies upon Heyward and how well he's delivered as a 20 year old rookie. He's a piece to build the offense around. Too many players in this lineup need to get their butts in gear or on a plane out of town.

As I said on Twitter, Willie Harris likes to show the Braves what they gave away, doesn't he?  I still like him, even if we lost because of him.

I can honestly say that I have never seen so many quality MLB hitters struggle at the same time.(and by quality I mean honest to goodness major league hitters not superstars)
Glaus, Cabrera, Chipper, McCann, Mclouth....... all hitting under .250? wtf?
Unless we really are this unlucky or everyone is planning on their career worst seasons at the same time. This HAS to stop sooner or later.... One good thing to ponder tho. IF it does break out and these guys start performing like their career avg seasons, we could go from anemic to awesome on offense very quickly.
