Braves: Braves @ Phillies - 8/28-31

[BhamToTexas]

Well we wrap up August with a 4 game set at the Phillies this weekend.

Thursday - Quantrill vs Nola
Friday - Elder vs Suarez
Saturday - TBD vs Sanchez
Sunday - Waldrep vs Luzardo

We put up a ton of runs against the Marlins the last 2 days which was fun.

Seeing some positive signs from Albies, hitting .276 in the last 7, .308 last 15, and .273 last 30. Hopefully he can keep that up for the rest of the season.

Waldrep was good again on Tuesday. He didn't get a decision and didn't have the Ks like he has but still only gave up 1 ER. His ERA is 0.90. We will see how he does this weekend against a tough team on the road. It will be a big test.

Aren't we getting Sale activated for the Saturday start?

Looks like it. I had not heard that yet. I kind of wish they would just wait another week until we get back home.

Middle of 7th .

ATL down 15-4 and have allowed 6 HRs including 3 by Schwarber.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

[Cruloc]

Schwarber....21st player to hit 4 HR's in a game.

Go Braves.

He could have......flied out to center in the 2nd.

Isn’t this the SECOND time this year the Braves have let a guy hit 4 homers?

That has to be a 1st

I hate the Phillies

Yep. Eugenio Suarez of the D-backs did it in April this year. D-backs still somehow lost to us.

 

[BhamToTexas]

1 run on 12 hits, are you kidding, is that possible

Elder with another really strong showing.
