Let's hope the rain is gone for good for us. I need some baseball!

…..And it's a very shitty day here at Turner Field. It's spitting rain but thankfully not very cold. Hopefully the BlackBerry makes it through the game. The Braves are about to take the field.

Castillo grounds out to Hudson, 2 outs.
The rain's tapering off.

you at the game JT?

I'm at home watching but I hate games on Fox.

1-2-3 to star the game by hudson!

Yeah, we're here at the game JB, glad to have you along.

Escobar strikes out. Kotsay and Chipper with back-to-back singles. Tex at the plate.

y'all are lucky you're at the game. It's on Fox today so we have to listen to Tim McCarver and Joe Buck.

In case you're wondering how I feel about them, just check out my last post on my site.

McCann knocks in the RBI and we're on the board.

I'll be at the game tomorrow afternoon.

We'll be here too JB. Hopefully for slightly better weather…

Full count to Francoeur….strikes out swinging, stranding two.

Braves lead 1-0.

That would qualify for "Andruw Would've Swung at That" if you're counting, Jonathan

I'm surprised Chipper didn't make the DL after that play

By: Jonathan

Jonathan — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:35:14 +0000

He looks okay, JB. Hopefully he's fine after the hit.

Schneider strikes out to end the inning. 1-1 heading to the bottom of the second.

Jonathan where's your "Andruw…Swung at that" counter?

By: Jonathan

Jonathan — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:35:14 +0000

Diaz flies out to right to start the inning.

I agree, Travis, hard to tell in the wet conditions how some of these plays are going to go.

Prado gets jammed but lifts it over the second baseman's head for a single.

Hudson bunts the third strike foul. Not sure why we kept the bunt on there.

We decided it was too much to keep up with, JB….and with how it's going, we may have to take down the othe counter. Kotsya's doing well.

I'm surprised I've gone two whole days w/o really talking about Hampton….

I guess I'm saving it for a really good post tomorrow about his myriad of mishaps.

By: Jonathan

Jonathan — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:35:14 +0000

I think we're all just over it at this point, JB.

Long at bat to Beltran here….line out to Kotsay…counter stays at zero.

By: Jonathan

Jonathan — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:35:14 +0000

I'd love to see it…we're not a big CG club however. Hud's thrown 69 through 4, so not too likely I don't think.

The misty rain is falling again here at Turner.

By: JBinATL

JBinATL — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:35:14 +0000

I doubt it too I just miss the days of CG's in general. It used to be the standard.

How are the thumbs holding up at the Ted, Jonathan?

JBinATL — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:35:14 +0000

Chipper!

3-3!

Now if Tex can get a stinkin' hit

By: Jonathan

Jonathan — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 00:35:14 +0000

They were doing a little better before the rain started falling again. Overall, it's good to be at a game.

Chipper singles, 3-3 on the day…

Tex with an RBI single! Finally. We need him to pick it up.

DP and don't bobble it here
