We Had A Game Yesterday?!
Written by Jonathan on May 24, 2008 – 2:18 pmDespite what everyone has been telling me, I’m pretty sure yesterday was an off day for the Braves. Don’t try to tell me there was a game…..you’re wrong.
The Braves face off against Arizona and Randy Johnson this afternoon. What’s there to worry about? Sure, the last time Johnson threw at Turner Field, he threw a perfect game. And the Diamondbacks are tied for the second best record in baseball……who cares?! Jorge Campillo’s taking the mound for the Braves today after an impressive outing in the second game of the doubleheader against the Mets last week to secure his first win.
The real question in this afternoon is: which Braves team will show up for the game today? The one that dominated the Mets or the batting practice squad that was destroyed in last night’s “non-game” against the Diamondbacks. As far as I’m concerned, it can only get better…….I hope I didn’t just jinx us.

Nice, Travis!! Glad you can watch. It’s really hot at the game today. I’m sweating like crazy.
That’s why I love Gregor. Leadoff triple.

That’s no good! Campillo’s thrown a two-hitter through 4 so far. 1-0 Braves in the bottom of the 4th.

Bennett in to pitch the 5th. Blister problems for Campillo.
Bennett out of the inning in 8 pitches.

Bennett gets on base – first major league hit. They’re keeping that ball.
He’s grinning over at first, having fun being on the bases, looks like.

The upper deck and lower deck are independently trying to start the wave….in opposite directions. Good work folks.

Terrible throw by bennett to second. That could have been an inning ending double play. Those hurt.

Escobar turns a great double play – we may see that on SportsCenter later.

I’ll go ahead and say that that’ll be the defensive play of the game.

1-1 game. That call by the ump cost us that one. C’mon and avoid further damage, Jeff.

There we go – Chipper got on in the bottom of the ninth. Teixeira moved him to second, and then Jeff Francoeur launched a hanging breaking pitch over the left field wall. Walkoff home run!
Braves win!
