Morton Making First Start
Written by Jonathan on June 14, 2008 – 9:17 pmCharlie Morton’s making his first big league start for the Braves tonight as the Braves looks to make it two-in-a-row against the Angels tonight. Maybe the fresh face on the hill will be what we need to help get things moving back in the right direction for the team. I can only hope for the best. Go Braves!

2 on and KJ strikes out . . . Chipper pops out. Frustrating.

it just wouldn’t be the braves if we didn’t leave a couple runners on base.

I laugh because you guys are this MLB pitchers age and I feel like I got to encourage him. He is my nephews’ age, actually 6 months younger. Damn I hate being this age but anyway lol The Braves are playing like I am use to. He did good and I am so proud of him. LET’S GO BRAVES!!!!
