Castro with the big bases loaded single to drive in two.

3-0 Braves.

Huge moment with the botched safety squeeze that was a dumb play from the get go.

Freeman with the hat trick.

But Stripling is out of the game after 3 and 2/3 innings. We chased Alex Wood early last night as well.

Dodgers already in bullpen in 3rd. Nice.

Dodgers get 1 back after a bad Markakis error and Joc Pederson single.

Caught a lucky break with Pederson getting caught stealing or it could have turned into a big inning.

End of the line for Teheran.

5 and 1/3 innings with 1 run so far(runner on first belongs to him)

And the game is tied just like that.

Adrian Gonzalez with a 2 run shot.

Tehran will remain winless in his career against the Dodgers.

You have to feel like shit as a reliever when the batter you're put in to face hits a long ball on the first pitch.

But, couldn't it have been Puig? At least he's on my fantasy team, and I've hated Adrian Gonzalez since he was a Red Sock.

And it remains tied.

Hopefully this is like Sunday's game against the Marlins where it only went to extras because Cosart was undefeated against the Braves and the Dodgers only tied the game because Teheran is winless against the Dodgers and we still win.

Doesn't hurt to be a little superstitious.

But, seriously, we need this game. Kershaw takes the mound tomorrow afternoon.

That's a good sign. A questionable call that didn't go our way and didn't have enough evidence to overturn didn't bite us in the ass.

That wild pitch on the very next pitch had me worried.

My son just text me and said they're about to head home.... in the bottom of the 7th.....in a tie game. Apparently it's some sort of school rule/curfew for field trips (we're about 2 to 2 1/2 hours from Atl). He's not very happy about it.

I wouldn't be happy either. Sounds gay as fuck actually.

We only have 3 homers as a team, and two of them came on opening day.
