We've had some real good base running this afternoon.

This bullpen pitcher is straight out of Louisville. Let's give him a warm Atlanta welcome. :heh:

The Reds also took Duvall out. Don't understand that move. He's responsible for one of the their two runs in this game.

Solid day for Wisler. He needed a day like this. He's been struggling as of late.

John Gant is mowing down the Mets and we've touched up Harvey a bit.

Looked pretty good so far. Should be able to go atleast 7 as long as something crazy doesn't happen between now and getting the last out.

Eh, close enough. It is just his second career start.

If he keeps getting results, I can definitely live with it, but his delivery drives me crazy.
Seriously, wtf is it with us and getting pitchers with fucked up deliveries?

We've definitely had out share.

Hopefully he never accidentally pitches from the windup with men on base, because I'd have to imagine that would be called a balk every time.

That's 3 in a row. That's officially a winning streak. Keep it going. Nice to see the bats come to life the last few games.

And congrats to John Gant on his first career MLB win. Not gonna lie, I wasn't very optimistic when I saw the pitching matchup.

4 in a row!

Gotta say, I didn't think we would win the first 2 games of the series given we had Gant and Blair going against Harvey and Blair.

The season is already lost, but nice to see them playing well for the moment.

Inciarte was the MVP tonight.

Hustle double, took advantage of a lackadaisical Granderson to take third on a lineout to right, and then scored on a pitch that didn't get that far away from the Mets' catcher to score the go ahead run. And he had a great outfield assist to keep the Braves in the lead in the 9th.

Gant and Blair going against Harvey and Matz.

Sorry, I was typing that with one eye open.
