How does she say his name? Snicker or something? Maybe she’s got candy bars on her mind rather than baseball

You know the commercials, not feeling yourself grab a Snickers. I don't think there are enough Snickers to make her not suck as an announcer

She’s no Beth Mowins though

Only about 6 more weeks till we get to hear her butcher Saturday afternoon college football

Easy for you to say, she doesn’t usually get any Bama games. She seems to always get 11am Big 10 games

We had her once last year, my dad lost most of his hearing in the army and he said he’s never been so happy to not be able to hear well...

Have you seen our schedule this year? We’re playing high schools teams most of this season, our schedule blows. We’ll probably get her 2 or 3 times.

The whole ESPN crew sucks, They can't even get things like names of players and the score of the game right, and they'll break away from the game in a big spot to show highlights from a Yankees game that ended hours before.

Their "A" crew sucks (the one that called this game). I actually think their crew with Tim Kirkjian, Eduardo Perez and sometimes Rick Sutcliffe is pretty good. Actually, most of ESPN's baseball commentators are pretty good except their A crew. Why the hell they made them their main crew despite being that bad is beyond me. They're wasting money with A-rod

ESPN's baseball coverage isn't all that surprising. ESPN doesn't get any post-season games (with the exception of one wild card game) and they're infamous for providing mediocre coverage for sports that they don't own the post-season rights for

really happy with Gausman's performance. He came in and completely dominated one of the hottest teams in baseball

Gausman pitching hurt earlier this year makes a lot more sense than him turning into a complete bum overnight. He had a 2.87 ERA with 10 starts for the Braves last year

Just for the haters

COCKS!

I feel empty on off days.

We’re gonna have more than most to close out the season. We’ve played more games than most teams

 

[Chewbaccer]

But I’m glad the Nats aren’t off. Those half games in the standings really fuck with my OCD

 

[Hitman Hart]

Nationals are still closer to the Phillies in the standings than they are to the Braves

I had to explain that to my step mom this past weekend. She doesn't watch baseball unless my family is visiting. She is kind enough to let us watch the Braves each and every time we visit though.

Anyway, that stat came up and showed the Braves 5.5 games up and she asked how the hell can you have a half game.

It only took about 15 minutes to clarify.

Did she make you a sandwich after you explained it to her?

So much for that. Colorado @ Washington is PPD.

They might do a double header and make it up. We also have another day off after playing 2 vs Kansas City so could get evened up that day unless Washington is off too.

Got my tix today for 2 games in Sept vs. the Giants!!
