braves rally

went to the game last night vs the marlins. the braves were 5 runs down before we even got to our seats, but they managed to put up 11 runs and win before it was all over. best feeling game ive been to in a while, even though it was fuckin cold for may.
andruw jones had 2 clutch singles that drove in runs and a bad ass catch that should be a web gem and maybe a top play, brian mccann went 3 for 5 with 5 RBI and a home run, and even laroche managed to regain some dignity by getting on base and scoring the winning run. anyone else see his dumb ass get out run to first base on sunday?
i also met this crazy bitch who looked like marla singer from fight club. she was on coke and letting herself fall out of her skirt and shirt all over my buddy. fuckin grilled to the sky, it was hilarious.
braves are starting to look better, if our pitching can get right, we might still have some hope for this season! they need to take as many games as possible from the marlins to try to catch up while the mets plays the cards.
i love baseball season

Yea I am going to Thursdays day game. McCann is leading the NL in batting average with Renteria closely behind him at 6th. He is super hot right now. We got a couple of good guys in the bullpen with Ken Ray ERA 1.42 IP 19.0 SO 12 Whenever I see him pitch he manages to get alot of fly ball outs. But an out is an out.
The other guy thats showing promise is Chad Paronto ERA 1.50 IP 6 SO 8 While his early numbers look good he needs to more IP under his belt to really show he can do the job.
I think the NL East is gonna be a close race.

i just want to point out that last night the Yankees tied their largest comeback in club history. down 9-0 in the 2nd they ended up winning 14-13 on a walk-off 2-run homer by Jorge Posada in the bottom of the 9th.

The Rangers are a team I can really hate. Hank Blalock seems like a piece of shit, Mark Texeira needs a punch in the face SO badly, and Buck Showalter, no matter if he coached the Yankees or not, is a bitch.
Also, I hate any team that has vest uniforms. 
Rangers.. I SPIT ON THEE!
Texeira is such a bitch for the shit he pulled at home plate. Not the charge - but the way he acted afterwards.

Yea that was fucking crazy. I'll bet the Ranger pitchers had their egos bashed in pretty hard in that game.

I didn't watch it but from what I hear that comeback could've been stopped but Damon hit and an infielder screwed it up.

Texeira had at least three plays at first that made him look dumb. The guy's a great hitter, and he'll do great things, but yesterday he looked like an ass.
Posada was the fucking MAN yesterday. He was pumped up. After Texeira railroaded him at home plate and he held on to the ball, he had vengeance in his eyes.
I would NOT be surprised at all if a pitcher hits Texeira today.

Texeira is usually pretty good at first base. At least he is when he plays the White Sox. Posada helped me out big on my fantasy team.
Watched the Cubs get beat 9-0 on Sunday. It was freakin cold and Windy at Wrigley, but I enjoyed watching the Cubbies suffer.
