We are definitely on a roll. Good pitching and good hitting are a combo that it tough to beat. However, it is only about 11% of the regular season schedule. Lots bad (and good) can still happen. The pitching has looked especially promising with some youngsters still at Gwinnett if needed.
Yeah man! How about that Michael Soroka! Now if we can just keep Metchie and Williams healthy, we might win 130 games this year.
Ozuna hasn't done much in last 10 days, will have to turn it on to last another 10. 10 days and counting.
Got swept in Truist Park for the first time since May of 2021…..🥴😢
At least the Marlins are coming to town!
Go Braves!
Careful what you wish for ....the Fish have some very good arms and if we average only 3 run per game, it could be trouble.
Spencer Strider throws eight complete shutout innings, carried a no-hitter into the eighth with 13 strikeouts! Only allowed two hits!
Set a Braves all time record for nine consecutive games with nine or more strikeouts….broke John Smoltz’ record of eight games.
Just two more such games to tie Nolan Ryan’s all time MLB record of 11 consecutive games with nine or more strikeouts!
Braves hit five HRs…. Hilliard hit two ( only his second career multi-hit game!) ,……..Riley, Murphy and Rosario all went yard
What a way to break a four game losing streak! Braves win 11-0!
And for kicks, they picked up a half game on those “lousy, stinking Mets” who were off tonight!
Go Braves!
To correct myself….it was Hilliard’s second career multi-HR game, not his second career multi-hit game….
Sorry, Sam…😎
Braves take the first of four in a Max Fried led 4-0, rain-delayed shutout against those “lousy, stinking Mets”!
Strider pitching tonight…..going for Nolan Ryan’s record of 11-games in a row with 9 or more strikeouts a game having 9 in a row right now!
should be a dandy!
Go Braves!
Depends upon the rain gods I believe.
They ain’t getting that game in today.
No reason to waste Strider warming up.
Obviously Ozuna has been reading dawgnation forum and saw my post. Did he do enough in marlins series, 6-13 with 3hr and 5 rbi s to buy himself another 20 days?
lol
baseball is such a funny game. Just about every player is streaky and one can start and stop for no apparent reason. If he can keep his average around .240 and hit a lot of dingers, he'll be worth his salary. Hope he can keep it up for the extra 20 days you've given him.
Agreed!
All I know is that grand slam swing he had sure looked like the old Ozuna….fast and powerful!
Maybe he just likes South Beach! Maybe he has a girl!
But it sure will help the Braves for him to keep it up!
15-3 road record! 22-10 overall! Best road record …. Best overall record in the NL!
Best part……!? Six game lead over those “lousy, stinking Mets!”
Go Braves!
Agree but still with a .153 ba after current hot streak, hopefully he can keep it up for a while longer.
