Yes, it was a first and third type double steal and the throw to second was errant. Dubon looked to be going anyway so I think they gave him credit for the steal. Not at all sure he would have made it safely if the throw to 2nd was good enough to be thrown back home. Still, good enough for the Braves to get that run. Chalk up another series win.
Guys on radio were saying the Pittsburgh catcher has the fastest release in Baseball from behind the plate and a rocket arm. With only one problem. He cant hit the broad side of a barn back there. Call it Dale Murphy disease. Old school Braves fans will get that reference.
They were suggesting it was kind of a planned play against this particular catcher.
If it was planned, it was a great plan for sure. Would not be surprised if Walt planned that. He's appearing to be a genius with the moves he makes.
my dad used to joke how they said Dale Murphy would make a great catcher if anyone tried to steal centerfield
Yep, definitely!
That move to centerfield was the best thing ever for Dale!
Two MVPs! 398 home runs! Numerous gold gloves…..should already be in the hall of fame!
A travesty for sure!
He was my oldest daughter’s favorite player when she was just two years old! She would sing out “Hit the ball Murphy poopy-doop! ” And just laugh and laugh! Great memories!
SWEEP! First one at home this season!!
How‘bout them Braves!!
First career save for Fuentes!
Outstanding!
That kid is showing me more and more each time I see him. This was a high leverage situation with the tying and lead runs in scoring position. Always nice to see Mike Harris with a key hit in a pinch hit role.
Harris 3 run bases loaded clearing double was the only offense of the day! Absolutely the player of the game!
How sweet it was! And a pinch hit, no less!!
Go Braves! On to Chicago!
And then those lousy stinkin Mets!
And the best thing about this sweep!?
All the other NL East teams won today…..AND GAINED NOTHING!!!
Go Braves!
It’s funny to me to think about Walt sitting on the bench behind Snitker, what was going through Walt's head.
Last year, probably W.T.F.? Is he awake over there?
If the top dawg in DC can take naps, why not Snit?
Weiss is the best to my recollection at handling the bullpen. Much better than Snitker.
Hard to criticize AA on his signings, 20 million to Kim, will be designated for assignment by August.
Only blessing not my money.
