All that bellyaching how Tony would NEVER jeopardize a pitcher’s health and throw him back out there in Game 2 on 1 day of rest after only throwing 23 pitches. Pitched 2 clutch innings and got the win. I guess Tony and I have a similar line of thinking.

Yep. I didn’t like this weekend’s overall results, but 1-2 is better than 0-3.

Broadcasts talked about our empty bullpen, too. IF that is true, I think we almost had to throw him an inning or two, it might as well have been when it mattered.

Yep, there is a possibility we don’t win Game 2 if he wasn’t pitching.

The thing that kills me is the Auburn player didn’t get ejected. Dude was running his mouth all the way around the bases and whenever he gets picked off being a dumbass he wants to pitch a fit. These umps are awful at their job. The whole lot of them.

Any time there are two games postponed due to weather it is going to kill your pen. It’s all hands on deck in that situation. Big props to Doyle for wanting the ball and helping his team to a win.

Lots of big series next weekend for seeding. We are now tied with Vanderbilt for 5th. Georgia jumped us. And we only have a 1 game lead over 7-9 teams. Next two weeks are as big as it gets. We will find out if this team wants to host a regional or not.

If Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi State, and A&M all are able to win 2 or 3 games down the stretch the SEC might get 14 teams into the NCAAT field. I don’t agree with it but that’s where we are.

IF we host a Regional individuals will be griping about ticket prices. Don't believe me check out the thread about the Hornets Nest. Bunch of broke college educated individuals.😂😂😂

Ticket prices have been out of hand imo but I don’t think you can complain about postseason prices. Those tickets really are premium since those are win or go home games. It’s the regular season price gouging that irks me.

Somebody's gotta pay for those renovations....dont mind the ticket gouging AD Danny White is a business man. Strike while the iron is hot, if individuals want $7 dollar tickets go back to 2012....

We looked terrible in the rubber game w/Auburn. Couldn't hit their freshman pitcher.

Riley with another homer...4-0 Braves top 4th. Roberts must've got my E-mail today, I told him to let the Braves win one that I was on a message board full of Braves fans and getting tired of their crying..

Dodgers will still find a way to win. No lead is safe with the Braves bullpen and Brian Snitker pulling all the strings.
