A Call to Arms: It's the Harvey Day IGT: 6/18/2013, Pt. I

[Vic Sage]

great, a walk and 2 hits. it was essential to leave Harvey in 1 inning too long.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

We need to induce the triple play. ... NOW!!!!

[Edgy MD]

Hi, I'm the tying run. I'll be fucking with you for a bit.

[Edgy MD]

Hi, I'm LaTroy Hawkins. I'll be pitching to him.

And now we do.

Doesn't help matters that the Braves' bench is chock full of Uptons today.

[Zvon]

Damn. Simmons got around on some good high heat. Matts done for the day. GJ Mr. Harvey.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

And we're full of Hawkinses.

[metirish]

Wow, Hawkins blew McCann away with heat....

[Edgy MD]

Well! Good night, Mr. McCann!

McCanned heat, as it were.

[Zvon]

Pen, we need you to do your job here.



Please.

Ks McCann!

[Frayed Knot]

Hawkins Ks McCann - although it doesn't appear that J Upton was ever announced into the game.
Terry might have jumped the gun on the ol' switcheroo

[metirish]

Damn, Schafer knocks in two.

[Edgy MD]

Jordan Schafer, not so cooperative.

Just one of 'em says GameDay.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Reed Johnson is one of those Keith Lockhart types that will surely cost us a win.

[Edgy MD]

They changed their minds.

J Upton in for R Johnson ... and he grounds into a FC
1st & 3rd, two out


And now Rice in to face the LH Heyward

[Zvon]

Very nice play Q.

Thank you.

[Frayed Knot]

Only one hard hit ball this inning (Simmons) but one walk plus two with tricky hops that could only get turned into one out total despite force plays all around.

[metirish]

Braves with another run, all the hits are hard now. 2nd and 3rd now.

[Guest Kong76]

Things are, uh, unraveling here ...

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

In play, run(s)

[Frayed Knot]

Liner off the glove of Duda goes for two-bases and one run.
IW for Freeman ... and I think we'll see Parnell for the attempted four-out save.

[Edgy MD]

Edgy doesn't approve of this.

[Zvon]

Are we gonna waste another nice outing by Harvey? I can't believe this. Come on pen, DO YER JOB!

[Edgy MD]

I'm not caring about Harvey wins, so much as win-wins. I want some.

[TransMonk]

I still believe this is all due to Terry trotting out Harvey for the eighth.

Harvey went from having an excellent line through 7IPs to having 3 ERs through 7+IP. Doh!

[Zvon]

Ohhh, nice try by Byrd!
