[wpa2629]

Bang Zoom nages!

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

Phew.  Damn.  That was interesting. 

[houston-nat]

I created the GDT, and I created the victory mojo:

I call Kurt Suzuki creating the winning run

Bow before me, mortals!!!!!!!!

[Obed_Marsh]

More like the horn with the little rubber ball on the end but a win is a win.

[Lintyfresh85]

Great teams find a way to win regardless of how bad they played.

This is a great team.

[CALSGR8]

Bleacher report says we won!

[sportsfan882]

Thank god that was hit right to Lombo, it was smoked. A terrible pitch.

The walks from the pen have to stop.

[NoShoesNoShirtNoDice]

Great teams find a way to win regardless of how bad they played.

This is a great team.

And bad teams find a way to lose regardless how good they played.

I never knew we had a theme song.  My God, that is dreadful.

[sportsfan882]

Gotta stop sinking down to the competition and rise above it.

Big win, hopefully we play better tomorrow.

[Clever]

I never knew we had a theme song.  My God, that is dreadful.

I found it the other day. It seems fitting for a game like this.

[Smithian]

Yay.

You take ASSCLOWNitis to the next level.

Hey, just got back, haven't watched since the middle of the 7th. Judging by the text updates I got, it looks like Clippard blew another save, is that correct?

[RobDibblesGhost]

I hope the Braves enjoyed watching this game

Yep.  Had trouble throwing strikes.

[PC]

Back to tied for best record in baseball with the Reds.

[CALSGR8]

Explain something real quick.  Saw Bernie come in Defensive.  Then saw Tyler Moore come in.   Was Bernie still in at the time?  I thought Tyler was batting for him but then I have been channel surfing tonigbt.

Yes.

Watch the Top of the 11th.

All-time classic blunder by the Astros.

[Obed_Marsh]

It epitomizes the days when we were racing for the number one pick.  Fortunately they quit trying to find one.

[mmzznnxx]

Yep.  Had trouble throwing strikes.

He's walking a thin line what with Storen looking like he's coming back to form.

That's what a lot of people thought, but Moore actually pinch hit for Storen when Storen's spot came up.  There was a lot of confusion - apparently they announced the wrong thing at the park, and Gameday froze up for a while.

Thanks.  Glad I wasnt the only one.  I think it was the commentary by Bob or Fp that made me think that way.  Glad the winning run is good!

Storen didn't look any better.
