Albies with another hit.

And here comes Mallex, time to hit for the cycle!

Holy moly, even Albies hits a HR! He didn't hit any last year.

Did you drop a holy moly in a 7 year old thread?

Were you still on BO when that really creepy LoveItCards guy arrived? Holy Moly was his trademark and now I have that stupid catch phrase engraved into my mind.

Those were my end days when he first arrived. I think he is a member here too.

Oh no....nobody is safe with that guy around. Well, at least anybody who is under 18...

You are about to find out how they roll in S.C., enjoy.

Yup, they keep telling me.

Maybe I should invest my money into his Holy Moly enterprise. I have a feeling it's just about to take off...

You missed that jump off.

Note: this seven year old thread now has more of your post in it than any before you. Stop slacking here and get to work.

Lucas Sims 1 IP 0 ER 0 H 1 BB 0 SO

Not bad...

Sims Strikeout #1

 

[death2redemptions]

And Sims is starting to fall apart in the 2nd inning. Just walked his 3rd batter. So many command issues with these young Braves pitchers during ST.

Appreciate the Spring Training live blogging!

I grew up in AZ and this was always my favorite time of year.

 

[death2redemptions]

Sims...Blair...Newcomb have all had terrible 1st games but it's just the first week of ST so I'm not terribly worried. The only thing that is just a tad worrisome is the control issues.

Yeah, this will be my last year living in AZ so my last chance to get to some ST games. I had planned to go to a couple games this week but a family emergency has sidelined those plans. I'll still make sure to see at least 2-3 games this Spring. Unfortunately I won't be able to watch any Braves ST games because they've always played in Florida but since I'm moving to South Carolina I will only be a few hours away from the stadium so I'll get more opportunities to see some major league games.

I'm also a D-Backs fan because I've lived here ever since the D-Backs became a team so I look forward to watching some ST and major league games before I move in June.

Pretty incredible, Braves were down 3-9 but they have just taken the lead back 11-9 in the 9th inning. Didn't see that coming.

However a lot of it is due to the awful command from Phillies pitchers and terrible defense.
