conquer mets, fall to rox

I was glad to see the Braves take the Mets in both games (one rained out and postponed) this past week. Though I am happy when the Braves beat any team, I am particularly satisfied with a win over the Mets.

I was flipping back and forth between the end of last night's game and last night's episode of the Bachelor (because I am still a girl) and thought we were going to take it home with only one run over the Rockies. I didn't see most of Glavine's successful innings but right when I switched back to the game in the 8th I had to see Matt Holiday hit his 2 run homer to take the lead. It was a crapping ending at Coors Field for Braves fans but hopefully we can pull out a win tonight. Lets hope Jurrjens can bring what he brought the first time he started for us.

Enjoyed the online article about how Kotsay has proved himself to the Braves and Bobby Cox. I have been glad to see him take Andruw Jones' place in center field. Though I wasn't particulary fond of Jones' offsensive playing last season, he has always been a strong defensive player and it was hard to see him go. Thankfully it looks as though Kotsay is holding strong to what Teixeira promised when he suggested that Kotsay take Andruw's place.

Adding to my last entry, I read online that the Braves have created a website for spanish speaking Braves fans, Bravesbeisbol.com. Baseball is just as important to some hispanics as it is to Americans so it is cool to see that they will be able to keep up with news. Maybe I will check out bravesbeisbol.com and put my spanish202 class to practice. Or I'll just stick to English and let Yunel enjoy the site.
