Comments on: Another Brutal One http://section435.com/2008/07/20/another-brutal-one/ An Atlanta Braves blog. From the upper deck at Turner Field.

Then, when you get a glimmer of hope about this team with the way they played Monday, Tuesday comes and the Braves muster one stinking hit against Rick Vandenhurk and the Florida bullpen. Horrid. The sad part is I had a feeling all day yesterday the Braves would go out and get dominated, and they did. Not getting at least one run in that wretched fourth inning summed up this team's season in a nutshell. Brutal at-bat by Frenchy, who needs to be back in the minors (shouldn't have been called up after just three days, when he really needed three weeks at Mississippi). No way to justify swinging at that first pitch when the three hitters before you all walked. He's still a mess at the plate. Alas ... got to find a way to win tonight with Huddy on the bump, then go to Philly and try not to get steamrolled by a team the Braves have lost eight of nine to this season.
