Back home in Atlanta we had a great one going as Tommy Hanson looked to help us right the ship after the debacle out in Denver. Hanson after being "Justin Verlander" or Fernando Valenzuela with the 80s mullet good last year, has seemingly come back down to earth.
But not today.. he was the GOOD Tommy Hanson.
Unfortunately for him, our offense is still sitting on ice cubes. Sometimes your ballclub hits these lulls where everything is going right, and then it just hit the fan for a few weeks. And then there are those times where you go months on end with alternating streaks of never being good all at the same time. We're fighting hard to not let it effect us.. but these games are getting difficult as hell down the backside of the month of June.
So lets set the stage, we've left countless amount of men on base. Hanson kept us in it as long as he could. We get to the 9th. No grapes. Heyward strikes out looking in the 10th. The 12th, Freeman and Uggla whiff. The 14th? We get down but scrap a run in the bottom frame. It was like a well played tennis match, except you can take out the adjective "well played".
Yes sir Dan Uggla goes deep for the game winner. his second of the game. What have we told you time and time again. Left hand pitcher on the mound. Dan Ug at the plate?
DON'T THROW HIM A STRIKE BECAUSE HE GONE KILL IT!
