Lindsay Crosby, big baseball guy

Ronald uncorked this throw at 94.6 mph and almost did the dang "RF corner to 3B out he had no business making" thing again

Ronald Acuña Jr: hits a 105.9 mph flyball at a 30° launch angle and 402 feet with an xBA of .870...and it's caught at the wall Braves baseball has never been more back

Matt Olson was running 26.6 feet per second, over a foot per second higher than his season average, and never stopped running as he picked up the first base coach and made the turn at 1st But I admire your INSISTENCE it was Olson's fault despite being utterly, completely wrong

Presented without comment

"Ooh, this ball's pretty well hit to centerfield, misread by Dubón, still going back...Oh man, makes the catch." (Every play Dubón's made tonight, they started the clip by saying that he misread it off the bat)

Can Didier Fuentes even buy Ha-Seong Kim a beer for this, or does he need someone to do it for him?

You're gonna hear "I told you he'd fall apart" from the Bryce Elder haters, but Contreras does a good job of going down to get this slider. León wanted it outside but it was still a very good piece of hitting to go down and get it

Michael Harris II is out of the game - his last play was scoring from second base on a Mauricio Dubón single. Nothing obvious from the high home angle, so maybe this is a precautionary thing? Eli White has checked in to left, with Mauricio Dubón moving to center field

Glad this didn't end up costing the Braves, but Michael's got to get this ball in quicker, if for no other reason than his own safety. (Spencer's clearly pissed off already and could always decide to just murder someone in the dugout.)

Chris Rembert just made the damndest play I've ever seen to field a bunt that was thrown into right field and made a jump throw to nail the runner at second. That's a home ballpark special, reading the throw off the brick wall perfectly like that. Whew

Have seen questions about why this wasn't an automatic out on Curtis Mead for running out of the basepath Rule 5.09(b)(1): "A runner's base path is established when the tag attempt occurs and is a straight line from the runner to the base he is attempting to reach safely."

THAT'S Eli White's first career play at first base? Give that man the utility Gold Glove already

lol Nick Allen is a wizard and I'm here for it. I'm not a jersey guy, but Allen's tempting me

Eli White did everything he could to get Carrasco out of the inning, but Nimmo got in just ahead of the tag Also, the MLB research tool just refuses to give us velos on these outfield throws. First the Acuña throw versus the Yankees, now this

Drake Baldwin had a 1.97 pop time and a virtually perfect throw on this caught stealing of Xavier Edwards

I, Lindsay Crosbyhousen, was so desperate for the Atlanta Braves to be free of their offensive curse in the month of June that I paid real human monies on Cameo to WWE Superstar, Legend, Hall of Famer, &amp; Employee of the Month Danhausen to uncurse the Atlanta Braves.

Auburn had more fans in their (raucous) ballpark at 1 AM after the gates opened 12 hours earlier It's almost like the folks who say that 'Alabama fans love Alabama football while Auburn fans love Auburn' are on to something

Lucky break for Atlanta that Brandon Marsh apparently decided to play outfield for the first time in his life on this exact play

The Rockies broadcast was NOT happy with this baserunning error by Troy Johnston "Johnston is...oh my goodness1" "Can't have that down by five."

Jarred Kelenic, my man, you can't pimp a single off the wall and get thrown out at second base when you're hitting .174

Here's the "movement" from Matt Olson (Come get your boy, Major League Baseball Umpires Association)

Once again, the exceptional glove work of shortstop CJ Abrams seals a win for the Washington Nationals (What great baserunning by Tromp to score from second on this)

Ronald Acuña Jr. pulled up just after being thrown out at first and limped to the dugout with a trainer Maybe the last step or two before the bag? Looked like he was trying to keep weight off the left leg there

Here is Ozzie's 1st inning home run, as called by the opposing TV broadcast (Hoping I get to run this bit back 300 times)

Jorge Mateo hit an absurdly elite 31.1 ft/sec on this infield single, but also had a LONG convo with the Braves trainers after making a slow walk back to first He's staying in the game for now

106.1 off the bat and off the very top of the wall, but because we haven't painted a yellow line on the top of the wall it's only a double. Man, literally nothing is going right for Atlanta in the 2025 season

Nothing to see here, just a routine 6-3 putout from the exceptional Phillies defense

Stop me if you've heard this before, but Tony Vitello got thrown out of a baseball game today. Went and yelled at every single umpire and then flipped a dugout chair at the end of his hissy fit

Ronald scored from first base on a single to center. He's getting held by Fredi Gonzalez at third and just "nopes" right through it. 29.8 ft/sec sprint speed and a First-to-Home time of just 10.03 seconds, his fastest time of the season

Ronald went home-to-third in 11.55 seconds, a 99th percentile mark this season. 29.2 feet per second on this triple and the Braves are threatening again

Ronald catches this ball with momentum coming in and his throw to home? Casual 97.3 mph (would have been nice to see it) If I was Isaac Collins, I'd have stayed at third base, too

Matt Olson was called out for interference here, as the catcher hopped up out of his crouch to go get the foul ball and ran into Olson. Snit got run in arguing this - looks a bit like Davis played it up to get the call

Mike Yastrzemski flashing the glove early as he puts together a Gold Glove resume in left field (Yep, I'm going to make fun of our guys too)

A strike away from punching out the side to...whatever this is from Mike Yastrzemski extends the Detroit lead to 4-2
