What was your favorite part of Braves’ sweep?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I’m a little under the weather today, so this will be a short entry. But after the sweep of the Reds this weekend — thanks to Tim Hudson’s gem, solid performances from Jo-Jo Reyes and the bullpen, along with the 25 runs scored — I had to post something.
As Chipper Jones said, the Braves caught the Reds at the right time, and here’s hoping that continues with the Padres (especially since they won’t be seeing Jake Peavy or Greg Maddux).
So what was your favorite part of this weekend’s sweep?
For me, Huddy’s complete-game shutout was the high point on the field, but having Skip Caray back on TV was right up there, too (on Peachtree TV). Two of my favorite Skip moments (quotes may not be exact, but you get the idea):
• “The bases are loaded, and I’ll bet Dusty [Baker] wishes he was.” — Saturday night on TV
• “Pete, you’re a tough guy, surviving all these games you’ve called with me. After only two in the booth with Joe Simpson, I put him in the hospital.” — Sunday, on radio, after it was reported that Joe had an emergency appendectomy Sunday morning.
