The story Dave O'Brien just told about seeing Mark Fydrich pitch was somewhat wrong. I went to same game (sat in the bleachers). He said it was 1977 and the bird's 2nd season. It was actually 1976 in his rookie season. He lost to Tiant 2-0 and as mentioned, Yaz hit a 2 run homer into the net. My recollection is that the homer was in the middle innings and not the 8th inning as OB said. The game was in May a few weeks before the whole country knew who Fydrich was. Also, Ron Leflore had a lengthy hitting streak in progress (around 30 games) and doubled to keep it going.

Atlanta heat and the rookie getting used to grind of the big leagues looks like trouble for the phenom. I still have faith in The Kid, though.

I know Strassburg is good but isn't it funny how he's facing a good team tonight and he's only got 1k so far?

Strasburg is getting hit, but double plays are saving him.

Escobar is a horrible SS.

Braves will be shutout through 9, the only way they win is extra innings. Unless Wash scores. They will not get a run of burg^<<^
