I'm very impressed with Eric Young. Love what he's doing with the young guys. That was a good feature. The rain delay had some benefit. I also liked the "by the rules" segment they did. The "check swing" part was good.

Rain has stopped here for now. Bout to try heading into the ball park after drinking $2.50 mimosas for the past hour.

Literally posted that and looked up and it's raining again. What a day, what a day.

Has anyone mentioned on these broadcasts about Julio tinkering around with a cutter? Someone told me about that a while back, but I never did hear anyone talk about it.....

I understand none of that but it sounds like we may play ball soon. Thanks The sooner the better as conditions worsen after 5 PM and especially after 6 PM.

Has anyone mentioned on these broadcasts about Julio tinkering around with a slider? Someone told me about that a while back, but I never did hear anyone talk about it..... I remember one of the announcer crew talking about it that first game where he was really solid. They said he really worked on it in the off-season and was building the confidence to use it more.

It's officially postponed now. Makeup on May 28th. Too bad. I think we could have got it in over the next 3 hours before conditions worsen. Marietta/Smyrna HRRR (17Z run) indicating .1" precip through 5PM and another .1" between 5 and 6 PM. .2-.3" is expected 30-40 miles to the west. RAP (17Z run) 3 hr (3-6 PM) total is only indicating about .1" but .3-.4" is just slightly west through Douglassville and Dallas.

I actually understand some of what PA says. I took 3 classes in the physical geography area of study when I was at university.

I was told he was working on it with......ugh...Annibal maybe??? I forget who it was. Maybe I'll have to turn up the sound on these broadcasts and get the Braves feed instead of everyone else's on MLB TV......that would be a huge sacrifice to make since I can't stand our crew.

All I know is that the Weather Channel had 100% pretty much all day in Marietta.
