Julio needs to bring it tonight. The Braves can't possibly keep up these comebacks. At some point, we gotta get some pitchin'. Don't mean to be Debbbie Downer, but we're 2 miracles shy of staring at a sweep by the mutts. I wanna see a solid start from Jules tonight.

Perhaps we start getting in a few of those runners stranded on third with less than two outs and there wouldn't be the need for the dramatic comebacks.

The little things the Braves had been doing so well have suddenly eluded the team. They need to get back to better situational hitting.

Amen to that. The little things the Braves had been doing so well have suddenly eluded the team. They need to get back to better situational hitting. Some regression was in order. We'll still prove to be a good offense with the normal ups and downs, IMO.

***WEATHER UPDATE*** 2:45 PM EDT 30 May 2018
Abundant moisture advection aloft from the SW in the wake of Alberto will bring in some low level clouds so any expected sunshine and associated instability should be limited today, at least until later in the afternoon. Cloudy and muggy conditions initially providing fairly stable air in north central GA early this afternoon should limit most precipitation activity to occasional sprinkles or very light showers but can't rule out isolated development or enhanced Alberto remnant band providing a few showers but I expect most of that activity to stay to the south and west. Later this afternoon expect widely scattered showers and maybe a few isolated thunderstorms accumulating generally less than .25" (and that's a high estimate) unless an isolated heavier shower or thunderstorm were to pass through OR we get significant breaks in clouds that allows enhanced instability to build enough for a few heavier showers and thunderstorms later this afternoon and this evening. It's also possible that outflow and the enhanced instability from dissipating Alberto mesoscale convection bands could redevelop to the SW this afternoon and drift NE enhancing shower activity and rainfall amounts (similar to circumstances that occurred last week). In the unlikely event that happens some possible marginally severe storms could pop up also as severe weather indices in metro area are marginally favorable for severe weather under enhanced solar induced instability and other favorable dynamics. In that case .25"-.5" is possible but mostly BEFORE game time anyways. Just to reiterate, the aforementioned chance of heavy rain and any severe weather appear to be low at this time. HRRR is calling for some scattered heavier showers and thunderstorms but generally over-hypes expected convection in advance. It's provides much more accurate forecast with established radar echoes within a few hours of impact. Even with the HRRR forecast of .5"-1" in the area later today, the evening hours are quiet with very little precipitation showing up on HRRR after 5 PM.
CAPE (convective available potential energy) is moderate in north central GA while CIN (convective inhibition) is low so any process such as enhanced solar surface heating creating instability could lead to a showers and thunderstorms. The LI (lifted index) in north central GA is favorable for enhanced convective activity and thunderstorms are possible given the needed dynamics. Just thought I'd throw in a few atmospheric convective parameters there just in case you hear them sometime you won't be totally clueless. An ironic situation is that low CIN in the morning could lead to heavy afternoon thunderstorms if CAPE is high enough and other indices are favorable. I don't see that today...yet, as the instability needs created before the indices can be evaluated in those terms. CAPE is rising on several severe weather models but has been only marginal to moderate. I'll touch on helicity and lapse rates sometime in a future post.
While PWAT's (precipitable water in a column of air) are high (1.5"-2") QPF's (quantitative precipitation forecast) continue to lag in most models but a few do bring some heavy showers (.25"-.5") into the area so it's not out of the question for evening shower accumulating .25" or a bit more but I see it as an unlikely scenario. Conditions for the game tonight should remain mostly cloudy, although breaks in the clouds are possible as the evening wears on, with just widely scatted showers generally <.1" and mostly before 8-9 PM. IMO, some models are overplaying the precipitation today and especially this evening but I can't rule out a brief shower or heavy shower or thunderstorm at this time but the chances are fairly low for any organized precipitation activity that could cause excessive delays or a postponement. Temps will be in the mid to upper 70's and winds from the SSW 4-8 MPH. Looking ahead, plenty of tropical moisture and clouds will remain in the area throughout the rest of the week and weekend with increased shower and thunderstorm chances, especially Thursday and Friday, and still plenty of chances over the weekend then diminishing chances as we move into next week. Higher instability and slow moving storms could lead to some heavy rainfall as we move later into Thursday and Friday. I'll check in before the game with a real-time update. -PA
GO BRAVES!

From Braves lore....
1894 After going 0-for-6 in the first game of a doubleheader, Beaneater Bob Lowe becomes the first major leaguer to hit four home runs in one game, helping Boston to beat Cincinnati and Elton 'Icebox' Chamberlain, 20-11.
1935 At the Baker Bowl, Babe Ruth of the Boston Braves plays his final major league game, going hitless in a first inning at-bat against the Phillies. On June 2, the former Yankees superstar will announce his retirement from baseball.
1976 The Astros bang out 25 hits, a franchise high, beating the Braves in the nightcap of an Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium twin bill, 16-5. Twenty-three of Houston's safeties are singles, a National League record.
2003 At Shea Stadium, the Braves go deep four times off former teammate Tom Glavine to tie a National League record by hitting 55 home runs in a calendar month. The New York Giants (July, 1947) and the Cardinals (April, 2000) are the other teams to accomplish the feat
And from around MLB.....
1943 With contests played in Rockford (Illinois) and Racine (Wisconsin), the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League begins the first season of its 12-year existence. The original AAGPBL four-team circuit, which also includes the war-production cities of Kenosha (Wisconsin) and South Bend (Indiana), will attract 176,612 baseball enthusiasts during the league's inaugural season.
