Atlanta Braves Clippings Wednesday, June 3, 2015 Braves.Com Atlanta Braves Clippings Wednesday, June 3, 2015 Braves.com Braves rally, only to fall to D-backs on late HR By Barry M. Bloom and Jake Rill / MLB.com | 2:10 AM ET PHOENIX -- A.J. Pollock hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning to lift the D-backs to a 7-6 win over the Braves on Tuesday night at Chase Field. Pollock's opposite-field blast came on a 1-0 pitch from Braves reliever Brandon Cunniff, landing in the swimming pool in right-center. It was the sixth homer of the year for the center fielder, who has hit safely in 12 of 14 games and batted .397 during that stretch. "I just got a pitch middle-away, I was trying to put it in the gap and watch Ender [Inciarte] run and hopefully get that run in," Pollock said. "Fortunate enough, it went over the fence." Braves starter Shelby Miller had his shortest outing of the year, lasting just 4 1/3 innings and giving up a season-high four runs on six hits and a season-high six walks. D-backs starter Josh Collmenter took his third straight no-decision, giving up three runs in 5 2/3 innings. "I just didn't get in the groove type thing, but those kinds of days happen," Miller said. "I mean, you're human. You look at Felix Hernandez's start [on Monday night in a Mariners' 7-1 loss to the Yankees] and other guys who are doing well have poor starts. That kind of stuff's going to happen." MOMENTS THAT MATTERED Doing it all: Ender Inciarte helped the D-backs with his bat, glove, and speed. He reached base four times, driving in two runs with a single in the second and walking ahead of Pollock's go-ahead homer. Inciarte also swiped two bases and made a diving catch in foul territory in the third on a Jace Peterson fly ball, crashing hard into the wall but holding on. Inciarte made a nice running catch on a Freddie Freeman liner to end the third. "Into the security guard, I think he kicked him in the head," D-backs manager Chip Hale said. "Well we had [Phoenix Coyotes captain Shane Doan] here [Monday], so I think he was inspired by him." Bats come to life: After Collmenter exited with runners on second and third and two outs in the sixth, the Braves came through with several big hits against the bullpen.A.J. Pierzynski hit a two-run single to right off of J.C. Ramirez, followed by an RBI double off the left-field wall from Jonny Gomes that tied the game at 4. Then, Todd Cunningham gave the Braves a 6-4 lead with a double down the left-field line off of Andrew Chafin. First base is yours: D-backs slugger Paul Goldschmidt was walked in each of his first four plate appearances, the last two times intentionally. It was the second time in three games that Goldschmidt matched his career high in walks. Mark Trumbo was unable to capitalize, however, going 0-for-5 in the cleanup spot. Scoring early: The Braves got to Collmenter with two out and nobody on in the first. Freeman singled, stole second and scored on a Nick Markakis double. Markakis was stranded on second when Juan Uribe whiffed looking, and that was it for the Atlanta offense in the opening innings. QUOTABLE "It's not easy. That's just who he is, he's locked in from the time, I think, he gets up at home." -- Hale, on Goldschmidt, who went 1-for-1 with a double and four walks WHAT'S NEXT Braves: The Braves end a 10-game road trip through Los Angeles, San Francisco and Phoenix on Wednesday with a 3:40 p.m. ET start at Chase Field. It'll be right-hander Mike Foltynewicz (3-2, 3.96 ERA) on the hill for Atlanta. The Braves have an off-day Thursday before opening a seven-game Turner Field homestand Friday night vs. the Pirates. D-backs: Rubby De La Rosa (4-2, 4.50) takes the mound in the series finale Wednesday at 12:40 p.m. MT looking to build on some of the success he had in May. The right-hander is 2-0 with a 3.71 ERA in his past five starts. Cunniff's inexperience costly to Braves Young reliever issues two-out walk, then go-ahead two-run HR in loss to D-backs By Barry M. Bloom / MLB.com | 2:40 AM ET PHOENIX -- It seems to be an epidemic of sorts this season around Major League Baseball, that two-out walk or base hit with nobody on base that winds up costing some team a game. "I've seen a lot of it from our side," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said after Tuesday night's 7-6 loss to the D-backs. "But, you're right. I don't know if it's younger pitchers with lack of focus and experience. I don't know if it's the strike zone. When you walk a guy you give your defense no chance to get an out. We've got to get it fixed. We've really got to get it fixed." It happened to the Braves in the seventh inning against the D-backs. The two-out walk issued by young and inexperienced reliever Brandon Cunniff to Ender Inciarte led directly to the loss. A.J. Pollock hit a two-run homer into the pool in right-center field on a 1-0 pitch. "The walk, it killed me," Cunniff said in the understatement of the night. "I had [Inciarte] 1-2 and I couldn't finish him off. It killed me, you know." It was a night when Shelby Miller had one of his worst starts of the season, tying a career high with six walks, one of them to Paul Goldschmidt with the bases loaded, the first time Miller has done that in 89 big league starts. Four of the five Atlanta pitchers walked 10 D-backs in all. "You can't walk 10 guys in a game and expect to win," veteran catcher A.J. Pierzynski said. "I mean, it was one of those nights that things didn't work." Yet, despite all this, the Braves wiped out a 4-1 deficit with five runs in the sixth when they chased Arizona starter Josh Collmenter and sent nine guys to the plate. They led, 6-4, at that juncture, but they couldn't close the game out in the sixth and seventh innings. "I think we've lost five games on this [10-game] road trip and it's all in those innings," Gonzalez said. "We can't get the ball to [Jim] Johnson or to [Jason] Grilli. When we do that, we've got a good to chance to win a ballgame." Gonzalez said he's as perplexed as anyone at the inability of his pitchers to easily close out an inning. Even the usually reliable Miller issued a two- out, nobody-on walk in the first to Goldschmidt, who strolled four times in the game, twice intentionally. The irony is that Mark Trumbo, batting behind Goldschmidt, didn't beat the Braves. He went 0-for-5 and stranded nine runners in the game. But the Braves pitchers found a way to beat themselves. "You see it in the eyes of the position players sometimes when they're battling," Gonzalez said. "And you know it's nobody's fault, really. We scratch back from down 4-1 and go up two runs, and the next thing you know, they hit a two-run homer and they win the ballgame. You don't want too many more of these." Freeman, Braves seek All-Star votes Slugger not among top five at first base in NL; Pierzynski fourth among catchers By Mark Bowman / MLB.com | @mlbbowman | June 2nd, 2015 ATLANTA -- Now that Freddie Freeman has homered in three of his past four games, he might start garnering the same level of support he received from All-Star voters the past few seasons. When the latest update of the 2015 Esurance MLB All-Star Game Ballot was released Tuesday afternoon, Freeman was not listed among the top five National League first basemen. For the second straight week, veteran catcher A.J. Pierzynski stood as the only Braves player who ranked among the top five at his respective position. Pierzynski has garnered the fourth-most votes among National League catchers. Still he sits more than one million votes behind San Francisco's Buster Posey, who holds a slim lead over St. Louis' Yadier Molina. Freeman has regularly ranked among the top five NL first basemen over the past couple of seasons. Those spots are currently occupied by Los Angeles' Adrian Gonzalez, Arizona's Paul Goldschmidt, Chicago's Anthony Rizzo, St. Louis' Matt Adams and San Francisco's Brandon Belt. Fans can cast their votes for starters at MLB.com and all 30 club sites -- on their computers, tablets and smartphones -- using the 2015 Esurance MLB All-Star Game Ballot until Thursday, July 2, at 11:59 p.m. ET. For the first time, voting is exclusively online, where fans may submit up to 35 ballots. Fans may also receive the ballot by texting VOTE to 89269 (USA) or 101010 (Canada).

    Atlanta Braves Clippings Thursday, September 10, 2020 Braves.com Braves set NL standard with 29-run outburst Atlanta breaks Modern Era record in National League (since 1900) By Mark Bowman ATLANTA -- Adam Duvall produced his second three-homer game within an eight-day span to help the Braves roll to a record-setting 29-9 win over the Marlins on Wednesday night at Truist Park. Duvall became the first player to record two three-homer games while wearing a Braves uniform, and his efforts helped Atlanta set a National League record for runs in a game in the modern era (since 1900). “That was pretty amazing to be a part of,” Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman said. “I’ve never seen an offense click like that.” The Braves fell just one run short of tying the modern record for runs scored in a game, set when the Rangers defeated the Orioles, 30-3, in the first game of a doubleheader on Aug. 22, 2007, at Camden Yards. Dating back to 1900, no NL club had scored more than 28 runs in a game. The Braves’ franchise record was 23, a mark tallied during the second game of a doubleheader against the Cubs on Sept. 2, 1957. Ronald Acuña Jr. contributed to his three-hit night with a three-run home run to cap a six-run fifth. But it was his bases-loaded double in the sixth inning that gave the Braves a new franchise record for runs in a single game, opening a 25-8 lead. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Atlanta became the first MLB team to score at least 22 runs through the first five innings since the Blue Jays (24 runs) in a win over the Orioles on June 26, 1978.

Thank you. A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months by Colin Thomas Reynolds, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 SUPERVISORS: Tracy Dahlby & Bill Minutaglio The narrative itself is an ageless one, a fundamental Shakespearean tragedy in its progression. A young man is deemed invaluable and exalted by the public. The hero is cast into the spotlight and bestowed with insurmountable expectations. But the acclamations and pressures are burdensome and the invented savior fails to fulfill the prospects once imagined by the public. He is cast aside, disregarded as a symbol of failure or one deserving of pity. It’s the quintessential tragedy of a fallen hero. The protagonist of this report is Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg, who enjoyed a phenomenal rookie season before it ended abruptly due to a severe elbow injury.

    The Boston Red Sox Monday, November 5, 2018 * The Boston Globe Mookie Betts, Jackie Bradley Jr., and Ian Kinsler win Gold Glove awards Peter Abraham Jackie Bradley Jr. didn’t need a Gold Glove to be recognized as one of the best center fielders in the major leagues. Red Sox fans have known that for several years. But Bradley certainly did deserve one and it finally came his away on Sunday night. Bradley, right fielder Mookie Betts, and second baseman Ian Kinsler were Gold Glove winners. The Red Sox and Atlanta Braves each had three. A finalist in 2014 and ’16, Bradley was selected ahead of Mike Trout (Angels) and Adam Engel (White Sox) in voting done by managers and coaches. Bradley was second among MLB center fielders with an 8.7 ultimate zone rating and tied for the American League lead with eight assists. There’s no statistic for improbable acrobatic catches but Bradley had a series of those. Betts won for the third consecutive year, the first Red Sox player to do that since Dwight Evans won five in a row from 1981-85. Betts is now one of seven Red Sox players to win three or more Gold Gloves. Betts led all right fielders with 20 defensive runs saved. He has 83 DRS the last three seasons. Kinsler, 36, is now a two-time winner. He also won with the Tigers in 2016. In 128 games for the Angels and Red Sox, Kinsler had 10 DRS, the most in the AL at second base. Andrew Benintendi (left field) and Mitch Moreland (first base) were finalists.
