Atlanta Braves Clippings Tuesday, August 25, 2015 Braves.Com Atlanta Braves Clippings Tuesday, August 25, 2015 Braves.com Braves snap skid as Teheran quiets Rox By Jon Cooper and John Donovan / Special to MLB.com | 1:18 AM ET ATLANTA -- Julio Teheran went 7 1/3 strong innings and Atlanta's beleaguered bullpen held on as the Braves beat the Rockies, 5-3, on Monday night at Turner Field, snapping a seven-game losing streak. Braves left fielder Jonny Gomes crushed a first-inning two-run homer and his defensive replacement, Michael Bourn, made a critical outfield assist in the eighth to cut down a Colorado run. The Braves won for only the third time in their last 14 games. The Rockies, coming off a dismal 2-7 homestand, dropped their fourth straight despite a pair of early home runs from Charlie Blackmon and Ben Paulsen. After Paulsen's homer in the second, though, Teheran retired 19 of the final 22 batters he faced -- eight straight at one point -- before being pulled in the eighth. MOMENTS THAT MATTERED No place like home for Julio: Teheran continued his dominance at Turner Field, raising his record to 7-1 with a masterful performance. He matched his season high in innings, and shook off a pair of solo homers -- only the second game this season in which he allowed two homers in a game at home -- and, after the second-inning homer by Paulsen, allowed only two hits and three baserunners over the ensuing 6 1/3 innings. "You know it's going to be tough against Teheran," Colorado manager Walt Weiss said. "He's got a good slider. Especially to the right handers. He had it working tonight." Getting out of a jam … barely: Colorado pinch-hitter Matt McBride's soft single to left with one out in the eighth drove Teheran from the game, and then things got funky for the Atlanta 'pen. Blackmon followed with a hard bunt down the third-base line against lefty reliever Ross Detwiler that Atlanta's Adonis Garcia fielded, but his throw to first wasn't in time. The play itself raised eyebrows; the ball could have rolled foul. With runners at first and second, Jose Reyes followed with a hard-hit ball back to a new reliever, Edwin Jackson, who made another iffy play, deciding to go to first for one sure out instead of a possible inning- and threat-ending double play. Brandon Barnes then followed with a scorching single to left to bring in a run, but Bourn's possible game-saving peg to catcher Christian Bethancourt cut down Blackmon at the plate -- the Rockies challenged, and a review confirmed it -- to end the inning. Top of the lineup: Blackmon cranked his fifth leadoff homer of the season -- the 11th of his career (adding to his club record) -- when he turned on a 91 mph fastball from Teheran just three pitches into the game and snuck it just inside the right-field foul pole. It was Blackmon's 15th homer of the season. Homer happy: The first five runs of the game all came via the home run: Blackmon, Gomes' two-run blast, Paulsen's solo shot and a go-ahead solo shot from Garcia in the fourth. Left outs: Left fielders Gomes and Bourn came up big for the Braves, one offensively, one defensively. Gomes came into the game with one homer and four RBIs in August. He proceeded to nearly double his output, with a key two-run shot in the bottom of the first that gave Atlanta the lead after Blackmon's homer led off the game. He'd later add a key insurance run, grounding a single to center. Bourn, replacing Gomes for defense in the eighth, gunned down Blackmon to end the eighth-inning threat. QUOTABLE "I just get ready to prepare myself to play the game. I'm ready to go. If you can get to a guy before he really gets comfortable, you can wear him down. And that's what we were doing early on." -- Blackmon, on his leadoff home runs "It was a little weird at the beginning because we haven't thrown in a while, but we got on the same page like always. It's good to have him back here." -- Teheran on pitching to rookie Bethancourt, who was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday afternoon INJURY EXIT The Rockies pulled right fielder Carlos Gonzalez in the fifth inning because of soreness in his right knee, but Weiss said he was hopeful his slugger will be back for Tuesday's game. WHAT'S NEXT Rockies: Righty Chad Bettis (2-2, 4.54 ERA) makes his return to the mound Tuesday against the Braves (5:10 p.m. MT) at Turner Field, his first action since July 18. He's been sidelined by elbow inflammation, but Weiss and team doctors pronounced him ready to go. "We feel like he's 100 percent healthy," Weiss said. "I think he's really accomplished a lot this year. He's finally settled into that starter role. I feel like he's in his element as a starter." Braves: Hard-throwing right-hander Mike Foltynewicz (4-5, 6.06) makes his 18th start of the season for Atlanta in the middle game of the three- game series against Colorado at Turner Field on Tuesday night (7:10 ET). Foltynewicz is 4-2 at home, despite pitching to a 6.20 ERA with a .321 opponents' batting average. He is looking to turn around a tough stretch in which he's allowed 13 runs on 17 hits over his last two starts, covering 9 1/3 innings. Tandem in left proves all right for Braves Gomes' offense, Bourn's defense fuel slide-ending victory By Jon Cooper / Special to MLB.com | 12:33 AM ET ATLANTA -- It's getting a little crowded in left field for the Braves, but that's not a bad thing. On Monday night at Turner Field, left field was the difference, as Jonny Gomes started and had a huge night at the plate, then Michael Bourn came in for defense in the eighth and made a key play to help preserve the Braves' 5-3 win over the Colorado Rockies. The win ended Atlanta's season- high seven-game losing streak. "That's the blueprint these days with platoon," said Gomes, who finished the night 2-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs -- he'd come into the game with one homer and four RBIs in August. "We showed both sides of it today." "It went both ways," agreed Bourn, who recorded his third outfield assist of the season, short-circuiting the Rockies' eighth-inning rally. "Jonny had a great night tonight, he had a homer and three RBIs. That's a big night. He hit the ball well and hats off to him." Gomes' big night started in the bottom of the first, when he launched a 2-1 pitch from Rockies left-hander Jorge De La Rosa (7-6) into the second tier of seats in left field. The two-run shot, a no-doubter, gave Atlanta a 2-1 lead. Colorado center fielder Charlie Blackmon had led off the game with a solo shot off Atlanta starter Julio Teheran (9-6). Gomes put the distance of the blast in perspective. "As Hank Aaron said, it's how many, not how far," he said. While the distance may not have meant much to Gomes, the timing of the blow gave Teheran a much-needed morale boost. "That was big," said Teheran, who raised his record to 7-1 at Turner Field by matching his season high of 7 1/3 innings (he also did it June 6 vs. Pittsburgh). "Whenever you've got the lead, that's when you feel more confidence. Even if they tied the game in the second inning [on Ben Paulsen's homer], I was really focused and I knew they were going to give the lead back to me." Braves third baseman Adonis Garcia did that, crushing a solo homer to dead center in the fourth, giving Atlanta the lead for good. Gomes added insurance, grounding an RBI single to center in the fifth and right fielder Nick Markakis drove in Atlanta's final run with a one-out double in the sixth. Gomes gave the credit for his RBI single to Freddie Freeman, who pulled a grounder to first to move runner Cameron Maybin to third base. Maybin had led off the inning with a double. "Freeman getting the runner from second to third allowed me to get that RBI," Gomes said. "It was good all the way around." Left field was good all the way around when Bourn entered the game for defense to start the eighth. After Teheran allowed a one-out single from pinch-hitter Matt McBride, Ross Detwiler relieved and gave up a bunt single by Blackmon on a ball Garcia charged and bare-handed although it appeared it might roll foul. Edwin Jackson relieved Detwiler and made a great stop on a rocket through the box by Jose Reyes, choosing the safe 1-3 putout. With runners on second and third and two out, right fielderBrandon Barnes singled to Bourn. "I just tried to get to the ball as quick as I can. That way the runner is not past the bag when I make the throw," Bourn said. "I came up and threw it through the cutoff man and it got a good hop to the catcher and he made the play. It was a great tag that Christian [Bethancourt] made.

The same, wide smile that endeared him to teammates, coaches and fans across two continents was more obvious. “This is for my growth and experience,” Otsuka said Tuesday. “This is my challenge, to become a major league coach. And I want to help the players. Everybody helped me a lot when I was a player, so now I want to give back.” Otsuka, who pitched for the Padres from 2004-05, has returned to the organization with an unprecedented title: Triple-A El Paso’s bullpen coach.

    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

    Atlanta Braves Clippings Thursday, December 17, 2015 Braves.com Braves make deal with catcher Flowers official By Mark Bowman / MLB.com | @mlbbowman | December 16th, 2015 ATLANTA -- Immediately after being non-tendered by the White Sox two weeks ago, Atlanta-area native Tyler Flowers began looking forward to a potential homecoming. The veteran catcher received his wish last week when he and the Braves agreed to a two-year, $5.3 million contract. The Braves officially announced the completion of the deal on Wednesday afternoon. Outfielder Dian Toscano was outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett to create a spot on the 40-man roster for Flowers, who is now set to share the Braves' catching duties with his former White Sox teammate A.J. Pierzynski. "This turned out maybe even better than I had hoped," Flowers said. "Atlanta is home to me, and the [Braves] organization is somewhat home to me as well. When I was non-tendered, I was hoping the Braves would be interested because I knew I would love an opportunity to return." After being born and raised in suburban Atlanta, Flowers experienced the thrill of being selected by his hometown team in the 33rd round of the 2005 Draft. The 6-foot-4, 245-pound catcher steadily enhanced his stock during the three seasons he played in Atlanta's farm system. He was one of the key pieces the Braves used to acquire Javier Vazquez from the White Sox on Dec. 4, 2008. With the addition of Flowers, the Braves have gained an opportunity to lessen the workload placed on the 38-year-old Pierzynski, who logged 104 starts as Atlanta's catcher this year.
