00:00That is the Atlanta Braves who once again picked up a victory.

00:06Now keep in mind also, you're supposed to beat the Colorado Rockies outside of Colorado

00:11guys, right?

00:12Look at the Rockies now, 51-89 on the season, completely dead in the water it seems outside

00:17of Coors.

00:18The Atlanta Braves with that victory 5-2 now get their 76th win of the season.

00:22Don't think they're going to be able to track down the Philadelphia Phillies, but they got

00:25to hold on tight here to hold off the New York Mets.

00:28If you looked at the pitching matchups yesterday, Blaylock was one of my worst pitchers on

00:32the card.

00:33I believe he had 26 pitchers rated.

00:34He was in the bottom five and he certainly, guys, did not disappoint yesterday.

00:38Five innings pitched, four earned runs, six walks.

00:41You cannot have six walks over five innings and expect to escape here with the victory

00:46and he certainly did not.

00:47You take a look at Morton, one of those guys that just seems like he's ageless on the mound,

00:52was great yesterday.

00:53Eight and seven now on the season, five innings pitched, two earned runs, eight strikeouts.

00:58That is all you need to go up against the Colorado Rockies to handle their business.

01:02Some guys at the plate yesterday chipping in with RBI, Jorge Soler and also Matt Olsen.

01:07I had three guys picked out in this game yesterday to record RBI.

01:11One of those guys was Soler, got it?

01:12One of those guys was Ozuna who missed out and one of those guys was Matt Olsen.

01:15So it was a pretty good game all the way through, but yet again, the stance here, the NLEs continues

01:21to do damage here over the past couple weeks.

01:23The Phillies that were in the dumpster for a while, it felt like, now back to their winning

01:27ways.

01:28The Atlanta Braves here, back to their winning ways and also the New York Mets who were thought

01:32to be, you know what, probably going to be out of this.

01:35Not our year.

01:36Let's rebuild.

01:37Are we going to sign Pete Alonso in the offseason?

01:39No longer the case.

01:40This team is playing as good a baseball as anybody in Major League Baseball right now.
