Wouldn't it be nice if the Braves swept this series. I know Leo and the rest of the Padres fans would think so but I would love it.

I'll be at Turner Field for games 3 and 4.

Nice. I can't wait for 17 years when I retire and move to Atlanta and buy season tickets but I gotta wait. Be sure to get some pictures. I'm looking forward to the Smoltz and Maddux matchup, which I'm sure most are.

When did this happen, Leo in the A? I gots to track down that Eli Manning looking mofo.

I'm going there with a few other Padres fans who live in the south from another Padres message board I post at.

I've been to Turner Field before. Back in 1999 when I was going to A-School in South Carolina we had a voluntary evacuation due to a hurricane, so a group of friends and I went to Atlanta. While we were there we went to a Braves/Expos game. The Braves won on a Brett Boone home run.

I did the tomahawk chop and everything since I didn't really have any allegiance to either team.

Vilarreal just came in for James, so I assume he's not starting tomorrow.

Braves stole game 2 after Germano pitched a good game.

Rare bad outing for Heath Bell.

I'll be at the game tomorrow and Thursday.
