Excited to think our Braves are playing their first game of the year!

Will we get any info on how the game went and maybe a box score?

[Da Coach]

I think you are the closest member to Brazil. How about you run down there and file a report?

[Da Coach]

Coach Les just filed this report-

1st Game in the books-very very phsical but i like it and we need it. Adapted well by 2nd half.3 minutes ago from web

First game in the books-VERY physical but we adapted well by 2nd half. A lil sloppy early but for 1st game/travel

Any chance we will get a box score or at least a recap in the pjstar?

Well for any of you still wondering on if AW is still in a boot or not...look at the pictures and you'll find your answer

I noticed that. Will's knee looked to be wrapped as well. Looking forward to seeing a report on the first game and hopefully some minutes played.

[real fan]

I would have thought by now that our SID would have sent some stats from the 1st game.

August and still in a boot. I would be surprised if he's ready to start the season.

He says he hopes to put together a box score later tonight.

That is discouraging. I thought someone posted last week that he had been out of it for a while. Any chance it could be some sort of traveling precaution?

He was in it last week before they left. I have traveled wearing a boot before, and believe me it's such a hassle getting through security that I highly doubt he would be wearing it unless he needed to be.
