For those who desire a summary of the game before my idiosyncratic ramblings about matters related and unrelated:
Top first, Max Varsity Fried Pie (I prefer the peach, but my wife insists on the apple)—retires the Fish without any damage. First pitch bottom of first–RAJ bomb. Immediately thereafter, Ozzie triple (don’t pay attention to the official scorer on this one)—score on FF groundout. 2-0 Braves.
Top Second—Harold Ramirez solo homer; bottom second—Austin City Limits solo homer. 3-1 Braves. Looking good.
Top Third—Starling Castro solo shot; bottom third—Ozzie double, JD BB, Nick double, scoring Ozzie, JD out at plate.
