S3F High-Heat Matchup: Braves vs Nationals (3/30, ESPN, 8 PM EST)

[missionhockey21]

Sunday Night Baseball is back. Traditionalists (and many Reds fans) might still wish the opener was in Cincy, but I've come to accept SNB as the true start of the season (as opposed to the Japanese timezone the MLB is trying to readjust us to.) We'll be getting a look at the Nationals brand new ballpark, aptly named Nationals Park, and President Bush will be throwing out the first pitch. As nice as a new stadium might be, the Nationals are throwing out Odalis Perez as their ace to kick things off... where as the Braves are clearly going for the gusto this year and bringing back some franchise favorites to do it, while bumping up the team average age quite a bit.

Perez vs. Hudson. I don't know but I have just have a feeling the Braves got this one. It's the time we all get excited about, the time that we live for each and every year.

Music to my ears. Baseball!!! It has been a long winter and I am so ready for the games, spring, school being out to begin!!!!!

Over/under 45 mph for Bush's throw.

I didn't know Odalis Perez was on the Nationals until now.

[brewersfan19]

Plus he is facing his old mates. I guess that is agood way to open the new team's new stadium.

[Witlon]

Over, DK. I could see him getting up to about 60.

[brewersfan19]

If he doesnt throw a strike, he will be sooo embarrassed that he will probably raise the gas prices even more. hahahahaha....

[NYgiantsfan5689]

Over/under 45 mph for Bush's throw.

Over, Bush's got a gun. at least 80. I think the over/under here is the amount of distance away from Manny Acta he throws it in any direction. The over/under is 15 feet.

[Witlon]

Is the game on any other channel but ESPN? I can't stand Joe and Jon.

[brewersfan19]

But a hunting rifle doesnt count as the gun for throwing!!! hahahahaha.......

I wholeheartedly agree. But unfortunately we have to deal with them. Can't wait for Joe Buck to return to TV on his best sport.

[DirtyKash]

You LIKE Joe Buck!??! Ugh.

Dick Vitale should do baseball.

[browntown653]

IT'S A HOME RUN!!!! OVER THE FENCE BABAY!!!!!

I like Buck at baseball, not at football.

Just wondering why you don't like him. He might be my 2nd fav baseball announcer behind Matt Vasgerjian.
