The Braves are playing much better lately, and I got to attend their victory over the Florida Marlins on July 26th.

UPDATE!! – I think I need to stop doing this. They have lost 5 of 6 now!

Tennis memories

This is one of the public tennis courts in Springfield, about 25 miles north of Savannah. Growing up, I used to play on this court several times a week. It looks pretty much the same as it did then with its chain-link net and faded lines.

Warren Spahn

The Braves are in the middle of a losing streak, so I thought I’d turn to one of their past heroes for some good luck. Warren Spahn is one of the greatest pitchers in history, and his great statue is right outside Turner Field.

Go Braves!

Go Braves!

The Braves aren’t off to a great start so far, but they’ll probably get going once it warms up. I took this last season, and the batter is Andruw Jones.

Home of the Braves!

Turner Field opened for the Braves in 1997. It was built for the 1996 Olympics and then it was converted for the Braves. This photo was taken from the building I work in.

Atlanta’s National Hockey League team, the Thrashers, are named after the State Bird of Georgia. They are fighting for a spot in the NHL playoffs, and I attended several games this season. They play at Phillips Arena, which replaced the Omni.
