Tell that to the Blue Jays who are 3rd in the league in HRs (2 behind the Yanks; 3 behind the Braves). They have the 2nd-worst record in the AL, ahead of only the Astros.

HR's only help you so much.

Yeh true. I was just saying there are so many stats/ways to prove your side.

As in the braves only needed 1 hr to beat SS in DC a couple of weeks ago. SS gets hardly any run support so far this year. But I think Julio will help the NATS tonight .

Nats with 9 hits in 4 innings and 2 runs only had themselves to blame...and the 2nd run for the Braves never should have counted....8 straight losses ...shocking....SS doesn't look right..his elbow looks whack..

Yeah that was a bad call. But bang bang..but Freddie being called out on the run back to 1st was a bad call, killed what could have been a big inning...SS - was def shaking his arm a lot tonight. It's not right.
