A shame, but it's more of an exhibition than a championship game. <BR/><BR/>The Braves still have the Governors' Cup, and they're still International League Champions!Andrew Hammhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08714127938846605400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23015033.post-56435951621445642912007-09-17T11:14:00.000-04:002007-09-17T11:14:00.000-04:00What great games!

Am really glad for him, for the entire ball club and for Richmond.<BR/><BR/>We were knuckleheads and it was fun. "I feel Pridie," indeed.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for a great day, R-BRAVES! -GMGrant Mudgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11422045306646248062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23015033.post-11242066552704850042007-09-16T10:48:00.000-04:002007-09-16T10:48:00.000-04:00It was a great day for sports fans in Richmond on ...It was a great day for sports fans in Richmond on Saturday. Although my 3 to 9 rehearsal for "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" prevented me from catching the entire UVA game, they pulled out a much-needed ACC road win (and their second ACC win this year) in Chapel Hill. The Hokies also beat back a feisty Ohio team in Blacksburg.<BR/><BR/>I'd loved to have attended the Braves' championship double-header, and since I knew rehearsal would not permit a Saturday game I was hoping for a Friday night seat, my only night off...but with rainy weather forecast, Carol and I went out to dinner together instead. Good choice, as it came down in torrents at times.<BR/><BR/>So glad you got to see it happen Andrew, and that the Mudge factor helped boost the Braves' fortunes!Frank Creasyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302762603707230845noreply@blogger.com
