    Wait, the Braves' home field equipment breaks down, and Cox protests the game? How stupid!

    Has any team ever won a protest? If so, what happens?

    He is saying that Garner is lying about the Phones and doesn't think that the phones were not messed up.

    He doesn't buy it... or he's mad that Garner came out, looked like he was making a move (when he was really complaining about the phones), and then came out again after Backe told him that Lidge was ready.

    Of course, this has nothing to do with the bad throw that got Furcal into scoring position, the K by Giles, and the WP out by Furcal.... all thesse events happened AFTER the incident.

    I can't imagine the protest meaining anything. Is there anyway to prove that the bullpen phone wasn't working at the time?

    I liked it last inning when the announcers said Cox was complaining because Garner came onto the field once, went back into the dugout and came out again without making the change. But wait, the did make the change.

    I wish we could do a side by side picture of that kid and Bobby Cox...or maybe they were related for all we know.

    I understand icing the pitcher... but icing the batter? or icing the rally???? those things don't even exist.

    Dumb Braves.

    Hell, I'm surprised he's playing. He probably should be on the bench.
