Someone please tell them to turn their swag on (Rockies 5, Braves 1)

I got a question why they hatin' on me/

The last game I was wondering what was the at-bat song for Braves center fielder Jordan Schafer. Tonight I found it, with the help of Google. It has an appropriate lyric that would befit an at-bat song:

Turn my swag on/
It's my time to turn it up, yeah, yeah/
I put my team on, did my theme song/
Now it's time to turn it up


But the Braves offense has been anemic (including Schafer going 0-for-3 in Monday's loss to the Rockies), making me wonder if the team is making use of the first quote instead.

Equally anemic was the 15,000+ attending crowd. I am wondering if catcher Brian McCann is still having trouble playing defense without his glasses, as he bobbled a catch at home from first that ended up with the Rockies' first run scored.

Also unfortunate was a sliding catch that Garret Anderson wasn't able to keep.

Otherwise, it was a fun evening, seeing a close pitching battle between Derek Lowe (who had a nice single) and Jason Marquis.
