    Offense never came to life. 3 solo home runs while pitchers give up 8 runs. This edition of Braves clearly had no fight for Phillies. A team that trailed us by 14 games in regular season.

    Just wanted to add one more post to this thread:

    So very proud of the thrills our Atlanta Braves team gave us fans this year!

    From June 1st on, we had the best record in the national league, if not all of major league, and came from 10.5 games back of "those lousy, stinking Mets" to catch them by sweeping three of three (Sal Licata : "its over"!) from those Mets in the final weekend of the season!

    Could not have enjoyed a season more! Beating the Phillies would have been nice, but all in all , a fifth straight division title is something of which we can all be proud!

    On to the off season.....Many things to do and fix, but thankfully, we have ol' "double A" and Brian Snitker in charge!

    Go Braves!

    Yeah, the pennant chase was really fun. Sorry it didn't turn out but some of the other best teams in baseball are staying home as well. Baseball is, indeed, a funny sport and the gods of BB often have very little sense of proportion.
