I don't know if its been discussed anywhere on these boards though I am sure it has.
But dear lord how did Miami lose that game to Tech?
Good win for the Braves they are back in this thing. Looks like the Dodgers are going down.
A win today puts all the pressure back on Philly. We are due for an early offensive explosion. GO BRAVES!!!
Elder needs to pitch well. I think we have had good luck against Nola.
Either way is it a home filed advantage for Philadelphia. Yes.
But playing in that small ballpark isnt the worst thing for a team with the Braves power.
The Phils are not without some pop themselves in that little band box.
Yes I am ready for another Braves win. Time for Acuna Jr to bust out and bring his teammates along for the ride.
We know MVP awards are based on in season play but the stars come out in postseason.
Yes, every Braves starter has at least 50 at bats against Nola so they should know him well.
Riley, Olson, Acuna and Ozuna in particular have gone deep on him multiple times.
And he does not have the velocity that Wheeler had, so things could/shoulrd work in our favor.
Come on Elder......show them what you are made of!!
Our pitching has not been good in this series at all. And all of theirs look like Cy young candidates
HAVE MERCY
Like the Dodgers. As Deion said many years ago, in baseball tomorrow is another day. You don't have to wait a week toget back out there.
Phillies are bullying these poor Braves. I wonder if Snit cares if we run hard to first base tomorrow? Probably not. After all, we are Regular Season Champs!
Its over fellas. Hope y’all enjoyed game 2
We better find some bats at the hotel tonight. They’ve found theirs
Strider up!
Let’s bring this back to the ATL and Fried!
One thing I have noticed about Acuna Jr, he seems to have taken the Manny Muchado hustle class. No need to hustle unless you know it could be a double. He has great talent but this is the 1st year I have noticed his lack of hustle on ground balls. Obviously he hustles on the base paths but not to 1st base.
Am I wrong?
Is this series 1-1-2-1? If so, not much benefit to being regular season champs.
No two games in Atlanta, two in Philly and one in Atlanta.
Win tomorrow, series tied then back to Atlanta for the deciding game!
But having the best wild card team in your bracket sux….they should have re-seeded after the wild card matches giving us the D-backs to play as a reward for finishing first!
No, you aren’t. The Braves Managers never require hustle to 1st. It’s leftover from the Bobby Cox way. And it contributes negatively to our playoff performances year after year. The Phillies are out for blood and the Braves are lucky to still be in the series.
I am baffled by this team. Our season ends tomorrow if they don't show up....no more excuses. We are better than this!! we clinched the division on their field last month. WE ARE BETTER THAN THIS.
In a sweep, no less!
Seems like a Bye in round 1 is the kiss of death. Only Astros will be through to LCS unless Braves turn it around and Astros were the last ones to get the Bye.
