Obviously I'm not surprised. I wouldn't have been too surprised if it'd gone to somebody else though.
Hrbek pulling Gant off the bag is right up there with The ump calling pitches by The Fish's Livan Hernandez that were closer to 1st base than home plate strikes in all time piss off WC umpiring.
I like the Bravos in 4.
Not so fun fact......The Braves haven’t won a game 1 since 2001 against the Astros, which incidentally is the last time the Braves have won a playoff series. I’m expecting that to change this year.
Need to in order to set the tone for the series. This is still a young team in a lot of key spots. I think some early success in the series would go a long way.
Let's put some optimism in here...
I was there that night. Unforgettable!!
Greatest call in Braves history, IMO.
They left Teheran off the roster. Not totally surprising but unfortunate form him, he gave the team a lot this year.
So Folty and Soroka are going in Game 2 and Game 3, respectively. Not kidding, a Top 3 story of the season could be Folty's miraculous turnaround if he is indeed effective in the NLDS.
His ERA ballooned to 6.37 (!) after his 11th start of the season on June 22 against the Nationals when he coughed up 8 earned runs in just 4 innings. Since then, he has pitched to a 2.65 ERA in his last 10 starts after chilling out in Gwinnett for the entirety of July.
I'm pretty surprised, unless he is dealing with a lingering issue.
I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed with this decision.
Just as predicted.
Yeah, I was going to give you kudos on that. Just wait for it next time!
The Atlanta Braves are playing a playoff game today. I''m just gonna leave this here:
And this preseason projection chart:
Yes, that's a whopping 19% chance of winning the division.
