Tough draw getting Cincy in the first round. I would rather have faced any of the other lower 4 seeds.

Braves take the first game 1-0 in 13 innings. Freeman had the walk off hit.
Braves advance! Another shut out. Now we play the winner of the Cubs and Fish.
Braves Advanced. Looked better at MM than Houston has all year. Pitching is still a concern without Soroka
This team is a wrecking ball right now. I'm not worried about pitching. Fried and Anderson have been throwing like aces all season, and Kyle Wright has been locked in his last 5 starts. The bullpen is legitimately 8 deep (Melancon, Martin, Smith, O'Day, Matzek, Minter, Greene, Webb). So I guess they would start Ynoa or Tomlin in game 4 and hope to get 3 or 4 innings, then let the bullpen take over. Not sure if one of those would start game 5, or if they would just start the rotation over on short rest. I do wish they had one more reliable starter, but the bullpen is so deep that it should be able to cover for that as long as they don't have to be over-used in the first 3 games.
4 shutouts in 5 games. Unreal.

Congrats! Enjoy the postseason run- that pitching has been insane. That said, it will be tough for the Braves to beat the Dodgers- they're on fire.
Duvall hurt so Pache comes in. Will be interesting to see if Duvall cant go who they decide to bring up. Inciarte could be the guy but the Braves will need offense.
What a game!
Great game for the Braves!
What was the split of the crowd between neutral/Braves/Dodgers?
Got tickets for Thursdays game!
Kershaw scratched
If you can't handle the stress, log off until August. If you can handle the stress, be supportive and donate to United. No more buildings and concrete. Gotta channel funds to the collective for now.
What section is that?
It was probably 70% Dodgers, 25% Braves and then 5% random people who just wanted to see Stadium at game 1
Right when I walked in from Texas Live. It wasn't really a section
That's interesting because when they asked Roberts about it during game 1 he said he thought it was more Braves fans.
Got dicey at the end but cant complain up 2 games. Having 7 straight games potentially is still going to be a challenge for this staff. Need Wright to have a solid outing tomorrow and save some bullpen innings.

Well so much for saving the bullpen. Need to find a way to get through this and come back tomorrow. Dont like the matchup with Wilson starting tomorrow either.
Bryce Wilson is pitching great tonight. Really needed that after last night. Now we need to scratch a few more runs across.
MVFree!!!!!!!!!!
Ozuna!!!!!!!!!!
The offense getting some work done. Hopefully the pen can hold the lead. Wilson deserves the dub. He was brilliant.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Whats the chances of Ozuna signing a deal?

From the Braves perspective it likely depends on if the DH stays. Without a DH I don't think they would want to offer anything long term. His defense is not good now and only getting worse. Kind of like Donaldson, you dont tie yourself up with too long of a deal.
Hey dodgers, I guess the Braves are cheating you out of your world series, too?
Keep it going Braves!!!

Anybody going tonight? I'm driving up from Houston. Lets clinch and get ready to BTHO the Rays or the Asterisks.
Also, I've been meaning to post about 2021 tickets, but if anyone is looking for 2021 tickets at Truist, let me know. We are A-List Members and would be happy to share some tickets with Aggie Braves fans!
I like it. I think you look at Wright to follow him after an inning or maybe two if his pitch count stays low. Tomlin if things get out of hand.
We knew with this no days off bull crap that we'd have to use a bullpen arm to start

My family had Braves season tickets for years. I was in attendance at the '95 World Series deciding game, game 6. I'll never forget how high David Justice hit that homer in the 6th inning.
We just need ONE MORE WIN to punch our ticket to the World Series!

I've seen homers that have gone much further, but I've NEVER seen a ball hit that high. When Justice hit it I thought it was a pop fly, but it just kept going up, like it defied gravity. The only run of the game, so monumental in it's importance; it's burned into my memory.
7K's for Minter in 3 innings.....DEALING!
Has to be done for tonight after that.

Will Smith was a disaster tonight. That's the risk with bullpen games. At least we have Fried and Anderson ready to go on full test.
Really bad baserunning by Swanson and Riley there.
