I was saying in the wrong thread how I hate both teams, but the chop made me hate the Braves more. Couldn't stomach to watch the whole thing but Phils win game one 7-6.



Down with Braves, down with the chop!

If the third option is a meteor strike I'll pick that one.

But since it said not to click there, I went with the Pfightin' Phills.

Down 7 - 1 in the 5th and 7 - 3 after 8, Braves scored thrice in the 9th: 1B, 1B, K, 3R HR (Olson), but then made the final two outs witjout getting another runner on to fall short.

Zach Eflin was the closer-du-jour for the Phightin's

Los Bravos almost came back in the ninth. Almost!

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

I will go with the Braves. Not sure why, but I just don't like the Phillies. I may not like the Braves, but I respect and admire the way the Braves have built themselves into a perennial power. They are a well run and efficient organization.

Scheduled for a 4:40 start, Game #2 PHI/ATL is delayed until at least 7 PM and maybe longer.

If the delay lasts a few hours, maybe I can still make it to the game via train:

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

Wheeler was near-perfect thru 5 but then got touched up for 3 in the 6th after two out and none on [HBP, BB, 1B (should have been E3) IF 1B, 1B)



Both starters now out. 3-0 Braves going to bottom 7

And the series is tied at a game a piece.

3 - 0 Braves

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

Braves opted for rookie Spenser Strider in place of vet Charlie Morton.

Strider was perfect thru two.

He didn't survive the 3rd.

6 - 0 Phillies, middle of 3

The Phillies must have got a lot of "lucky" hits.

Maybe the Braves, the brilliant team that makes every move correctly and is so much smarter than every other team, shouldn't have started a pitcher who hadn't pitched in a month.

It was likely to be either Spenser/Morton or Morton/Spenser in games 3 & 4

Turns out that not only did Spenser not finish the 3rd but Morton today didn't even get that far, coming out after two.

Syndergaard started for Philly but he was gone after 3 also (more a pre-planned move, I think)



It's a HR-fest in Philly so far.

Phils: 3R 2nd inning by greasy/hairy Brandon Marsh, then an inside-the-park job from Realmuto in the 3rd

Braves: solos by Arcia and Olson



4-2 Phightins, bottom 4

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

Realmuto had 21 SB and was caught only once this year. And he hit 5 triples.

So the fact that he hit an inside the park homer isn't a super shocker to me.

Keep it going, Phillies.

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

So after bludgeoning the Braves early in this Game 4, the Phils are now paper-cutting them to death with tack-on runs in the 6th.

Atlanta with three tries to save their season, down 7 - 2 while getting out-hit 11 - 3



Poor starts and barely hitting while losing to a sub-90 win team! Who do they think they are, the Mets?!?







Of course ss I'm typing all this Td'A leads off the 7th w/a HR.

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

So the Braves are down to their last three outs and down by five runs.

Things not looking very good for a repeat championship.

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

It seems like only yesterday that we were cursing out the Phillies for not giving the Braves more of a challenge during those last two ATL/PHI reg season series.



What you thought might burn the Braves all year, their relatively low OBA, finally got to them today: 3 HRs but all solo and only 4 hits total.

Their 9th inning box score reads: K - K - K, and that was from 2-3-4 in their order.

Re: INLDST - Braves v Phils

Well, the Mets and the Braves split their season series as evenly as possible, each won 101 games, and each one just one game in the postseason. They're evenly-matched as possible. Maybe that'll carry on to their offseason golf game.

That's true at least to the extent that there have been no back-to-back (or even belly-to-belly) Champs.

There have been 15 different franchises win the last 22 trophies starting from the 2000 season.



The NFL who, as we all know, has much greater parity due to their rigid salary cap, has had a whopping 13 different teams hoist the Lombardi since 2000.
