Leaving guys on 2nd and 3rd in consecutive innings for the Braves. That usually doesn’t lead to winning games.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Well the Reds failed to score in the top of the 10th. Let’s go Braves.

As long as the Brewers keep winning I want the Reds to keep winning. I hate the west coast teams more and I think they're better than the Reds so it's a win/win if Cinci gets the wild card as far as I'm concerned.

I’m rooting for them to close out the Reds before the final week of the season. The sooner before the end of the season the Brewers clinch the division, hopefully the better it will be for their ability to reset their rotation and keep the bullpen from being overused heading into the playoffs. Also, the Brewers finish the season with the Dodgers, so not having to show LA their best pitchers would be a benefit, IMO.

Not just “at Night” anymore.

74 strikes in 99 pitches. That’s probably the best stat of the night.

Is it a bad thing if the Braves lose? Wouldn't they be the toughest matchup out of the East?

 

Yeah, I'm kind of of the "win your games" school, but winning the division is just really cool independent of the postseason. So any little bit that brings that closer is all great for me.
