2021-10-12 (NLDS Game #4): Brewers (Lauer) at Braves (Morton) [Brewers lose, 5-4 -- Freeman’s 8th inning HR off Hader breaks tie, and hearts]

[DuWayne Steurer]

Somehow squeeze 2 innings out of Ashby.... get an inning out of Box? get one out of Cousins. Hader. Cross fingers and hope (or pray, whatever it is you do)

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

That Urias play could be a series changer. Not many third basemen make that play. Let's get it to a game five, gents!

[TURBO]

I dunno the announcers seemed pretty excited for that Tellez HR.

 

Huh? Francouer, former Brave, seemed dejected. He clearly seems to be pulling for the Braves to me.

 

100% truth, it has been obvious.

[jason21nl]

Got a good feeling about today. 6 runs on 12 hits in a 6-4 victory.

 

Can’t win 6-4 without giving up some. We’re going to win this game and series

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Do you throw out Hunter for one more with the pitcher spot coming up first or to go Ashby now?

[TURBO]

Now Ashby has to hit if we expect 2+ innings from him. Getting past the pitcher spot there would have been pretty big... Edited October 12, 2021 by turborickey

Time for the Aaron Ashby postseason breakout party to commence.

[adambr2]

I'm guessing they try to get one inning out of Hunter here.

[Joseph Zarr]

Boy, I have a hard time understanding some of the Crew AB's letting called strike 3's. If it's close? It's too close. Swing?

[OldSchoolSnapper]

So if SF wins tonight and the Brewers win, would Game 5 be at like 7 instead of 4?

[jjfanec]

Love the offense but ended the last two innings sticking out looking. Need to protect the plate better

Agree for the most part but think Cain just got fooled there...he looked back at the ump and was nodding as if he was in agreement with the call

How silky smooth was that get and throw? My goodness. Incredible stuff. He has been a godsend this entire series at 3rd.

[Eye Black]

Rowdy’s HR (448ft) was the longest in the Postseason since they’ve been tracked by Statcast (since 2015).

[adambr2]

Nope, I guess it's Ashby now.

 

Maybe double switch JBJ in for Cain? Not sure I want to make that move though especially with lefties in the pen for the Braves.

[Eye Black]

So if SF wins tonight and the Brewers win, would Game 5 be at like 7 instead of 4?

I believe so, but I haven’t seen anything official. Can’t imagine they’d play at 4pm if they didn’t have to. Obviously it would be the only game on Thursday in that scenario.

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

I really thought Strickland would go one more with the pitcher's spot coming up, but let's go Aaron!

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Think it's too early to put JBJ's bat in the game.

[Joseph Zarr]

I REALLY REALLLLLLLLLY want dominancing movement machine Ashby. Can we please get that version?

[PinaMadness]

Pina's in the game. Now we're getting serious.

[Joseph Zarr]

Oh Baby. Give it to me Ash!

[WinkelsasVsSoriano]

Ouch, that got Manny flush in the... well...

[Eye Black]

Ouch.

[HarveysWBs]

Pour one out for Piña’s boys…

It would be the only game so the game would move to the primetime slot.
