Top of 1st summary:
Acuña singles to RF
Albies flies out
Riley Ks swinging.
Olson walks.
Murphy Ks swinging.

[WaitingFor2017]

This is one terrible camera angle.

[Heyward]

Winans doesnt look that bad so far. Stuff looks far better than Schuster and Dodd at least.

[GovClintonTyree]

Couple of very nice changeups that inning - one to Yelich and one to punch out Contreras.

[UNCBlue012]

Winan’s changeup looks excellent.

[UNCBlue012]

That’s two bad called strikes against the Braves in this inning alone lol

That said, these dudes are staring at way too many corner strikes.

[Heyward]

Well, ump gave us one there. He's calling it fair at least.

[UNCBlue012]

This umpire is absolutely brutal.

Also, both defenses look like booty butt

[Tapate50]

Winans getting some silly swings

[Heyward]

Jesus, Riley is LOCKED in right now.

[The Chosen One]

Riley back?

[buck75]

What kind of coffee is Riley drinking?

[Hudson2]

Riley is unreal right now.

[Heyward]

Riley back?

Like he never left.

[UNCBlue012]

Well, Riley has definitely figured it out lmao

[UNCBlue012]

Murphy has missed on an obscene number of middle-middle pitches the last week. So weird to see

[GovClintonTyree]

Dude is destroying everything right now. I thought it’d be next to impossible to lift the ball off Houser. Wrong again. Happily

[USMA76]

My apologies for the error in the initial thread. I'm in Central time forgetting that the lion's share of our fanbase is in the east. 8^(

[GovClintonTyree]

Where the **** was that?

[USMA76]

Where the **** was that?

Was wondering the same thing. Blue's trying to keep the home team in the game? (No, I'm not serious.)

[Heyward]

Big-time DP there.

[GovClintonTyree]

Kid looks really good. Pitchability guy who really has pitchability.

[Garmel]

Contreras swung at an awful pitch and paid for it.

[USMA76]

First pitch (called strike on Acuña) has been a ball all night.

[Heyward]

Wanna see the statcast data from Scheff on Winans. When he gets it.

[The Chosen One]

Considering the braves have been trying to reinvent Soroka to be more of a swing and miss guy, and are coaching Shuster and Dodd to get more missed swings, it's interesting they're letting Winans be the pitcher he is. I know that it's probably more they just need a spot starter. But still.

[UNCBlue012]

The umpire has brutalized hitters with terrible calls all night. Murphy has specific had balls called strikes two or three times.

[UNCBlue012]

Also, Billiam’s framing has been noticeably better this season.

[jsebe10]

That sorry ass hitter was sitting dead read on that slider in...that was a good pitch that would catch most lefties off balance. That MFer knew it was coming. Either he's god damn Pete Rose or he knew that pitch was coming.

[UNCBlue012]

Overall, strong performance from Winans.

Can’t fault him for the crappy hits from Frelick and Perkins.

[UNCBlue012]

Tonkin has been that dude

[GovClintonTyree]

Yeah, I thought he looked good. Loved the change. Real good command.

[WaitingFor2017]

This kid is already extremely annoying.

[thewupk]

Marlins lost again. lmao

[USMA76]

This ump is awful.

[jsebe10]

Good god Fox..that's typically a routine flat ball at the wall

[chop2chip]

That catch on Arcia was incredible. Frelick kid having a day

[UNCBlue012]

Ozuna has been robbed his last two at-bats lol

[drewdat]

Imagine if this team had average batted ball luck

[USMA76]

Tip of the cap?

[UNCBlue012]

Dear God. Tonkin’s second pitch (called ball) was a perfect strike. Umpire is a freaking idiot

[jsebe10]

No LH in the pen...let's see every LH scrub the Nrewers have lol

[bravesfanforlife88]

I feel like the announcers going to bust a nut if Frelick does anything else

[UNCBlue012]

This mid-ass rookie. Ugh

[chop2chip]

Frelick seems like a mid 2000’s Red Sox type of player

[MadduxFanII]

I want to be careful about what I say about Frelick. He has the look of someone who has relatives with various levels of connections to the mob.

[KOdawg1]

They have all the momentum and it's all because of this kid

[UNCBlue012]

Brutal luck, again.

[drewdat]

When Harris walked, I figured we would line into a double play. Yep.

[Garmel]

Sick of the lucky bull****.

[KOdawg1]

This game has felt over for a few innings now

[The Chosen One]

They have all the momentum and it's all because of this kid

The only upside is they keep cutting to his sister jumping up and down cheering wildly in the stands.

[MadduxFanII]

This game is ending with a Frelick walk-off, isn't it?

[Garmel]

The only upside is they keep cutting to his sister jumping up and down cheering wildly in the stands.

Definitely some nice bounce there.

[UNCBlue012]

I truly will not be upset if the Bravos lose this one. It would be unfortunate, but bad luck doesn’t really begin to explain it. They’ve pitched well, played solid defense and absolutely demolished pitches. It’s just been one of those nights.

[jsebe10]

This game is ending with a Frelick walk-off, isn't it?

Certainly not with an Ozuna go-ahead whos 9 for his last 57

[MadduxFanII]

Olson got a little LaRocheadaisical there.

[USMA76]

Sure is nice to have the Brewers' perspective on pretty much everything from the unbiased Fox announcers.

[UNCBlue012]

I am an unapologetic McHugh fan. I just love the guy lol

[bravesfanforlife88]

This game is ending with a Frelick walk-off, isn't it?

Nah, Braves will win. Frelick will still be the guy fox interviews postgame

[The Chosen One]

Definitely some nice bounce there.

Found her game photos of her playing for Duke softball. Unfortunately she has her Instagram as private. Lol.

[Garmel]

Sure is nice to have the Brewers' perspective on pretty much everything from the unbiased Fox announcers.

I watched the Brewers feed yesterday and they were better balanced than this crew. No joke.

[MadduxFanII]

Found her game photos of her playing for Duke softball. Unfortunately she has her Instagram as private. Lol.

See that dial in front of you labelled "Creepiness?" I'm going to need you to turn it down by about 25 percent.

[KOdawg1]

This game was over when the rookie made those catches at the wall

[Garmel]

See that dial in front of you labelled "Creepiness?" I'm going to need you to turn it down by about 25 percent.

Yeah, commentating on a woman's looks is really creepy. lol

[USMA76]

I watched the Brewers feed yesterday and they were better balanced than this crew. No joke.

Interesting but I can't say I'm surprised.

[KOdawg1]

Wtf Arcia

[USMA76]

Yeah, commentating on a woman's looks is really creepy. lol

Brent Musburger, is that you?

[USMA76]

Wtf Arcia

Right play, bad throw.

[striker42]

Fat Joe is awful in anything resembling a high leverage situation.

[The Chosen One]

We couldn't handle two throws in that inning

[USMA76]

Sure would be nice if we could catch the ball in this inning.

[MadduxFanII]

FOX never really showed a good replay of the play at third -- I don't know if that was a bad throw or just a little bit low and Riley whiffed on it.

[KOdawg1]

Big game tomorrow.

Losing 3 series in a row would be less than ideal

[striker42]

Ozuna, Rosario, and Arcia are the three I don't want up right now. Geez.

[jsebe10]

Right play, bad throw.

Actually decent throw...pussy gloving from Riley. Scared to get spiked.

[UNCBlue012]

Phillies lose again

[striker42]

Ump doing some heavy lifting for the Brewers tonight

[jsebe10]

Ozuna, Rosario, and Arcia are the three I don't want up right now. Geez.

All 3 are plummeting fast.

6-3

Ball game.

[The Chosen One]

See that dial in front of you labelled "Creepiness?" I'm going to need you to turn it down by about 25 percent.

Meh.

Was just curious to see how cute she was.

Lauren Jbara is still my fave right now.

[UNCBlue012]

This may be the worst strike zone of the year

[The Chosen One]

FOX never really showed a good replay of the play at third -- I don't know if that was a bad throw or just a little bit low and Riley whiffed on it.

Throw was good enough. But it was also in the line of the slide.

I think Riley subconsciously moved early because he didn't wanna get spiked. It was a bang bang play.

[TURBO]

Who is Wall?

[MadduxFanII]

Um...hi, Forest Wall.

[The Chosen One]

Who is Wall?

We just found out in two pitches


Run Forrest Run.

[striker42]

Arcia is not a good hitter.

[The Chosen One]

Just steal home Forrest.

[striker42]

I predict a 100 mph out here.

[KOdawg1]

Acuña time

[drewdat]

I predict a 100 mph out here.

Frelick will rob a homer

[USMA76]

Frelick will rob a homer

Ronnie's goin' yard.

[jsebe10]

Zero confidence in Ozzie here...he will choke

[MadduxFanII]

Acuna's plate discipline is about 200 percent better than it was when he debuted.

[KOdawg1]

Not the worst thing in the world for the Brewers

[The Chosen One]

Albies gonna have no discipline and pop up on second pitch.

[jsebe10]

Good job Ozzie. Great AB there bud. Killing it from the left side. Thanks bud. Great job I'd

[KOdawg1]

This game was on Arcia.

If he just throws the ball to first or puts the ball in the air in the 9th, we don't lose

[drewdat]

Ball hits the ground and 3 people 10 times and travels a foot from home plate

[UNCBlue012]

Meh. Sucky loss, but mainly fluky. That excuse is getting old, but it’s the truth regardless.

[jsebe10]

This game was on Arcia.

If he just throws the ball to first or puts the ball in the air in the 9th, we don't lose

No...bull ****.

Ozzie
Olson
Murphy
Ozuna
Arcia

All abortions at the plate tonight. Just outright embarrassing.

[jsebe10]

Ozuna must be on the bench tomorrow. Jesus Christ

[KOdawg1]

No...bull ****.

Ozzie
Olson
Murphy
Ozuna
Arcia

All abortions at the plate tonight. Just outright embarrassing.

That's all true, but only one of those names allowed the go ahead run to score by being greedy and then turned around and left the tying run on 3rd with less than 2 outs the next half inning.

It's not 100% on Arcia but a large chunk of it is.

[jsebe10]

Tehran...6 innings 2 runs
Elder.....3 innings 6 runs...2 in the first and 4 in the 3rd...mark that

[WaitingFor2017]

Since the ASB:
Ozuna 2 for 26
Murphy 2 for 24

[striker42]

Arcia's regression at the plate isn't a surprise and it's a long way from over. Go look at his expected stats. They're not pretty.

He's gotta do better on defense than tonight. He's been good defensively this year and his defense continuing to be good is vital to keep him worth playing.

[striker42]

Since the ASB:
Ozuna 2 for 26
Murphy 2 for 24

Ozuna has sucked. Murphy hasnt been great but he's also been the unluckiest SOB you could possibly be.

[striker42]

Our defensive miscues have cost us 3 or 4 games since the break. We gotta tighten that up.

[UNCBlue012]

Ozuna has sucked. Murphy hasnt been great but he's also been the unluckiest SOB you could possibly be.

His offense has been fine. He’s hit the living hell out of probably 5 should-be homers over the last week that were outs and a couple more hits. Ozuna has been brutal.

[UNCBlue012]

Our defensive miscues have cost us 3 or 4 games since the break. We gotta tighten that up. yeah, I think the break mixed just caused the boys to slow down a little too much. They need to vamp it up again

[goldfly]

y'all acting like we were gonna stay scorching the rest of the year

everyone coming back down to earth (some worse than others)

and Riley is hot

we are up like 11 games

take a deep breath everyone

[thewupk]

Its just jsebe10 that's freaking out. He thinks we are close to losing the division lead for some reason.

[WaitingFor2017]

The Dodgers have gone from 10 games back of NL record to just 6 since the break.

As of now, the best record would get the winner of Arizona-SF while #2 would get the winner of Milwaukee-Cincinnati

Funny that the East teams have fallen off. None of those potential 2nd round teams concern me. All have major flaws.

[Garmel]

Can Hernandez throw enough strikes to be effective here in the Majors?

Dodgers are closer to losing their division than overtaking the #1 NL spot
