That pitch was right down the middle, Ozzie just got under that. Not sure about that.

That changeup to Albies wasn't a good pitch, but he was probably timed for a fastball instead.
But anyway, it's pretty obvious that the Braves hitting philosophy isn't taking tons of pitches, it's swing at the first good strike you see. McCann made it fairly obvious, and Acuna's done it a lot (being VERY aggressive in favorable counts).
Ump isn't giving the edges of the strike zone to either pitcher, it appears.
Let's see if we can keep Robles from looking like Mike Trout this time.
Good pitch Mike
Kinda expected the high PC by Soroka in the 2nd. After 7 pitch 1st, he paced the dugout the whole time the Braves batted in the 1st.
This ump good lord
It seems a little early in Riley’s career to peg him as a platoon hitter vs LHP, but in a playoff season it might be the correct move for the Braves. He pretty clearly can’t handle anything moving away from him right now.
Chip: “That’s the first time I’ve seen Soroka wear that protector on his arm.”
He’s literally been wearing it since the game after he got hit.
FP just said he thought Robles was approaching Acuña status lmao.
Man this is just like game one. Hope they don’t hang an eighter on Soroka next inning.
Just can’t stop taking walks smh :facepalm:
Shanks is pissed.
Not the D I would have liked to see from Riley there
