The Braves offense are really making Lohse work tonight, he's thrown a whopping 41 pitches in 5 innings, that my friends is pathetic. And the bad thing, the Braves are going to see even better pitching in the playoffs.

I am going to stop watching, it worked last night
It's hard to fathom how a team like the Braves can look this bad. We've had a few streaks like this before this season.
well at least if the braves slip to the 3rd seed, maholm could pitch game 4 at home
Everything he's throwing is a strike. Lohse is in the zone. Sucks that it had to be against us.
The September collapse of our hitting has been ridiculous. I know this is a team that over relies on the HR and strikes out a lot and will be streaky, but this is absurd. Tonight our guys are going to the plate without a clue. They don't have anything resembling a plan.
I'd take a serious look at our hitting coaches. With the utter collapse of BJ Upton in his prime and a year from Uggla that made is disappointing prior years with the Braves look stunningly good, you gotta wonder if they're the right men for the job.
16 shutouts this year. That's a quarter of our losses come by shutout. And we're trying hard for number 17. That's totally unacceptable.
seriously though... all that stuff in the first inning and this is how the braves react??
what would this be, 16 shutouts, including 4 vs this sorry team? I can't really get a handle on how you can have the best record in the league and get shut out so much.

If we lose, I blame Fredi for not ejecting himself in spite of the umpire.
Forever Fredi
If we do lose out on homefield, look no further than our performance against two teams (Padres, Brewers) that we should have been able to handle and couldn't.
Game's not over, but I can't see us figuring out while Lohse is in there.
