    How does a Cardinal make an altar boy cry twice ?

    What is knocking sound a Cardinal’s car makes?

    I think we get 6 shutout innings from Soroka today. He matches up well against this lineup.

    They thought Folty was nasty and he was and then some. The youngster have an arsenal of pitches.

    I think we will win unless Snit does what he does and manage like an idiot.

    I’m here, and this might be the worst decision I’ve ever made. Naturally, I don’t expect them to win, so it was probably a waste of driving 4.5 hours when I have to be at work at 7 am tomorrow. I’m also not getting any service at this bar, probably because of my Braves gear.

    I don't see a clear edge for the Braves as most do here. A rookie on his first postseason start is never a big advantage over a veteran, whatever his stuff. Of course, I hope he can settle down as soon as possible and we cruise to a win.

    The fact we would break the curse of always being behind in NLDS since after 2001 is another thing that makes me dubious. I believe, but always have that feeling that, in the end, something will prevent us from winning. Winning tonight is like climbing a high wall.

    Still regretting for how game 1 unfolded.

    A lot of well reasoned and rational thoughts based on chicken bone readings and feelings.

    Soroka’s RH sinker matches up well against this RH lineup. These are evenly matched teams, and the biggest thing we can hope for is Snit suddenly learning how to use the roster correctly.

    But, what you’re not considering are curses and destiny. The outcome of this game has been predetermined since ancient times.

    Rain delay doesn’t favor Braves. Anything shortening Soroka start is detrimental

    Wait. She just described Freddie Freeman as someone who "rarely speaks, but when he does everyone listens." Surely she meant Markakis? Freddie is over there chatting with umps, players from other teams, fans who happen to sit within 20 feet of him, pigeons that land on the field...
