    Why wait!! Freddie has had a lot to say about Acuna during the game talking to Snits.

    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

    Not that Snitker has been good but I just think the biggest impact on the series was the rotation alignment and that was a broader management decision. Handling of Fried this series was absurdly bad as was Soroka.

    I think the next half inning will tell us all we need to know about the rest of this game.

    This series is squarely on Freemans shoulders.

    Our best player and franchise cornerstone blew it.

    How Braves like.

    It’s been a great season fellas. Thanks for the good times! Even you, Enscheff. This is very likely a ****ty loss but we should have won Game One and Game Four anyways, so bad luck is just that.

    This all day long. Our best pitcher should have started game 1 not game 3.

    The next time Freddie hits one to win a game all of you should stay silent.

    Well, Freddie Freeman now has a legacy in Atlanta. He wont be remembered for his excellent in season work. He'll be remembered for not just not producing in the post season, but actively harming the team.

    Most first inning runs allowed in MLB postseason history. Another embarrassment for the city.

    I know a lot of you don’t live in the state and started following the Braves via TBS and such but this is Atlanta.
    This city is cured.
    I’m 39 and Have come to the realization that I will most likely never see one of my teams (Braves,Falcons,Hawks,Ga Tech) ever win another title.
    I’m an optimist by nature but if you’ve lived here
    any amount of time then you know what to expect.

    This is what happens when you don’t finish a team out. We had every chance. Hell....we should have won all four games to this point. Chance after chance after chance. Sometimes...you run out of chances. Cards have been lucky, BUT we could have easily taken this.

    I'll be sure to celebrate that regular season win the same way I'm going to be sad about this playoff loss.
