    Is Alan Porter the new Sam Holbrook?!?



    All he had to do was get this easy foul ball call right in Game 1 and the Braves would have gone on to sweep this series!

    1 week of beating this drum and you’re still wrong. How can you tell from that **** angle?

    I’m not beating a drum. I’m simply stating facts! The baseball is closer to the inside of the baseline than the 1B bag. There is no way possible that ball was fair and I’m not the only poster on here who closely examined it multiple times and has said that it was a foul ball.

    Don’t blame the umps here. If properly managed the Braves either sweep or win in 4. The fact that we even had a game today is on Snit

    That ball appeared to be foul, but I'm not sure that angle is definitive.

    Baseball has a huge umpire problem. Has for years. When they let guys like Angel Hernandez keep his job, you know they really don't care about correct calls.

    Braves stranded the bases loaded in back to back innings, stranded Acuna on a leadoff double and triple, in Game 4. None of that is on Snit. Snit has his faults to be sure but he's actually not even close to why the Braves lost this series.

    Wasn’t neck and MAC part of those failures?
