GDT 8/28/22: Braves @ Cardinals - The Rubber Match

[bravesnumberone]

Another New York Met hit.

 

[USMA76]

To be fair, this is a team that has no shot at the WS.

Probably but for tonight it's irrelevant. He has to beat the team that's in front of him.

 

[bravesnumberone]

I wouldnt bet on them winning it but as Cy said, never bet against the Cards and their Devil Magic in October.

I was giving State a hard time for his earlier statement.

Another New York Met hit.

Maybe there's something to this soft contact/get lucky approach. What's the old saying, "it'll look like a line drive in the box score tomorrow?"

Espn announcers talking about sunsets and sheet. There's a baseball game

Joe Morgan would straighten those ****ers out.

 

[msstate7]

Swanson, you are not having a good night

 

[bravesnumberone]

And now Dansby goes swinging out of shoes trying to pull the ball 600 feet and beats it into the ground for the 500th time. So much plate discipline.

 

[msstate7]

Olson, give this old dude an STD that's fatal

 

[USMA76]

Swanson, you are not having a good night

Hard to tell when you've only been in the batter's box for about 30 seconds total in two at bats.

 

[zbhargrove]

Ooo boy this ump so far… terrible

 

[bravesnumberone]

The first pitch to Olson was not a strike but was called one. The 0-2 pitch was in the exact same spot. Called a ball.

 

[jsebe10]

God damn the curveballs.

Trying to pull every thing again.

 

[jsebe10]

They have more fckn problems with that in game mic’d up than they do with actual interviews….that’s every game espn does

 

[USMA76]

Great to hear Snit stroke the Cards' already hyper inflated egos by calling St. Lous "baseball heaven." Gag

 

[CyYoung31]

Cone just called Arcia Alcides Escobar.

 

[zbhargrove]

Lol Arcia not Escobar

 

[bravesnumberone]

Cone can't contain his excitement about a curve that started above the zone and stayed above the zone.
