Honestly these Cards are the weakest team we met during the postseason after 2001.

Good grief, let's score one run for this guy. He's been amazing.

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...

And one on with nobody out... I wish.

Folty controlling his emotions is key. He can very well falter or dominate (and he did both things this year, right vs the Cards). We will figure this out, if pitching keeps us in the game.

So who got the L in game 1? If nsacpi got the loss, then The Choosen One must admit being a bad manager, for keeping him in the game despite a high post count...

Honestly, what I have seen are two teams that didn't execute well. Both have been on the edge of disaster many times, both missed many chances, and both had good and bad luck throughout the game. Pitching wasn't great on either side, in general - not the kind of pitching that wins championships...

Now what? Fried?

Well then that ball on the other side of the net was our break maybe...

Yes? Didn't seem so in the replay...

Molina not catching that ball is our break. Come on guys!

LOL guys. I'm as unhappy as you for never winning a postseason series in almost 20 years. But reading this thread it looks like we are losing 6-0 in an elimination game... it's 1-1 in game 1, don't panic just yet...

Mine was a question. I'm always hopeful.

Have we ever won a NLDS game 1 in the 2001-2018 stretch?

I think we have been the underdogs for a while now. Up until 2003, we went to the playoff as the favourites to win (at least) the first series, but that was not the case in 2004/2005/2010/2012/2013 (maybe in 2012, but that was one game). This doesn't justify exiting all the times, as in my...

Being the underdog is cool, less pressure on the team. The only regret is all the injuries we have, very similar, unfortunately, to 2004/2005/2010. Game 1 is so important in a short series, we lost it since 2002, and look at what happened. As always, playoffs are a crapshoot, I wouldn't give...
