04/21/19 DH Game 2: The Slump Buster

[weso1]

It's weird not being pumped about an incredible comeback because you just assume the pen is going to blow it in the 9th.

 

[Dalyn]

Come on!

I don't believe it. Minter has a 1-2-3 9th inning with 3 Ks

Huge win

Like Franco's jacket

Braves didn’t lose more than 4 in a row all of last year.

I have a feeling this losing streak is going to be a lot longer than 4 games. Just has that feeling of a real swoon. This is as bad as I’ve seen them since they started being competitive again.

LMFAO, this team is just incapable of losing more than 4 in a row.

 

[CyYoung31]

Okay, somebody has to ask:

Could this be our Baltimore game?

Braves' pen in 2nd game... 7.2 ip 0 er

Give you 10 buck raise if you can answer when our Baltimore game was for: 2005, 2010, 2012, 2013, and 2018.

 

[Acuña’s Bat Flip]

Had ‘em the whole way!

Give you 10 buck raise if you can answer when our Baltimore game was for: 2005, 2010, 2012, 2013, and 2018.

2005: Literally Baltimore game 2.0. Andruw hit a walkoff against the Orioles who had the best record in the league coming in. I was at that game and the ball landed right in front of me.

2010: Brooks Conrad GS vs Reds

2012: 9-0 comeback in Washington? Or Chipper’s walk-off homer off Papelbon in September.

2013: The 3 run comeback in the 9th in the 3rd series of the season in Washington is the only one it could be. Capped by Ramiro Pena’s go ahead bomb. Braves made a mockery of the NL East that year. It was never in doubt.

 

[Acuña’s Bat Flip]

That reminded me of rallying from 9 runs down to win at the Nationals 11-10 in extra innings on Paul Janish‘s bloop single in the 11th inning in 2012, I also remember someone hitting a huge HR in the RF bullpen but can’t remember who it was.

I must have gotten my games mixed up and it was Pena. Both games don’t seem as long ago as they were.

 

[Hudson2]

Wow what a comeback! Hopefully this starts a long winning streak!

 

[mossy]

What just happened?

 

[Braves1976]

Hat tip to Carle in relief for going as long as he did without giving up anymore runs. No chance of a comeback otherwise. Hopefully that gets him on track.
