The first base ump calling Charlie’s third strike swing a ball was very helpful. It was a very nice donation to the Braves’ win.
Blevins was smart to pitch around Hoskins, he may suck vs righties but he can be tough on lefties when on his game.
Seems that the Braves’ grit and clutchness overcame Kapler’s analytics
Some fine writing by our boy Mark Bowman:
“Once Riley cut the deficit to one with his double, there was certainly reason to believe something special was going to happen. McCann has repeatedly said he returned for moments like these and his teammates appreciate the fact his upbeat approach has further nurtured the never-say-die approach that helped the Braves win the NL East last year.”
