GDT 8/30/18 THE NIGHT OF THE FOLTY PART IV...HE LIVES!!

May be fine with Ozzie being meh vs LHP from here out for this season (but he's really going to need to figure something out LHH long term, even if it's just relying on batted balls luck like Camargo LHH by flairing balls) but Markakis was supposed to be one of the rocks, and if he's not going to hit well there's some trouble.

I expect Freeman to start coming around now but I think Markakis is just going back to normal.
 
#Braves' Folty said ump wouldn't give explanation for balk: “All I did was spit...Just a tough situation at that point. Especially when the next pitch was a ground ball to 2nd base...I’d take it like a man if I knew it was a balk, but in that moment I really didn’t do anything.”

He's right. It WAS not a balk, anyone who says otherwise is a dingus. In the end, it cost us the game.
 
Few things: Duda put a charge in that ball to RCF. I like that he was ready with his new team right off the bat. Didn't think there was any way Almora got there.

Also- Albies has to get that runner over to third when you got a guy on second with no outs. The K there was a killer. Those ABs need to be productive. If he's so gung ho to swing at everything there, next time I'd almost call for the bunt to make sure that guy gets over.
