GDT: NLCS Game 6: Braves vs Dodgers Maximum Effort

[Metaphysicist]

How the F is our best PH option Panda ?

Yeah, this cannot be possible. I refuse to believe.

 

[CyYoung31]

Biggest surprise of the game: Panda had only faced Kenley Jansen 4 times before that AB. How is that possible?

 

[msstate7]

Well treinen, Baez, and jenson have pitched 2 straight days. May bite them tomorrow. I'm still sticking to Acuna will win a game this series, and what better one than #7? #chopon

 

[jsebe10]

This team is fckn dead In the water....Thwy won’t compete at all tomorrow.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

Folks are going to cry and misspell curse words like little toddlers but...

The Braves have battled the best team in baseball to game 7 of the NLCS.

Looking forward to another night of entertainment.

Except they haven’t battled them to a game 7. They have crapped down their legs two games in a row and now have a game 7.

 

[AJonesATL]

Just not our night. Not a great offensive night but also not as bad as one run. Well...that's what 3-1 leads are for. Lose 2 in a row and still have a chance. But if we are going to win this it needs to be with the bats not taking luck into chance. Need some homers tomorrow. Need Acuna Freeman and Ozuna to give you good AB's every time

 

[VirginiaBrave]

I told y'all nothing was done after game 4. They have more depth. Sickening as it is, it is undeniable.

BS. They will show up. Braves 7-5

We simply need more out of the bottom of the order. When Duvall was going well, he helped lengthen the lineup.

Riley hit a couple well but that strikeout in the 2nd was a killer.

Going to need to play a clean game tomorrow to have a chance.

 

[Metaphysicist]

Meh, yesterday was supposed to be a gimme for them and we made a game of it for quite awhile and this one could have gone our way given a few slightly luckier bounces. Pretending like we haven't even been competitive is silly.

 

[Strike3urout]

Really proud of the effort the team has shown, but there‘s no way they win game 7.

 

[Tapate50]

Tomorrow is 50/50 and they can’t get that lucky again.

Would they throw Urias on short rest?

Fried going deep tonight to let us rest the majority of the pen was huge. I don’t think we have had a postseason starter like him since Smoltz

 

[salmagundy]

There is no shame for or on you Fried for your effort this game. You did your job above and beyond.

The shame is on the roster selection requiring Riley to be used every game, Panda is/was useless(why was he on the NLCS), requiring Neck to be used every game after Duvall went down.

I don't know who would have been in place of Panda. Ender would have been worse.

 

[Tapate50]

That start from Fried reminded me of his start in Miami. They rocked him early but he ended up going 7 or 8.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

On Riley dude is only in his 2nd season, and right now as constructed the Braves can thrive with him getting a hit per night for the next four seasons playing solid defense.

 

[VirginiaBrave]

Really proud of the effort the team has shown, but there‘s no way they win game 7.

Uh, it hasn't been played yet. So yes there is a way to win.

 

[Tapate50]

We hit piss missiles all night and got nothing for it. Doubt that continues

For some reason I got Melky Cabrera flashbacks when Pablo was pinch-hitting
