GTD 9/15: FINISHHH the Nats

[USMA76]

Good piece of hitting there to get 2 in on that curve. And great play by Fried after to turn a bunt into a DP

Problem is, it was a day late and a dollar short.

 

[nsacpi]

Anibal making pitch.

 

[USMA76]

Just wondering--how can the hit by Turner be a "Baltimore Chop" if we're playing in DC?

EDIT: Turner just safe on the initial play at first and it looked like he made it back by about a cat's whisker on the pickoff play.

 

[Hulavol]

Regardless, hell of a play by JD

 

[USMA76]

One more thing, I would've preferred that the Braves not burned their challenge on a call that was very unlikely to be overturned.

 

[Hulavol]

Agee with you there- that wasn’t going to be overturned

 

[Hulavol]

Time for the DP grounder to Dansby.

 

[CyYoung31]

This is our game 1 starter?

 

[Freshmaker]

This is our game 1 starter?

Yes he has the most wins

 

[Heyward]

Fried laboring, not good.

 

[Hulavol]

Max having trouble throwing strikes

 

[USMA76]

"It's not like Max doesn't have good stuff but he's just missing with a lot of pitches."

I'm no expert but isn't throwing strikes part of having "good stuff?"

 

[Heyward]

Max doesnt have it today, pull him after this inning and take the L.

 

[Braves1976]

This is our game 1 starter?

nope, thethe isn't in charge.

 

[Heyward]

This is our game 1 starter?

It "should" be DK/Soroka in some order in games 1-2, then Fried/Folty in some order in games 3-4.

 

[UNCBlue012]

That’s two bad starts in a row for Max. Gotta be better, man.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

If Folty keeps looking good, Fried likely lost his starting job in the postseason in these last two starts by him.

 

[Braves1976]

ideally, you'd use Tomlin here but Snit used him last night so we are seeing rusty Walker kid instead.

 

[thewupk]

Fried needs to be skipped and then 1 start the final week b4 the playoffs. I want anderson.

 

[Braves1976]

It "should" be DK/Soroka in some order in games 1-2, then Fried/Folty in some order in games 3-4.

not vs the Cardinals, they own Folty but Teheran has been strong against them.
