Baseball Braves 2023

That was one wild and wacky game ... Luke Weaver gets hammered in the first inning, Smith-Shauver bounces balls over the plate, McHugh hits the first two batters, followed by a single and a home run, blows a lead and gives up four runs in the bottom of the fifth, Acuna, Riley and Olson homer in the top of the eighth inning .... Braves 16 hits, 6 home runs, 10 runs and they still lost.

I was listening on the radio (something kids don't understand or appreciate these days) and they said that Schwarber's misplay of Riley's hit was changed to an error but the box score on ESPN shows it as a hit. Which was it? If it was an error, there were no earned runs in the 10th inning.
That's a tricky call that could go either way. Schwarber had to hustle for it, play to the wind, and decide to try and catch it overhand or underhand. I think the wind was not letting it fly as far as Schwarber thought it would. The ball did hit his glove, but it wasn't easy.
 
I love a good pitchers duel, I love games where teams throw hay makers like Friday.

don’t think I could watch 81 games of 12-10 if Truist played like Cincy

It’s the Coors Field of the East. I remember a game in CO where the Braves had a 10-0 lead and lost 11-10. Cincy is the same way.
I may have finiished off a few Coors by the time this is over.
 
What has happened to Atlanta's starters?
What do you mean? Atlanta took two of three on the road from a team that had won 12 in a row with two starters that began the season in the minors. Charlie Morton was what he's been all year. The Braves rank 7th in the MLB in ERA and 2nd in the NL to San Diego.

Max Fried and Kyle Wright are both on the 60 day IL. What the team has done given that is pretty remarkable.

Not complaining ... just curious about the staff and all the new names.

On the bright side, you boy reached 2,000 hits last night. I found it stunning to read that still leaves him more than halfway behind Pete Rose for all time.

Rose had almost become an afterthought to me.

The Twinkies travel to Truist to begin a three-game set tonight, all of which are nationally televised! Tonight's starting pitching matchup features Strider against Sonny Gray, who's been an absolute beast so far this season. It's an anticipated pitchers' duel, so expect a 10-9 type game. 🤓

Should we expect another 20 home runs hit during this 3-game series?

I see it's on MLBN tonight, but I'm at their mercy; quite often here in SW Fla., we get something else than the Braves game.
