MLB Playoff Thread

[DFSNOLE]

I know the two divisional playoff games are supposed to be regular season games but in reality the playoffs began today. I don't think there's a team in the National League hotter than the Brewers. Big win for them today.

Rooting for the Rockies in the second king. I've always hated the Dodgers since the Braves and them were part of the Old National League West. But now they're even worse with all the money that they have to spend. Seeing them go out early would make me feel good.

Watching the Brewers & their deep, talented and exquisitely well-managed bullpen, it's difficult for me to imagine how the Braves could deal with them successfully over a 7 game series.

I told my son that the Brewers pen was ridiculous. Then I told him the Braves pen was too but in the more traditional meaning of the word.

Looks as if the Braves will be playing in Dodger Stadium Thursday.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Yep.

When are they announcing the game times for the NLDS? Is it after today’s wild card game? Imagine Thursday/Friday would be late regardless.

You know the Atl v LA game will be late. My guess is no earlier than 8:30 edt.

I don't know if it's the cameras or what but it looks dark in centerfield.

I find it interesting that Milwaukee's listing today's starter as "bullpen".

I'm going to say Yankees-Brewers in the WS. God, I hope I'm wrong about both teams.

If not the Braves, I wouldn't mind the Brewers. I group the Yankees and Dodgers together as teams who can buy their way to a pennant and wish them only bad luck.

I was more on the Yankees. I say the Brewers b/c I obviously want Atlanta to advance. A Boston/Atlanta WS would be fun.

Christian Yelich is a baby-faced killer!

 

[DFSNOLE]

This looks like the Rockies rally against the Braves.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Not the start the Braves were hoping for.

 

[NoleLizards]

As Skip Caray used to say...an inauspicious start.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Folty just needs to get an out.

Nasty!

Got the split screen going.

HUGE!!

Escaping the 1st with only 1 run is helpful

Especially with Puig swinging at ball four.

The Brewers win on a walkoff single in the 10th.

4 K's...It's feast or Folty.

 

[DFSNOLE]

Btw, how lucky are Braves fans to have Costas and Smoltz as the announcers for this game? Two of the best.

 

[DFSNOLE]

The fastball for the BB was a better pitch than the previous pitch called a strike

 

[DFSNOLE]

Dammit.

 

[runkpanole]

Ugh

 

[DFSNOLE]

Folty was out of that inning. Dammit!

This ump is all over the place.

Eric Gregg flashbacks?

I said in the Braves thread that I didn't think Snitker shouldn't have Brach on the post season roster. Last night proved me right.
