Giving up the long ball will kill us. Not sure we can pull this out even tho it is early. Will be very tough to put up 5 on Kershaw. Not the way to start this series, at all!

I know it's hard vs Kershaw, but the offense has to get going. 1 hit in 3 innings played for the Braves.

Medlen dominates all of September and he chooses tonight to choke?!

5-0 Dodgers, M Ellis RBI single with 2 outs in the 4th, time to go to the bullpen. Medlen struggling after looking great in the first 2 innings. Dodgers have 8 hits in 4 innings, Braves 1 hit.

Might as well pack it in tonight. We play all year to earn home field and it all gets undone in one night.

It's like last season in the 1 game wild card vs the Cards. Fredi started Kris that game, he looked good first 2-3 innings then disappears.

Really wish we had Hudson.

Ron Darling(one of the TBS announcers) just said last time Medlen gave up 5 runs at home, that 1 game wild Card vs the Cards last season, that I just mentioned in my previous post.

Medlen has shown that he isn't cut out for the playoffs. I just hope we can win games 2 and 3, I'm not really a firm believer in Freddy Garcia

SOB! Mac just missed a 3 run HR, Crawford makes the catch at the wall in LF. Mac missed a game tying 2 run HR in the 2nd. Damn! What could have been. :nonono:

5-1 Dodgers, C Johnson RBI single

Yeah, they have Kershaw on the mound and not Medlen. :-?

I hope that the Ayala back to back Ks were a momentum changer.

Post #938 » by **ATL Boy** » Fri Oct 4, 2013 2:39 am

ugh, I'm less confident with Elliot Johnson at the plate than I am with Uggla. At least Dan can hit a HR now and then

And in the field, when Dodgers scored their first two runs, some routine ground balls got past the slow moving E Johnson.

6-1 Dodgers
