We need to win tonight and tomorrow for home field advantage.

Home field would be nice, but Atl does have a better road record than home record.

Philly wins 3-0. Braves will need to win tomorrow and get some help to secure home field advantage.


Good ball game tonight for 7 innings, until Venters came in and stunk it up all over the place. Venters, Brach and Biddle have been struggling the last week or two, now is not the time to struggle.

While the latter is true, I want home field. Do not want to start a series in Colorado.

I'd also like homefield advantage. I'll never buy into the notion that a team has an advantage playing on the road as opposed to home.

Phillies lead 2-0, Dodgers lead 2-0, Rockies lead 2-0.


The Braves will have to start the NLDS in Colorado or LA, because they were too dumb to win yesterday or today. :banghead:

Gausman and Flowers have allowed 58 yr old Jose Bautista to steal two bases today. :banghead:

Phillies win 3-1. Almost all of the Braves hopes for home field advantage, are gone. :banghead: :banghead:

Expect a low scoring 1st game with Folty vs Ryu. Ryu's given up a total of 1 run in his last 3 starts (19 innings) and gives up very few walks. He has a crazy 1.15 ERA at home this season - in 54.2 innings. This may sound nuts, but I think Flowers is the key guy in the Braves lineup tonight. He crushes lefties.

It was a special season and now we have the off season to look forward too. Add more pieces and make another run next season.
