That's the Braves roster for the series. I'm very surprised they didn't put Richard Rodriquez on the roster and did put Terrance Gore on it. I never even heard of Gore - I guess he'll just pinch-run. That probably makes sense to take advantage of the extra-inning rule with the guy on 2B - it's a big advantage to have a speed guy on base. But it puts a lot of pressure on him to not make a base-running blunder.

Missing out on a golden opportunity to score against a great pitcher in the first is not a good sign for the Braves. There's gonna be a lot strikeouts tonight.

Bottom.of the sixth inning and still no score. Come on Braves!

Brewers win 2-1. Morton allowed 2 run HR in the 7th. The Braves had runners at the corners with 2 outs in the 9th, and Snit chooses to hit Arcia with the game on the line. Joc solo PH HR in the 8th.

We must come home with a win today!

Rough game last night.
Last get the win today.

Really surprising Max got pulled after just 81 pitches, but maybe Snit was thinking it was deja vu - after Morton was so dominant through 6 the first game. It worked out fine, but Matzek's maybe the key in the pen, and he's been worked hard. Will Smith allowed the 1st 2 runners on - but then got it done.

Great pitching yesterday.
Much needed win.

I love the Pearls and Joc is October magic!!!
Great win boys! Defense and pitching has been fantastic. 2 runs given up in 3 games? Not sure I remember seeing that ever, awesome.

Joc! Ian! Will! Let’s go!

Not to mention our bullpen hasn't given up a run. Once again, Snit with an early hook on the starter, but it worked out fine. And Joc is an absurdly good playoffs hitter - more productive as a pinch-hitter than any of the starters.

Ynoa for game 4 - with Smyly ready to go 2 or 3 innings?
