Dodgers win 3-1, force game 7. The Braves have chocked in the last two elimination games, 5 and 6. Outscored 10-4 in those games.

I guess the moment is too big for them.

I continue to be positive but today is a must win or the end of the season for us.

I agree with ARod, Clayton Kershaw should be starting this game, even for only a couple of innings.

So much for "let them write their own narrative" like I heard.

Dodgers win 4-3, winning the series and moving on to face the Rays in the WS. The Braves choked these last 3 games, the offense didn't show up, outscored 15-7 in games 5,6 and 7. Acuna failed to show up for the playoffs, hit below .180 with 0 HRs and 2 RBI in the NLCS. He struck out on nearly 40% of his at bats.
d'Arnaud and the bottom of the Braves lineup also failed to show up. The Braves beat themselves repeatedly in the series. Other than 1 HR from each, Riley and Pache didn't do much(no blame on the rookie, the Braves missed Duvall's power in the bottom of the lineup) and Markakis was pretty much an automatic out whenever he came up. He should retire.
The Braves need to learn to not beat themselves and they really need to work on not striking out so much.

I will say it, Atlanta sorts Coaching has been, well, very bad. I blame a lot of the luck of success on the Coaching staffs from all of the sports.
The blunder running the bases, Braves Coaching, unless there is evidence that the runners had been told to hold their position.
The psst Braves teams even under Bobby Cox (who I admire) was his fault many times too. Not being aggressive enough was his problem.
Georgia Football, Coaching, even Kirby is questionable, but is fantastic at recruiting.
Falcons for years have had poor Coaching. Look at the SuperBowl and how that came was managed.
