Being brutally honest, I don't think the Braves can stick with Davidson. His fastball is hitting 87 MPH, and his breaking stuff isn't great. Duvall stuck with the Braves plan of swinging at the sinking fastball early in the count, and BAM!!! It didn't work for Freddie, but for Adam... yeah, it worked pretty good.

Being brutally honest again... Swanson's defense in the WS has been putrid.

Tie game, Dansby error leads to 2 runs.

This is a big pitching change with 2 outs by Dusty - considering Houston's pitcher is due up to hit next inning.

Hmm, Snit does the same thing - replacing Chavez with 2 out, and the Braves pitcher being up next inning. I guess he's ok with Minter batting next inning.

After an IBB, Minter allows a walk with bases loaded to tie the game, then a 2 RBI single. 7-5 Astros. Snit with bad decisions tonight.

Well, this is gonna be a long game. Now's the time to take advantage of the Houston bullpen. They're getting stretched.

Tough loss tonight. Would have loved to wrap it up at home but it wasn’t meant to be. This team is resilient and has been all season. We have Fried and Ian if needed for game 7.
Maldonado came through for them tonight. Hopefully an unexpected steps up for us on Tuesday and gives us a celebration on their field.
Go Braves!!!

Tonight is really a moment of truth for Max. Whether it's fair or not, If he's really a number 1 starter, he has to come up big this game. Snit, please let him pitch the whole game unless his stuff is failing, and remember, he can hit, and he can run. He's not just a pitcher; hes a player. Give him this chance. Snit? I'm telling ya. No quick hook this time.

Agreed. He has had two bad starts in a row. For the most part, hopefully it was some minor adjustments he needed to make because he’s been great all year.
Hope he can go 6 or 7 innings before handing it over.
Let’s end it today.
Go Braves!

Fried is a good hitter but he’s no Babe Ruth or Zach Greinke.

I want to see him steal a base tonight. Really, I don't want them to take him out for a pinch-hitter if he's still throwing well. And I don't want them to make him bunt with 2 strikes.
