They always choke in the playoffs. This was a done deal last night. They don’t play small ball at all. Every one of them I watched hit was trying to hit it out of the park. Not how you win in playoffs. What a great season to get tossed again. Starting pitching isn’t playoff material either. Lots of holes covered up by the offense during regular season

Yep. Anyone that paid attention the last month knew we couldn’t beat the Phils, especially once Uncle Charlie went down.

Good pitching beats good hitting in October. And we had neither.

Yeah if they could only play small ball as well as the Phillies tonight.

This isn’t 1976, man.

But we don’t need small ball, we need some dawgs on the team. Philly is full of loud-mouth shite talkers that play with their heart on their sleeve. We’ve got a bunch of softass guys that look like they’re playing a Sunday afternoon round of golf at the country club. Zero leadership or fight.

I thought Acuna got that last pitch in the 7th from Kimbrel..he guessed right just out front of it a bit..

Philly was hot at the right time.

Braves will be back, they’re young - bring in that professional vet ala Brantley in HOU etc. to tie it all together..

How much would a Kershaw or Scherzer cost?

Hitting it out of the park was exactly how the Phils won.

Don’t get greedy. It’s real fricking hard to win the World Series and we just won it in 2021 and we’re built for the long run.

Speaking of choke, wasn’t it your old Manager Bobby Cox that used to beat his wife?

Phillies were swinging for the fences also, but they connected. Braves are just a sorry franchise.
