Who says we can’t beat Flaherty? What if the bats come alive? We can hit anybody when we’re rolling. What if Flaherty doesn’t have it early and we get 4 in the 1st? Anything can happen


Nothing impossible. We went from controlling homefield. To big trouble.

Announcers said it all 80% of road teams winning game 1 win the divisional series

The last time we won a game 1 was also the last time we've won a postseason series. Back in 2001.

This has the typical feel of the Braves bowing out in 4, like they've done the last 4 times they've been in the NLDS.



Sad but very true

It's not that abnormal for the Braves to hurt a top of the line starter, and Flaherty isn't immune from the moment

But yeah, we certainly put ourselves in a tight spot

Plan definitely wasn’t for Luke to start the 8th.... perfect storm with Martin injured. Who knows what melancon would have done with a 3-1 lead in the 9th.

Didn’t address the bullpen in the offseason. Rears its ugly head in the first playoff game.

I never claimed losing this game improved our chances or didn’t affect the series. Just saying we still can still turn this around.

frick off with that shite. You must not have been watching baseball that long. Anything can happen. We have a good lineup. But sure it’s so ridiculous to think we can score some runs.

Martin getting hurt, just crazy. Hoping he isn't done, but that seems unlikely.

Wish him luck in free agency, the trade mostly worked for us

Should've been Newcomb. I don't care about matchups, he was the better option than Jackson.

The Braves need front line starting pitching that can actually go 7-8 on any given night. The bullpen has been a nightmare all year. No surprise here

It could happen, but it’d pretty damn improbable. I’ll be watching, and swinging my tomahawk either way.

Waiting for game 3 for Soroka was questionable, but DK didn't hurt us tonight

Not making it through the 5th wasn't ideal.

The Cardinals don't hit when Flaherty pitches.

Y'all look that up, just one of those things.

Snit overmanaged the hell out of this game, too.

Going into the 9th of a 3-3 game, we only had Billy Hamilton and Josh Tomlin available

Bullpen choked a big dick today, not surprising
