[spystud13 2,371]

Jesus fuck. 

[GSU&UT 1,798]

Yep, turned that shit off. Congrats Cards, go win another WS while we suck shit through a straw 

[spystud13 2,371]

Wonder what the record is for most runs in top half of a go-home game? 

[youdunnf'dup 2,147]

Lol this is crazy 

[spystud13 2,371]

And there’s our answer, we have a new record. 

[TonyTexas 10,571]

Why even pitch Flaherty? Save him for game 1 of the NLCS

[GSU&UT 1,798]

Probably last time I'll say it until 2020, I'll be dead before Atlanta wins a championship

That would be some shit if they actually did it. 

[clapclapclap 9,000]

Houston would like to thank the 2016 Falcons and 2019 Braves for making a run at the Choke City crown. 

[spystud13 2,371]

Fucking defensive changes after top 1, that’s awesome. 

[Sbbruin 21,912]

Holy shit.  Just checked ESPN.com to get an update.  I thought I was hallucinating.  All with no home runs.

[Gut Wagon 8,118]

I was about a mile from the ballpark an hour ago. Evidently I was closer to catching a ball than the Braves were. 

[spystud13 2,371]

You don’t see the 10 5 0 line too often. 

[Gut Wagon 8,118]

Insurance run 

[Vic Mackey 47,313]

Good job good effort, Braves.

Following on gamecast, did St. Louis really just f-ing sac bunt with their #2 hitter in the first inning?

Why do you hate Augie?

[Beau Vine 54,878]

I've actually reached the point where I feel bad for the Braves.  Let's get this over quickly, and let's get Flaherty out now.  I even trust fucking Wacha with a 13-run lead. 

[Knoxtnhorn 6,165]

Geez.  I have a friend who is a fan of only the following teams:

Braves

Georgia Tech

Tennessee

US Soccer

He doesn't like the NFL, NBA, etc...

Got dam:

At work and just peeked at the score

Well at least he saw the Braves win a title in the 90s and saw Tee Martin deliver the first ever BCS title. 

[shakahorn 1,650]

Cards playing station to station and still put up 3 more.  Could easily have 2 more if they wanted to.  Reminds me of a little league game where it's so out of hand, the players go out as base coaches.

[Beau Vine 54,878]

10-run innings in postseason game: Cardinals, 2019 NLDS 5 at ATL (T1)*

Angels, 2002 ALCS 5 vs MI (B7)

Tigers, 1968 WS 6 at STL (T3)*

Athletics, 1929 WS 4 vs CHC (B7)

* Potential elimination game

[shakahorn 1,650]

there goes the shutout.

[Underdog 28,873]

Have the Braves gotten crossed up on starting time?

[MC Fresh Breath 4,074]

Geezus.  Work kept me from tuning in and now its 13-1 already? 

[Beau Vine 54,878]

Please get Flaherty out of there!!!

This fucking tool is going to pitch him 5 so he can get the win, isn't he?

At this point, 1 more inning doesn’t matter. His not pitching until game 3 on Monday

Quote

 

ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Braves have heard the complaints and are taking action to "reduce the Tomahawk Chop" for Game 5 of the National League Division Series against the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday.

The decision is a response to recent concerns voiced by Cardinals reliever Ryan Helsley, who is a member of the Cherokee Nation and expressed displeasure with the chop during Games 1 and 2 in Atlanta.

As part of their efforts, the Braves announced they will not distribute foam tomahawks to each seat for Game 5.

"Out of respect for the concerns expressed by Mr. Helsley, we will take several efforts to reduce the Tomahawk Chop during our in-ballpark presentation today," the Braves said in a statement.

The Braves also announced they will not play the accompanying music to the chant or use any "Chop-related graphics" on their scoreboard when Helsley is in the game.

 

 

 

Good job, guys.

He's a little bitch. If flaherty was going to hit him on purpose it wouldn't have been with that pitch.

I love watching Acuna play, but he's quickly turning into Manny Machado.  

[shakahorn 1,650]

Maybe I'm reading too much into this but I thought it was cool how Molina and Goldschmidt walked off the field surrounding Flaherty to prevent any shenanigans from Acuna who was probably around 3rd base when the inning ended.

I love watching him play, too. I don't love everything else. 

Also, I'm on board with you. Why keep flahrety in at this point?  Get him the chance for the win. Fine. But he's thrown 80 pitches. Gotten out of some jams. 7k's.  Go to the fucking pen.

He even let him bat after hitting Acuna.  You think any Braves reliever cares about getting thrown out of a 13-1 game for "protecting" Acuna?  This is incredibly stupid.  But Shildt's plan was to get 7 out of Flaherty, so that's what he's going to do no matter what, because that's THE PLAN.

Now it makes sense, get woke, go broke:

 

Mikolas, Martinez, Molina, Hensley, the Cards sure get their panties in a bunch a lot.
