These are the WS innings the Braves have received from their starting pitchers:
2 1/3, 5.0, 5.0, 1/3, 2.0-which averages out to less than 3 innings per game.

For the record, they do not print tickets anymore. I mean, they were only $7,000 tickets…

Braves really needed something crazy to happen to break up the Asstros momentum a couple times.

Wish we knew a guy who had boots on the ground who could've, oh I dunno, run out there with his shirt off or something?

The real issue isn’t pitching it is Ozzie Albies being a black hole in the 3 spot
Dansby pulling off the ball at the plate, while taking a lackadaisical nap during a few ground balls being hit to him in the series, isn’t helping either.

I still like that the best two SP we have, will pitch in game 6 and a hopefully not a game 7.

Davidson has not pitched to MLB hitters since June 15, before last night. Braves had the lead before Minter crucially walked their catcher and woke him up.

They set up well with Fried and Anderson. Matzek, Smith, two days off. Left Luke out on purpose.

I forecasted that they would be fortunate to win one of the bullpen games. Those are a race to get a pitcher out of the game who doesn’t have it that night(if you only have a few in two nights who aren’t ”on,” you are lucky), before Houston bombards us in such an inning as the fifth last night, by having the best offense in the MLB.

It would have been nice to have been wrong, and watch Atlanta celebrate here.
Slow and steady wins the race and that’s Snit. to a tee.

An estimated 20k at the “home” watch party in the Battery on Sunday night….
If they opened up the stadium, charged normal season prices, and played it on the big screen, I'd go.

Probably too much to coordinate security and vendors for tonight, but it's a thought for next year's World Series away games.

Told my son prior to the game, Fried would go 8 and surrender 1 run. Braves 7-1.

Let‘s see if we can send that Astro bullpen into orbit for double digits?
