With the Twins officially out, I'm full on the Dbacks bandwagon. I love an underdog

Really hoping Philly pulls this out tonight because a game 5 in Atlanta doesn’t sound very appealing.

Atlanta has a decent shot of forcing a game 5 with Strider on the hill, but the bats still have to wake up. Philly is on fire and Bryce looks as determined as ever. Hoping for a great game either way, not much drama in last night’s beatdown.

I’ve never been for robo umps but watching this moron already with 5 missed calls in 1.5 innings is slowly changing my mind.

Looks like they have no intention of giving Harper anything remotely close. Bohm is going to have to be the guy

Very smart approach. I would stay away from him when at all possible. Make someone else step up and beat you. Phils don’t look intimidated by Strider right now, hopefully he starts mowing a few down or the Braves will be cooked.

If they would have used that approach yesterday, this series might look a little different tonight

Phil’s continue to get runners on base with ease, Braves continue to look lost.

That’s a tough one because if you don’t advance you have two outs and need a hit to score. Rolling the dice to get one across by going all out is a calculated risk right there.

Every Phillies AB is competitive whereas Braves look incompetent.

Truth. It’s like they’re starting out on the ropes.

Has anyone told acuna if he runs hard to 1st it puts more pressure on the defense?

Great full count pitch there to Acuna. Suarez is killing it with location, Strider’s command hasn’t quite been there. It feels inevitable the Phillies are going to break through first.

Braves offense is incognito.

How bad are the ball/strike calls in reality? On the game cast they look bad…

Exactly. I was referring to the Braves hitters. It’s like they’re desperately trying to come back from being down 3 runs.
