    Would it be so nice to just pull out a 7 or 8 run inning here

    why did we take out garcia after soler instead of before soler? dude's been on fire.

    this isn't on garcia... it's on dusty and the offense imo

    Soler didn't check his swing either

    Call could've easily went the other way

    You can’t make this up. That homer happened on the 42nd pitch. Smh

    jackie Robinson( who actually wasn’t the first blk player to play in the majors) wore 42. Chadwick Bozeman who played Jackie Robinson died at age 42. On the show Martin in the 90s Martin and Gina lived in apartment 42

    the n word in gematria equals 42.. maybe I’m wrong again and the braves win the series 4-2. But I doubt it

    Second time in two days we find a way to create trouble out of a bases clear two outs situation and get curb stomped.

    Lol. Freeman/Solar/Albies hit. Correa/Gurriel/Apvarez/Tucker cant even get it out of the infield.

    When was the last time we hit a homer? Not a bad season but this **** is over.

    It comes down to bad pitching. Walking hitters. Throwing fastballs down the middle 0-2. It always adds up. Just insane.

    Not luck at all. That was all Garcia throwing up absolute meatballs. The only batter that wouldn't hit that would be Correa because he loves staring down meatballs.

    Was that before strike 4/5 that he got squeezed on?

    Don’t forget the Astros thrive in situations like this because we are seasoned

    Other than Altuve no one has even managed hit a HR... while the Braves offense is hitting it out the god damn park every game multiple times

    Ump calls so inconsistent.

    He definitely got squeezed. But the exact two pitches he threw for a hit and homer were meatballs.

    We can blame the umps but Garcia didn't have to throw something right up the middle for a struggling hitter to square up.
