    Man, this offense really has to kick into gear. I hope Miceli can last. Why did they bring Lidge in so early?

    Ya know, if the Braves are gonna subject the whole world to that irritating chop, they should hand out real tomahawks to make it interesting.

    This is reminding me of the Walt Weis game big time.

    But this time is going to be different!!!!

    this is a much better example of playoff baseball. Yesterday was just too easy...

    doesn't mean I have to like it though..

    If we win this one, I'm throwing some cash into the tip jar.

    Won't you join me?

    Exactly... which is why you can't just manage it like a regular season game.

    = sacrifice bunts all the time with 2 men on and nobody out.

    and unconventional uses of "closers"... the one inning save was only invented in the 80's by Tony LaRussa.

    If the Astros lose, they still leave Atlanta with a split, which they can certainly feel good about.

    But if they win, it's got to totally demoralize the Braves.

    The good, or bad, thing is...whoever wins this game will have BIG MO in their corner.
