    Do you think we go 6 up 6 down?

    This feels just like Game 7 of the 2019 WS. We had the game in hand until the 7th.

    Yeah. I couldn't imagine how it felt to be a Red Sox fan after what we didn't in that 9th inning... And then the other game late.

    This is bad though. 3hrs later... The meltdown.

    Only bring one out ... I'm hopeful ... But our bats have been as bad as it gets....

    Great game by Greinke though.

    We were all wondering when Dusty would screw the pooch and it's tonight.

    Greinke should have been allowed to pitch 6 innings (I don't care what lame excuses you people give against it).

    It was all working perfectly to give our bullpen a big break. Set up for tomorrow to try and take game 5.

    But no, we exhaust the bullpen and apparently lose the game all in one big fell swoop.

    And this is why Dusty Baker has never won a World Series.

    I doubt it. But the problem tonight isn't a lack of baserunners.

    Score is 3-2 Braves. We will never be able to make up those 5 runs!

    And both times, Grienke probably could have gone longer.

    You can blame pitching or defense all you want but our offense hasn't shown up for 2 games so far.

    We’ll get some weak 2 out bullshit, then leave whatever it was on base.

    They were up 3-1 against Dodgers last series and they didn't choke.

    Nah, Tucker will get a base hit with 2 outs then Yuli will finish it off with a nice pop up to put us out of our misery.

    There's a reason these guys haven't lost at home in the post-season. They're cheating.

    Bases loaded, Astros batting: Joe Buck: "This would be seen as a huge victory if Atlanta escapes with only 1 run!" "Astros have struggled with men in scoring position all series."

    Bases loaded, Braves batting: "We haven't seen a catcher hit a grand slam in 80 years." and "We haven't seen a lead change in this series YET."

    The guy is insufferable and completely biased.
