Cervelli swinging away here?  Interesting.

Run expectancy (just *a* run scoring, not how many) drops by a little with a bunt, but that ignores who's coming up to hit
starting the runner got them what they needed, if not what they wanted

Braves may have to remove Martin from LDS roster possibly if this goes long to get a fresh arm for tomorrow.
Eric A Longenhagen
8:28
yep, Teheran?

What's the point of having Billy Hamilton of the playoff roster if not to run for Duvall?

If Martin goes off the roster he can’t return until the World Series right?
Eric A Longenhagen

Mhmm, obliques are tough to heal quickly but they can alter their roster before each series
8:31
Cards moved guys around so they avoid the pitcher spot for as long as possible. This is the kind of thing Edman's versatility enables.
8:33
That 1-1 changeup by Martinez was awesome, maybe the best pitch of the night

Announcers for Nationals-Dodgers TV are Ernie Johnson and Jeff Francoeur, if anyone's interested in that.

It still amazes me that the broadcasting crews from The Waterboy and Dodgeball would be better than any national MLB crew
Eric A Longenhagen
8:36
I've made peace with the fact that the broadcasts aren't for us. We're gonna watch no matter what. Love the Benetti/EP/Petriello nerdcast, would love a scouting version, but know that just doesn't move the needle for networks

How long can Martinez go here?  He has been a starter
Eric A Longenhagen
8:36
good question
8:37
maxed at 41 pitches hits year
threw 30-35 pitches a handful of times, I'm guessing that's the upper boundary
5 Run Homer

Chipper catching a fly ball is good content

Joe Davis & Orel Hershiser have been great for the Dodgers & love it when Davis is doign national tv work w/ Fox.

Davis frequently brings up stats like wRC+, WAR & FIP, while Orel is great at providing the old-school viewpoint without sounding like a whiny old man - he'd just say stuff like "this is what we used to do & this is what I think, but this is the rationale behind the (insert "new school" move here)"

yeah I dig those guys

Wow, that was some really good baserunning by Fowler
Eric A Longenhagen
8:41
Tommy Edman gets on top of a fastball at the top of the zone, grounder to RF for a 1B, Fowler first to third

Here on the east coast I was hoping the 5:00 game would be over and I could grab dinner between games, no such luck. The stir-fry is ready to go.

Hey guys, just got back from some much-needed dog exercising, so jumping in early.

walk to Goldy became foregone conclusion when Melancon ran 2-0

No margin for error now.

Never a dull moment in Cardinals-Braves games it seems.
Eric A Longenhagen
8:45
right, but you set up the double play
Ozuna's near the top of the league at rate of 95+mph balls in play
Dystopian Future
8:46
Marcell Ozuna in play, run(s) to left field.
Eric A Longenhagen

0-2 curveball left up a little tiny bit too much, hooked into lf corner for a double

1-2-3 top of 1st for Buehler
Ben Clemens
8:47
The Braves have gotten some good breaks on those rocketed grounders to third so far today; that was quite the reversal.
How many 5-3 double plays did they have today? 2?
5 Run Homer
8:47
Wait the bases are juiced again?
