SEEMS LIKE I MISSED A FEW THINGS

Feel a little better about turning down tickets last minute

Craig Edwards

5:21

Just the pitcher batting in the first inning. No biggie.

and walking.

5:22

Really tough spot for Fried. Bases loaded is tough, but in the first inning, I'm not sure you can really prepare for that.

Derek

5:23

Okay so what is the most lopsided elimination game in history? Seems like that might be in play at this rate...

Kiley McDaniel

5:23

this is really insane

Craig Edwards

5:24

Funny you should ask. I don't know if this game is it, but in 1996, the Braves beat the Cardinals 15-0 in game 7 of the NLCS as the Cardinals blew a 3-1 lead.

Mo money, Molina

5:24

Bader defensive sub bottom 1? (half joking)

Ok, just got home from work, traffic was a bit hectic, but looks like I haven't missOH MY GOSH

Kiley McDaniel

5:24

do we know what the mercy rules are in NLDS games

A Guy

5:25

I guess it could end up being one of the best comebacks/choke jobs of all time though...

Kiley McDaniel

5:25

this question came 10 minutes ago

Craig Edwards

5:25

I believe the rule is that when you score 9 in the first, you say, MERCY!

5:26

Lou

5:26

The Braves need MadBum.

Adam

5:26

At what point, do the Cardinals pull Flarehty if they continue to extend the lead?

5:26

Anybody agree?

Pull Jack. Have him start Game 1.

Kiley McDaniel

5:26

i think all of their bums are mad rn

5:27

i'd go bullpen game here. i get that it isn't a great message to say that this game is now less important..but it's also 10-0

Craig Edwards

5:27

So you have to get 9 innings. NLCS starts Friday.

Derek

5:27

Kiley you may have missed the entire important part of the game

Kiley McDaniel

5:27

the important part was me not going

Dystopian Future

5:28

Ozzie Albies wasn't smiling when the camera cut to him, which means this is officially a disaster.

Kiley McDaniel

5:28

the real tragedy

Craig Edwards

5:28

ponce de leon and genesis cabrera can get a few each I would imagine. I think you could give Flaherty two innings if they are low stress and pull him.

5:29

Do you pull Flaherty?

Right now (1st inning) (33.7% | 63 votes)

In first three innings? (51.9% | 97 votes)

Let him pitch a normal game? (14.4% | 27 votes)

This is what happens when you ban the tomahawk chop. Without racism, their superpowers are gone.

Craig Edwards

5:31

correlation, causation, something, something.

A Guy

5:31

I think if you score 9 in the first you say "merci!"

Ouch

5:31

Scoring on a strikeout...this is really awful now

Craig Edwards

5:32

Now?

This is less devil magic and more satanic wrath, if you ask me.

Craig Edwards

5:32

Plus a Yadi groundout for the late-arriving crowd.

Dystopian Future

5:33

How hard is it to pitch as Flaherty when you have a ten run lead here?

hypo

5:33

If I was in the crowd I would leave now. Beat the traffic. Nothing left to see here. C-ya

Craig Edwards

5:33

He's probably still upset about game 2 so I don't think it is an issue for him.

Kiley McDaniel

5:33

it's also rush hour in ATL so maybe not beating the rush

Dystopian Future

5:33

I know it's already sort of garbage time, but that play by Donaldson was really beautiful.
