This is a Victor González situation.  Treinen is almost certainly exhausted.  Dave Roberts is not good at this.

Albies already proven at the major league level

To my eye, his top hand just gets through with more oomphf from the right side, enables him to better handle fastballs.

He gets attacked with velo as a lefty

If you are the Braves, are you happy with just 1 more run this inning?

That 5-2-5-6 DP was about as bad as it gets for the Braves.

From today’s Sunday Notes column:

Cristian Pache shared a glass-is-half-full perspective on his 2020 season, which was spent almost exclusively at Atlanta’s alternative training site. The 21-year-old outfielder pointed out that he got 15 at bats per day against a variety of pitchers in live-BP sessions, which he feels helped prepare him for October.”

So Riley went to 2B on the wild pitch. That actually HURT the Braves.
I am rooting for the Dodgers

That double play was a -.101 WPA for the Braves.
The d'Arnaud DP in the fist inning was a -.090 WPA.

One thing I'll be glad for shortly: I'll be exposed to almost no TV advertising once the playoffs are done.

Per a Tweet I just saw, no Braves team has ever won a Word Series in a 162 game season.

Chris Taylor now batting for the Dodgers - Just a .161 BA this postseason, lowest on the team with at least 2 AB.

Wonder if they'll start Taylor here

When the Braves beat the Yankees in the 1957 World Series, Lew Burdette threw shutouts in Games 5 and 7. He pitched Game 7 on two days rest.
