We staring down the barrel another Braves choke job?
And there's another one of those "why even have replay then?" plays.

They’re not that good, so I can totally see Odorizzi shutting them down and Garcia in Game 7. That and the Astros’ bats getting hot, I would actually give them Astros a 40% chance of winning the series…

Ridiculous. And how is the best they could do for a SP a rookie who hasn't thrown for them since June?

Feels like the 2016 World Series…we’ve hit Anderson and Fried around, and their pitching after those guys isn’t great. They better take care of business on Tuesday otherwise they’re definitely going to choke (still don’t forgive them for adding to the MFYs rings)

I could be wrong here but if you're the home team and the home team jumps out to a 4-0 lead with your fanbase going crazy and you blow the lead and lose because you let Maldonado and Marwin beat you, that's asking for trouble. I think if the Braves were going to win the World Series they would have done it tonight. But they blew it. They let a golden opportunity slip away. I would not be surprised now to see the Astros come back and win the World Series. If they do Atlanta can put this series on a shelf with Super Bowl 51.

By my calculation the Astros championship odds bottomed out at around 4% after a leadoff out to start the second. On opening day they were about twice that I'd guess.

Brantley almost breaking Fried's ankle is peak Astros.

That was a Pujols Brad Lidge level 3-run shot from Soler

The Braves are the anti-Sox so far tonight. 7 baserunners, 6 runs.

How cool the game is gone from the Tv now because of some network problems. Good job Fox.

Brantley almost breaking Fried's ankle is peak Astros. Brantley isn't one of the dirty dozen and that was clearly Fried's fault, he missed the bag with his foot. Interestingly, had Atlanta reviewed that, Brantley would have been out because he didn't touch first before Fried was standing on it.

The Braves are serious tonight. They're playing like World Champions. Wish FOX would get their act together.

Interestingly, had Atlanta reviewed that, Brantley would have been out because he didn't touch first before Fried was standing on it. If they had I think he would have been ruled safe. Fried was clearly on the baseline/basepath obstructing the runner. Fried was lucky he wasn't badly spiked or didn't get his ankle broken.

You figure if the Braves were going to win Freeman was going to hit a HR in the clincher.

Is every body seeing this game? I have comcast and it is the only channel that is having trouble. I would give thema call, but I would just get the old run around with the robot operator.

I hope that some of Houston breaks up a bit after the season. You can see the advantage of having 3 #1 overall picks in a row. And not being the Orioles or the Pirates. lol

Yordan Alvarez batted a cool .100 in the World Series. Baseball!

Congratulations to the 2021 World Champion Atlanta Braves. Well deserved
How appropriate that the final out was a grounder from Dansby Swanson, the hometown guy, to their franchise player, Freddie Freeman. Very appropriate that the ball wound up in his hands.

Glad it wasn't the Astros or the Dodgers. The 88-win Braves beat them both. The Sox eliminated the MFYs and TB. I'll take it.
