This Braves pitcher seems like he's throwing hard.

That replay at home and non-challengeable play at third back to back. Awful, but fucking hilarious.

Wow that's a bad inning for the umpires. I'd be fucking furious if I were the Braves. How has snitker not just gone out there on fire and gotten thrown out to make a point? You kinda have to at that point.

Heard about it second-hand, but apparently Chip and whoever he works games with were just madder than raped apes about the terrible umpiring and wouldn't let it go until, allegedly, between innings someone told them to chill ... like it was apparently getting to Hawk levels.

It's kinda funny thinking about Mr. 'base hit, caught out there' and 'Bruce Kim goes down' being properly salty during a broadcast.

Bad Javy is back.

Dude it was brutal. A wild pitch with runners on the corners... runner clearly in before the tag. Home plate ump who I was thinking had a pretty bad day calling balls and strikes is right in front of the play and blew it. I thought for sure it would be overturned but wasn't. I didnt think it was even really close. The next out at third was in my opinion worse. But no replay available.

Undeserving win but whatever. Thanks, umps.

That's how ya start a 7 game road trip, Almora continues to do what we all thought he'd do.. Produce and play GG defense.

Oh I saw it all ... I just meant I hadn't heard their 'version' of the events .... I've heard some of it since then ... non-Chip at one point basically said 'the brotherhood' was sticking together to not make the home plate umpire look bad (I mean .... too late and everything but, whatever).

I came to mention something similar. Guy want 1-3 with a walk and a double that eventually turned into the tying run.

Less than 50% chance he’s in the lineup tomorrow.

I’d love to see Joe give him a run of 20 or so straight games and see what happens.

He's a careee. 280 hitter against righties.. WTF is the oriblem?

Ron Wolfley posted an article sometime during the Marlins series I think where Maddon said he's personally invested in Happ's development.

Agree with previous posts. Got the breaks and they capitalized. Good win.

They needed this one with the brewers building a lead via their now annual act of pulling unicorns and rainbows out of their asses seemingly every night.

They lost tonight. Their lead is 1 game.

Brewers run differential is +5
Cubs run differential is +54

When your win differential is greater than your run differential you are definitely pulling unicorns out your ass on a semi-nightly basis. Every single player they take out of the dumpster comes in and has this all star type run. Look at freaking Saladino in his few games with them.

Yup.

Yep. That rocket he started the rally with against Vizcaino was his 2nd hit in the game.....both against right handed pitching. The myth he can't hit righties is just that. Maddon is an idiot if he doesn't play Almora every day in CF. Great hustle to turn his hit into a double too. He is an exceptional base runner. Needs to learn to steal bases better, but runs the bases exceptionally well.

I don't understand bringing the infield in early in the game in a scoreless game. It's dumb.

Did you know Kris Bryant is half Jewish?

That Almora guy is pretty good
