And just like that, the Braves double their season offensive output...

Jeff tries to get out of sax full jam...


...and can't do it as he gives up a triple 3-1 bad guys

It's been so long since we've had a non-PV moundshattery from a SP that I don't know what to do....

The suck thing is that our rotation set up for Sammy-PV-Stratton. This is the game we HAD to win....

Really would like to see Suarez over Stratton. Suarez has put up better numbers.

I have full faith in you tz. You will figure it out.

#shitshow.

Let's just make sure we eat in to our bullpen early in the series, Sammy....

This is a 4-game set, not 3-games. We still got Bum to come. And the Braavos are the worst team in baseball. We should win AT LEAST 2.

I think the best possible approach by our hitters now is to swing early and try to hit the 6 run homer.

Good point; I forgot this was a 4 gamer. Assuming this is a lost cause, where do you see that second win coming?

It works every time.

Aaaaaaaand, an 11 pitch 4th inning. EXCELLENT! Now, Sammy, please ensure you don't go deep in the game by phuking around with long counts and walks.

 

[tzill]

64 pitches to record 9 outs. Out - phuking -standing.

This is the Braves. I wouldn't be surprised if the Giants win both.
