And the Red Sox with an insurmountable 1-0 lead with a solo homer to Jackie Bradley Jr.

The floodgates are about to open.

David Price will have 20 strikeouts tomorrow.

7 innings with 1 run allowed should be enough to get you a win, but unfortunately, Teheran will likely have a loss on his record after tonight.

I've been highly critical of Teheran this season, but he was terrific tonight.

How do you not review that? Huge play in the game, and Freeman looked safe at second, and you're not gonna review it?

Does Fredi even want to try and win games?

Freaking embarrassment.

Of course Aybar strikes out LOOKING in a big moment. He strikes out a lot for a guy who the announcers have been calling a contact hitter all season.

But, that's twice this year Fredi has chose to not review a play that the replays show the play was wrong. I really hope we don't open the new stadium with him as our manager, but we probably will.

The Braves haven't fired a manager in my lifetime.

I know we're not a great team, but it still fires me up when Fredi does or doesn't do something in crucial moments of the game.

Freeman looked safe to me, and bases loaded with 1 out is entirely different than first and third with 2 outs. If Aybar strikes out, Kelly Johnson gets a shot with the bases loaded.

And if we're gonna comeback, we'll have to do it against Kimbrel.

And that's ball game. 1-0. We couldn't push across 1 fucking run.

Get ahead 1-2, then walk him. And a single to follow.

THROW FUCKING STRIKES, MAKE THEM PUT IT IN PLAY, BUT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE DO YOU WALK THE MOTHERFUCKER UNLESS IT'S BARRY FUCKING BONDS!!!

And just like that, the game is over in the top of the first.

3 run bomb.

3-0 Red Sox.

Gonna have at least 30 pitches in the first inning. Good thing Teheran went 7 last night.

Wisler should be embarrassed.
