RHB were averaging. 190 against Garcia before this at bat. What a smash.

Hate to see it.

All these home runs are boring. I'm out.

Braves are mashing.

Brantley should be out. Fried touched the bag with his other foot. How did they not challenge that? Or it because he went past and he had to be tagged?

Supposedly, once the runner crosses 1st base, you have to either tag the runner or make an appeal on the bag. My question is if he had gone to tag Brantley, would the umpire had called him out? As it is, it's not like Fried waited around and then touched the bag. He rolled over after getting stepped on and touched the bag with his foot and the glove. That's a rule that needs to be immediately edited.

Apparently it’s based on intent:



So since there wasn’t an obvious intent behind Fried’s touch, it didn’t matter. If he went to tag, that would be intent and he’d be out. Does seem rather strange.

Braves are hitting DONGS

10:42pm and in the top 7th. Nice

@craig u pumped bro

Where is he btw

Savoring these last three outs. Glad these cheating pricks are getting put down at home.

Would it be too much to ask to have Altuve take one to the ribs on the way out?

live view of me right now:

The chants are getting louder lololol

Go away, Dusty. Take Wilbon with you. Chumps.

bad take. I was gonna say, **** the Astros but Dusty does deserve to win one at some point

And yet...

my neighbors are shooting off fireworks

I absolutely love Freeman.

Can’t really hate the braves for how they built that team. It’s not like the cubs or astros where they suppressed payroll to tank for high draft picks (like Bryant, Correa and Bergman). Braves retooled after some bad decisions, swindled fried from the padres, but otherwise, kept their star (freeman), and hit some prospect lotteries with Riley, acuna and Albies.

It's crazy bc the Braves tried to cheat, got caught, punished and still came out a couple years later on top

Well, at least the braves cheating scandal landed the pirates a prospect.

braves prob got punished harder for a lesser offense imo

Too bad they let Vazquez teach him how to be a professional ball player. Allegedly.
