I predict that Jason will be holding his breath for at least 8 innings. :)

If you had asked me at the start of the series I would have said Dodgers in 5. I am thrilled with how the Braves have battled in the series and won 3 games against a fantastic Dodgers team. Fried has kept the Braves in this one and the Braves have looked pretty good against Buehler. Would have liked to scratch out a run or 2 to put some game pressure on the Dodgers. If you had given me a scenario at the start of the series to be in a game 7 against these guys I would have jumped at it. And this one still isn't over.
Runner leaves 3rd early to be out and then your unhittable ace gives up 3 in the first in game 6 ain't quite as dramatic as a pair of blown 9th inning lead, but it comes close.
We are well on our way to finding the most Atlanta way to Atlanta this Atlanta team out of the playoffs. Sigh...
I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate being right.
I sent a text to my buddy after that saying we can't get a break when we get a break. Just seemed like one of those games where it just wasn't your night no matter what you did. I like our chances tomorrow if Anderson pitches like he has been lately. Fried got through plenty of innings so the pen should be ready. We've got to score early and put the pressure on them.
