Braves need another comeback already. Folty gave up a 2 out walk then a double, 1-0 dodgers.

Kurt came up huge! Pinch hit single in the 4th for Folty and it's 2-1 Braves!

Snit messed up and left Venters in too long, got base runners on then brought out Brach (another bad idea) and he sent them home with a hit by a dodger, Braves down 3-2. Come on Fried let's hold them there! And hitters have to make another comeback.

Camargo with the diving catch to get out of the inning. Snit definitely misstepped there to give LAD the lead back. Fecking Flowers has had two poor ABs today first with one out runners on 2/3, then one out bases loaded.

Well fork... Machado ate Sobotka's lunch money on that one. 6-2 Dodgers.

Yeah bummer, they brought Sobotka in to pitch the 7th inning just like last night with totally different results.

Too many mistakes today. They've gifted is a few but we've failed to take sufficient advantage. Should not have let the bases loaded get away from us... Probably should have been able to convert that into 2 runs... With that the mistakes wouldn't have hurt so much.

At any rate, we've got to find a way to get our pitchers to control the ball better... Way too many 2-0, 3-0, 3-1 counts issued... Which has led to way too many walks. Learning experience I suppose, but just painful to watch. Curious how many of the LAD runs were a result of walks and/or errors.

Damn I thought Duda had that homer but it was foul. One inning to go last chance this year Braves.

Season's over, bummer. Had a fun one watching them. Hope for the best next year, and they won the division this year and put up a fight in one playoff game. Nice work by the Braves!

Forget Harper. I just want pitchers that can throw fricking strikes. Holy hell man.

Great season, and better than predicted, but we need a major league pitching staff to get any further.

I'll bitch and moan about this series (and particularly the missed chances to bury the Dodgers tonight) but this was one hell of a fun season.

It also showed how far the Braves are from being legitimate contenders. There is a shitload of work to be done this offseason.

I don’t see liberty media letting the braves go “all in,” but there are plenty of solid options out there. If we could somehow get Kimbrel back, that’d be huge.

Isn't the Braves' revenue independent of LM though?

Yes. The guys at Talking Chop did a good piece on the relationship before the season.

We most likely attracted some decent players. I like it
