Go Brew Crew

In a year when the Sox aren't in it, I'd be rooting for Milwaukee, but they're the last team I want to face in the World Series, so I'd prefer Atlanta win this one.

A lot cheaper to be a Brewers fan. Atlanta tickets likely cheap as well.

 

Fried dealing. Hope this series goes all 5

The Braves are bad.  Loss a run because the 3rd out was made before crossing the plate on the sac fly.

 

SMH

Joc Pederson 3 for 3 in the series, 2 HRs, 4 RBIs. Braves up 3-0, after the Brewers failed to take advantage of a rally the top half of the 5th.

Counsel will be questioned for pulling Peralta after 4 IP, 57 pitchers, for Dan Vogelbach, a three outcomes type. Houser, who pitched well in Game 1, has been shelled since coming in.

Joc needs to be starting at this point. He is way too good in the playoffs. 

Braves lead series 2-1

great defense matters

Brewers have to actually score to take advantage of their stellar pitching.

The crux of baseball.  You either have elite pitching and no offense, or an elite offense with no pitching.  Go figure.

Go brew crew! My 2nd fav team 

Counsell just used Hader in the 8th to get thru the heart of the order and he gave up a bomb to Freddie Freeman.  Interesting

Freddie Freeman…hall of famer 

The Brewers also didn't really have any competition for the division in the entire 2nd half of the season, much like the Sox.

2 years. 10 combined Central teams from both leagues. All exited in their earliest round played. 

These playoffs have really sucked but at least the Brewers lost. 

Atlanta was probably a lot better than their record since their run differential was actually really good. They were probably more like a 95 win team than an 88 win team. Their pitching got hot at the right time late in the season and their deadline moves actually worked out. They did all of this without Ronald Acuna. 

The only series I didn't want to go five looks like it will (Los Angeles). Milwaukee was the last team I actually liked which remained alive. 

I don't like any of the four remaining teams if Los Angeles advances. Still hate Boston the most of the remaining teams.

I don't really follow the NL but I was surprised to see some "experts" pick the Braves to win it all because they had been quietly playing outstanding ball in the last month.
