Game Thread: Destiny or History (Game 5 NLDS: Cards @ Braves Winner takes all)

[81usaf92]

Welcome to game 5.
Welcome to Suntrust Field where opponents celebrate in October.


Either the Braves beat history and the Cardinals two aces, or we repeat the same dang trend we have since 2001. I have a good feeling that we prevail this time. Maybe its just because I want it so bad, or maybe its the fact that our hitters did their thing vs Flathery in Game 2. We really need some change to the lineup to win this game, and at the very least Duvall needs to be in for Joyce. If Folty is lights out again I think we win, but I do think we seriously need to get to Flathery early.

If we win tonight, then we may win the NL.

Go Braves

I am hoping for a lead off homer by Acuna, then a couple of base hits and another homer by Donaldson. Take the wind out of them early.

Several people from the office are going tonight. I will probably be one of 3 people still in the office at first pitch.

Well we got atleast one part of our wish. Look who is batting 6th

Thank God! Joyce has been garbage. Maybe he will have better luck off the bench?

Calling it now. Donaldson homers tonight! Have your umbrellas ready!

Snit said yesterday he was really thinking about switching Duvall and Joyce. Glad to see he did it.

Go Braves!

It is bright and sunny here today. Shadows will play games with hitters and outfielders for first several innings.

Time to get it done and move on!

One of those infield hits was actually error on Freeman misplaying ball

on the bright side, I get to save some money by not paying for tickets to the NLCS. I get to focus on Alabama football now. This will most likely get worse before it gets better. Typical.

Turned it off. Rather listen to music than that garbage.
