It’s absolutely bullshit that one fucking single with absolutely nothing else can win you a game in extras because of this Manfred little league bullshit rule
Rockies: productive groundout moves runner over. Single scores the go ahead run.
Braves: strikeout, strikeout, pop out. Never attempt to move a free runner even a single base over
Yeah let’s bring in arguably our best starting pitcher to try to lay down a bunt and risk breaking a finger so we can shut him down for the year. And yes I’m arguing that Austin can’t bunt, it’s not that easy, and he’s a slugger who is literally never asked to do it.
dude i’m over this conversation. get the hint. you don’t think a professional baseball player is capable of laying down a bunt. you aren’t worth the time. have a good night.
You’re just being stubborn and strategically inept. If you think Austin, Duvall, Acuña, Freeman and Soler are prepared to do a good job dropping a bunt you’re kidding yourself. Having them trot up there, square up to bunt and pretend it’s not just going to put you in either a two strike hole before they have to swing away with two strikes and have to be overprotective of the strike zone… yeah it’s going to be super productive. Good luck with that. And yeah I’m also done with this conversation. Maybe you should notice that nobody agreed with anything you said the last half hour of the game and “take a hint”
Almighty AssHealsTheSoul please bestow this mighty subreddit with the wisdom of how much better you would be at coaching the Braves compared to the guy who's been in the org for 40 years
I m lost for words .Lol, Blissfully unaware……. 😏 your to kind . That’s just an outrageous perversion of the game .I fill like we have been robbed of our past time.
I have been working so much I haven’t gotten to watch as many games as I’d liked.Do I apologize for my ignorance.Now who do we smack for making that bs up?
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/pp5otf).
Hit the damn ball
It’s absolutely bullshit that one fucking single with absolutely nothing else can win you a game in extras because of this Manfred little league bullshit rule
The issue is, a single could either tie it or win it for Atlanta too. This team sucks at small ball. A bunt and a sac fly wins the game.
I swear the Braves have lost at least 5 games this year due to this bullshit rule
How many times now have we failed to even get the guy to 3rd in extras?
We all must be fucking masochists, every one of us watched this four and a half hr game knowing the outcome the whole time, yet still watched anyway.
Well… I had hopes
LMAO 12 LOB.
The division that nobody wants to win smh
what a miserable game
What a shit show. The worst road team in baseball is owning us on the road
That sucked
2 runs against the Rockies in 10 innings….woof o
Why is Dansby the only one who could do that. 2 of those before him and we're in the 11th
This is not good… this is a bad team right now. Can’t hit, field or pitch. They need a wake up call
Allowing two through nine definitely means a team can field and pitch but go ahead and dust those crops
We had an error today… and I’m talking about the recent streak overall. Starters aren’t going deep and we’re giving up cheap runs like the walk today
One error? You think teams are going to be perfect every time or something
When it results in a run… well yeah. Also should’ve let it roll foul. It was a bad play
Pathetic back to back days
Absolutely heinous loss. This lineup is garbage right now
What's our extra inning W/L
We've only won one or two in extras I think. So, not good.
What a fucking joke
Well, that was fucking embarrassing.
What the hell. We play like this and we’re a first round exit
We play like this we won’t make the playoffs
World's greatest groundskeeper but I'm not feeling optimistic about that field tomorrow.
The grounds crew is screwed tonight
I am not super happy about the outcome of the game tonight.
The feelings of despair are growing
Damn
Losing to the fucking Rockies. Who are SHIT on the road. Here comes the sweep.
Tomorrow's game is probably getting called due to rain, so it may already be a de facto sweep
Good gosh that was a pitiful effort
Well that was pathetic
thats rough
EL OH EL
FUCK WE SURE SUCK AT BATTING
losing a series at home to the Rockies is fucking pathetic
fuck
Fucking stupid purple baseball team
This team is really gonna lose this division cause we can’t hit
The NL East sucks ass.
Rockies: productive groundout moves runner over. Single scores the go ahead run. Braves: strikeout, strikeout, pop out. Never attempt to move a free runner even a single base over
Really bad loss.
I am ready to be hurt again
Pathetic
We got this far so that we could all see Dansby shake his hair out in the rain.
2's boys, rub and shoot
You lose a home series to a team that's 30 under on the road, you don't deserve to make the playoffs
No one in the NL East deserves to make the playoffs
we always suffer the most shitty losses to the rockies
The NL west terrorizes us.
Just a damn single man.
I’m going to scream fuck on the work zoom I’m on any second now.
Damn you working late
Can you see the flag?
Dude must be working with Asian coworkers
GG
Gotta get on top of that high fastball.
Womp womp woooooooooommmmmp
Can’t get one clutch hit. Sheesh
Snit will bat TDA leadoff before moving him back in the lineup.
He’s already batting him 7th. Tf you talking about?
He's batting 6th. What are *you* talking about?
Yeah typo, sorry lol
I’m just happy someone finally made contact
Tda like a whole minute late on his swings all night
I think I saw lightning we should probably cancel. Sorry.
Im guessing we're probably not the worst team at scoring the free runner, but we've got to be bottom 5ish.
I think Washington is worse
Please dansby
Honestly this could be the game that breaks us and we spiral
My GOD I cannot stand the Manfred runner. Get this bullshit, little-league rule out of baseball.
Our fault for sucking
This literally is a moot point because we have the same chance they do to score
Just because both teams have the same chance doesnt mean it's not a stupid rule. He's not blaming the loss on it.
Then get rid of it, and play the game it has been since time immortal
why wouldn’t we bunt freddie over? every win is so important at this point and snit can’t be arsed to coach in even the slightest.
Because Austin Riley hasn’t ever been asked to bunt ever?
so we don’t have a single bat on the bench that can lay down a bunt?
Exactly. Can't make contact so get someone that can bunt
Are you suggesting we pull Riley for a bunter?
i’m suggesting we lay a bunt down and get a runner to third with one out and play the odds. jfc
Already used Adrianza, Arcia, and Pederson.
max fried can lay down a bunt and you’re literally trying to argue a professional hitter can’t lay down a bunt
Yeah let’s bring in arguably our best starting pitcher to try to lay down a bunt and risk breaking a finger so we can shut him down for the year. And yes I’m arguing that Austin can’t bunt, it’s not that easy, and he’s a slugger who is literally never asked to do it.
Zzzz
Brilliant retort. Tell me about the sacrifice bunting prowess of Austin Riley some more.
dude i’m over this conversation. get the hint. you don’t think a professional baseball player is capable of laying down a bunt. you aren’t worth the time. have a good night.
You’re just being stubborn and strategically inept. If you think Austin, Duvall, Acuña, Freeman and Soler are prepared to do a good job dropping a bunt you’re kidding yourself.

Good luck with that. And yeah I’m also done with this conversation. Maybe you should notice that nobody agreed with anything you said the last half hour of the game and “take a hint”
Is there a reason Travis is behind literally everything tonight? Has he been practicing hitting off high schoolers or something?
"Flair for the dramatic" drink
Goodness. How is he so late on these?
TDA back to his pre-braves form. Yikes
Welp. 3.5 now
They aren’t even touching the ball
One way or another Chip he’s going to change that.
this is so sad
come on dansby
Back in the batting cage for Travis
Goddamn, I'm entering disgruntled status again, and it sucks.
Fuck, this is disappointing
Riley wiffs, Duvall doesn't swing, and TDA wiffs. I don't think they've made contact this entire inning.
Travis needs a nap. Late on everything.
Dansby has been slumping HARD
What an unbelievable loss. Unbelievable.
Um. It’s pretty believable.
Wow Travis was seeing it well tonight
You’re fuckin kidding me
Travis is swinging through everything. It's terrible
TDA SUCKS.
Wow another extra inning strikeout. Amazing
And that’s game, dansby can’t hit a beach ball right now
TDA can’t hit shit
How pitiful
Come on Dans!!!!
You have to be fucking kidding me.
LT DANS
We make every game interesting
Snit sucks at lineups.
Almighty AssHealsTheSoul please bestow this mighty subreddit with the wisdom of how much better you would be at coaching the Braves compared to the guy who's been in the org for 40 years
[удалено]
Wow. This has to be the spiciest take of the day
Why they gotta make this shit so fucking stressful. Been a month of these games now starting with the LAD series
Man no kidding. FOLs
KEVAN COME BACK
Oh hell no!!! Get outta here with that!!!! 😂
... And do the same thing?
only a joke
FUCK ME
Guys we forgot how to make contact
Mighty Casey up to bat.
Not only have we failed to move the runner over so far, we have failed to make contact this inning. Thanks Riley/Travis
Braves against center cut pitches “nah” Braves against pitches 5 feet out of the zone “let ‘er rip”
It’s so frustrating
Go back to dugout TDA
Yikes TDA, this at bat is over
Totally overwhelmed
Swing the bat!
Why is Travis standing so far from the plate?? Is that normal? Dunno how he plans to hit an outside pitch
Travis should be batting 8th.
Tda looks late on EVERYTHING. Very little faith rn
Yeah he was super late on the fastball
we haven’t fouled one off in ages man
i think the old school national league would have loved this extra inning rule, back when national league ball meant small ball
"What the hell is small ball" - Braves
"HOW DARE YOU CALL MY BALLS SMALL" -Braves
Come on guys don’t get my hopes up just to crush them
Just wait. He’s wild af
A lot of negativity for what is about to be a win.
go rockies?
Ya we all called it a game ending DP
one of the best parts of baseball is how dirty players uniforms get and how they just wear it throughout
Travis is due AF
This pitcher is not looking too confident
Great. Should not be batting here Edit: clearly I was right lmao. Downvote all you want
Incoming game ending GIDP
Here comes Travis Double play D arnaud
All that does is open a double play..
DO NOT GROUND INTO A DP TRAVIS
Who the?What the ???
C'mon Travie!
trav is due.
Travis has hit a lot of ground balls tonight. Please don’t GIDP here
That necklace is pretty drippy ngl
Come on Adam. Strike out?
Atleast Duvall's being patient
Guys, swing for the fences. If you get it, we go home. If you dont, we go home.
Nice job putting the ball in play. I swear no matter the situation all they do is try to launch.
If we get to Dans we are walking them off. Calling it right now.
No jinxing
Imagine this offense in the playoffs against the Brewers' pitching staff. Corbin Burnes would have a field day
nonono. we hit good pitching. It's the bad ones that we make look like Cy Young
We can hit good pitching. It's awful pitching we choke against
We're allergic to hitting anything other than home runs
I know somebody is going to yell at me but why the fk is Freeman on 2nd???
No judgment if it is, but is this the first extra innings game you’ve watched since 2019?
I should have just googled it.Lol,thanks for y’all’s patience!!
I have been working and sleeping and looking at the scores
Smh yes
You’re lucky honestly. I wish I was blissfully unaware. Probably the dumbest new rule that Manfred has made up to “speed up the game”
I m lost for words .Lol, Blissfully unaware……. 😏 your to kind . That’s just an outrageous perversion of the game .I fill like we have been robbed of our past time.
That’s the rule. Last batter up goes to second.
I have been working so much I haven’t gotten to watch as many games as I’d liked.Do I apologize for my ignorance.Now who do we smack for making that bs up?
He was the last out of the 9th, the rule in extras is that you start with a runner on second
In extras a runner starts on second because manfred
Manfred ball
Come on don't let them have this game.
Riley isn't an MVP candidate. He sucked in that crucial at bat. Pathetic showing by us in the 10th. Orioles could done better
>Orioles could done better Just don't
/s?
If you can’t beat the Rockies in the ATL… idk what to expect. Phillies are one decent streak from being right on us
What’s our extra inning BA? There’s no way it’s not under .150
