Lee looked good and Max recovered enough to preserve the pen. Bout the only positive takeaways from tonight. Can't really bellyache splitting 2 on the road, but with Morton going down, it would have really been nice to have won this one too, but alas Max was way off the first two innings and defense waa terrible in both alignment and execution. Now if they are to win the series, they'll have to have Anderson pitch outstanding, Smyly pitch competently, and either Wright/Davidson/Bullpen to get them through to game 7 and Max get his head on straight. You can't but my thought was we had to take the first 2 to have a really good chance with Morton out. We still have a fair chance but at this rate we are asking our pitchers to hold Houston to 2-3 runs a game. Braves bat may have one more game we score 5+ but the way Houston has been pitching us it doesn't look that way.

Surprised that wasn't called a strike. Astros pitchers getting a lot of calls just off the plate all night. I don't remember Fried getting any. Yep, this dipsticks report card should heavily favor the Asterisks.

We need somebody to go off with the bat, too. Has to be more than 1 against this pitching staff.

Inning over they are getting flat dominated by this staff. Cheaters do win apparently.

Based upon his past stats, Maton is pitching way over his head right now.

Smyly. First pitch homer. I guess he had his one good outing already.

Since Smyly is in, Davidson and/or Wright will get a start, apparently.

Well gotta be inclined to believe Houston is now the heavy favorite to win the series. That Morton injury was devastating in more ways than 1.

Checking out. Doesn't look good but I'll watch upstairs until it's over. Smyly being Smyly. Now we all know why he's pitching tonight and not starting game 4.
