Grant McAuley @grantmcauley So many people wrote Mike Foltynewicz off after his injury, first half struggles and demotion. He went down to Triple-A, did the work, earned his was back, turned his season around and just threw one of the biggest October starts for the #Braves in recent memory. Resilience.

This was a pleasant surprise, all went well in game 2 and now yes, they have a shot to reverse bad karma vs a team that has plenty of post season bad breaks
Must win in STL at least once of course, and business might be taken care of at home
Good bounce back by Melancon, Folty pitches the most important game of his life to date and this time around Mr Acuna JR decides to hustle and pay attention to the game
Got to be happy for Folty and Duvall now Duvall is one who could have said to H with it and make waves, but he went to AAA, busted his tail and got another chance & posted some power numbers when he came back - he deserves credit

680 The Fan @680thefan Snit on Mike Foltynewicz: "it's pretty cool to see for a guy that's went through what he's went through. To see him step up like that is something special" #Braves

I can think of one person here who never wrote him off, in fact the opposite......
Great job by Folty, the big Duvallollertater and just about everybody really.....great bounce back after that disastrous first game.
We play so good on the road I think we can win the next two games now.

If you can only think of one person who didn't write Folty off, you haven't been paying attention.

I hate the Cardinals. Hate them... they are so dang smug..
When I see all those smug mugs hanging over the dugout rail, all I can think about is skating past them like one of the Hanson brothers from Slap Shot.

David O'Brien @dobrienatl #Braves' Duvall on hearing boos when he went out to pinch-hit for Folty: "The fans let me know that they wanted him to stay in. Which, we all did. I just wanted to have a good at-bat. I just wanted to go out there and try to make it worth it, because he was grooving out there."

Kershaw already has given up 3 runs. Who could have seen this coming?
