I just hope he starts off better than Wright. Wright was pretty much defeated soon as that second run scored yesterday. It was a bad omen when we didn't get that 1st out. We make that play which made if Freddie could have taken the throw on the infield side of the foul line and the entire game could have gone differently. I know it a tough play but teams that win WS make a lot of tough plays.

The Atlanta Urinal Constipation says FS1, but it doesn’t really matter the same idiot announcers and analysts on either station. Yea...but when you're in a hotel like I was last night watching on a TV is better than a phone, tablet, or laptop. Most hotels don't carry FS1. www.mlb.com/gameday/dodgers-vs-braves/2020/10/15/635928/preview

I'm not so much banking on Wilson as I am us being able to score off of Kershaw. I just see us scoring runs off of him. It could be a 10-9 game.
Our team has been extremely resilient this year, so I see us bouncing back.
Acuna is 1/9 with one double, no RBI and 5 K's, and Ozuna is 2/13 with one double and 1 RBI in this series.
So we've been scoring runs with those two doing almost nothing, if they can get it going look out.
And the Dodgers have done more than their fair share of choking over the last 30 years, so don't count out that factor. They know this is a huge game with us having Max to pitch once more in this series.

But that's water under the bridge now.

I hope you're right about us bouncing back. We're a confident team. It all boils down to what Wilson can give us. I mean, throw out the 11-run debacle in the first inning last night, and it's 4-3 over the final 8 innings. Throw out the overturned call at first, and it's a totally different deal as well. As soon as that happened, I figured they would score. Wright then gets 2 quick outs, and I'm like "OK, we're good", then all hell broke loose. It's hard to figure. If Wilson can get us through the order once, I'll feel a lot better, put it that way.

Yes once Wright got those two outs last night I felt like we'd be just fine if he could get out of that inning just giving up the one run. But that's not exactly what happened.

He pitched scared, which I was afraid he might do, just based on my observations of his mound demeanor when he's pitched in the past. He's a bit like Folty that way......let's just hope it doesn't turn out the same in the long run. To be honest, I'm pleasantly surprised that we've gotten to the point of leading the NLCS 2-1 with the issues we've had. I can't help but want more, but I realize it's asking a lot of these young guys to get us there.

I can't help but want more, but I realize it's asking a lot of these young guys to get us there. yup, I felt like getting two wins in the NLCS under the current status of the team would be plenty successful enough. But then they went and won the first two outright, which led to me feeling unrealistically greedy. Then yesterday was like a gut punch back to reality. While it certainly would be nice to win the series, the hit to pitching depth with soroka out, hamels out im.afraidcis really going to show-- heck it did yesterday. Im.nkt saying it's impossible to win this xeries, but the Dodgers obviously have better starting pitching depth, and that is usually the difference maker. Would love to force a game 7.

I've been thinking this for quite a while. We have to have these two start stepping up. Free won't be hitting a hr every AB and neither will the mid to bottom of the order. We need the dodgers to be leery of every batter that comes up tonight.

I sure hope the Braves have a fire lit under their butts fir all the disrespect they get from everyone. No Braves on the pre game tonight as it was all Kershaw and the doogers. If the Skankees were still in it, I don't know whose team ass would be kissed more.
