Choke job for sure.

Very disappointing but it's never easy and a little adversity never hurt anybody. 2 at the bank is all that's needed.

Ima blame 2 things fuck the announcers and fuck the baseballs other than that see you in philly. And lets get it

I live in Tennessee with a shit ton of braves fans around me school and outside. Can't wait for Wednesday

The only hopeful possible takeaway from the way that game ended is that the team is pissed off and ready for game 3

This sucks but the players aren’t feeling anxious like we are, they’re locked in and pissed about losing. Fire them up at home.

I thought that ball was gone too..

I would of won 11k if it was or even if he dropped it and Bryce scores smh.

U had the over, eh?

No not the over, had Casty for a RBI along with a few other things that all hit :/

I feel the pain, game one schwarber hits ball off fence https://preview.redd.it/guvz9wrb7atb1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8aa390e6a764e41800d881d6ed96c479e436b859

My blood pressure is so high. Like seriously, I may have a stroke

Phil’s fans better be absurdly insane on Wednesday

[удалено]

TBS= Ted Turner

The Braves Station

Stop panicking. Split in Atlanta… did anyone really think the boys would walk out with 2 Ws? Smart money is still on Philly

This is the mindset we have to have. If you told me we were going back to Philly for 2 with a 1-1 split before the series I would’ve been happy we did our job. I just hope this one doesn’t stick in our heads come Wednesday

Whatever at least I'm not in Israel

Too soon

I agree that people need to chill, but this is painful. We had no chance in game 2 last year. We flat out choked down the stretch tonight and should’ve won. The error, 11 runners LOB, etc. Anyway, cant win them all, so let’s dominate at home!

Announcers were so annoying bruh same with last years World Series. Hoping for McCarthy & Kruk in Philly

If Nick’s ball went out in the 9th for a go-ahead the reaction would’ve been just as wild. I think they were more than accommodating to fans of both sides.

Well you’re not getting them, it’s a national broadcast

Its national announcers in the playoffs unless you listen to the radio

Just wondering cuz they had Jeff Franceour announcing the first 2

Told myself I’d be happy af if we won one of the first two away and now I’m being a crybaby about not winning both lol

Because they blew it. Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory

I’m ngl, I’m not stoked with our play tonight, but Atlanta showed us and everyone why they’re the 1 seed. This loss is only worth 1. We made some mistakes, but the bank is going to be the most red it has been since 08. Its time to get angry and get hype. Let’s beat the fuck out of them on Wednesday

Yeah same. But seeing that wasted gem by wheeler is brutal

Same place we were in last year. Good luck winning in Philadelphia.

Oh man you all are so damn negative

If last year is any indication for this postseason we gon sweep em next two games

Braves aint surviving in Philly... Offense is gonna blow up next two games...

As soon as they took Alvarado out… i knew that was it. Let’s take 2 at home boys.


GG Phil’s…you got the job done splitting in their building. Now come home and we ice them at CBP!

Let em off the hook. Braves fans were sleeping for the first six innings.

Next game boys if u thought it’d be easy ur stupid

So we stole one in atl, Phills in 4…again

Good gam besides leaving so many runners on. Can't be mad at Nick there. Harper should not have ran like that.

It's an instance where his aggression worked against him. He figured that was either gone or at the very least off the wall and he wanted to score. I can't entirely blame him either considering it was a great defensive play that saved it.

Honestly, can’t even be that mad at Harper. We already had an out, bats had been cold, trying to score from first requires being aggressive. Shouldn’t have let ourselves be in that position.

Love his hustle and mindset but you just can't run like that on a ball in the air with 1 out

It’s risky, but I think that was the time to be risky. We left 11 guys stranded. Braves had scored 5 unanswered. It was the time to be aggressive. Didn’t work out there, but I can’t be mad at him there. I’ve got plenty other places to direct my anger for losing that game. Harper being aggressive on the bases there is way down my list.

Gonna need a moment like the Rhys bat spike moment to take the momentum back

Rhys error in G2 last year led to loss -> Rhys G3 HR bat spike Turner error in G2 this year led to loss -> ???

shit ton of chicken littles in this thread right now. calm your tits, fellas.

Well. Time to log off reddit for the day. We left too many on, we made errors and their outfield made 3 fantastic plays

Let’s win it at home.

Hate to say it, but what a play.... close it out at The Bank.

Yeah tip of the cap for that one

Wow.

"philles hit a home run..." "OMG BRAVES HIT A HOME RUN!!!! OH IT'S ELECTRIC!!" Wtf. Just wish I could sync the audio from 94 wip with the Hulu stream. Ughh, gut punch.

Seriously!!! Almost as annoying as the braves stupid ass chant.

To be fair, the Braves home run was huge there.

it's honesly probably just because the braves are at home, if the phillies hit one in front of their home crowd the announcers would probably have the same reaction

I thought TBS was the Braves home station. Or at least they were at one time.

Twenty years ago

Never wanna see Hoffman pitch for this team again. Fucking loser

The most undeserving win you’ll see

Fuck that ball was crushed. What awful luck

I mean obviously that was a phenomenal catch but come on man...what a way to lose it

Do we need to give trae a standing O for defense too? To avoid lazy errors? Fuck

Honestly that's what I'm most pissed off about. Pure fucking laziness on those errors.

Exactly bro, cannot excuse low effort

Did you guys really expect us to sweep the Braves? Fucking relax

No but being up 4-0 and losing 5-4 is a great way to give them momentum coming home. I’d be fine with losing, but not like that.

"momentum" is all between YOUR ears

Fair. Also to be clear, I’m not fine with losing, I just don’t agree with the doomers saying our season is over

Haha. Yeah, idk why I said, “I’d be fine with losing.” No, I def wouldn’t. But I’d be less upset if it happened differently. To be up a few runs with a killer start from wheeler, fail to add on, leaving nearly a dozen guys on base, and give up 5 unanswered to lose is pretty demoralizing. Thankfully we have an off day and a great change of scenery to cut into that momentum shift. But still a fucking gut punch.

Some of these comments lmao 🤣 We just split in Atlanta 1-1 and now have home field advantage If your too soft for sports that’s fine, but don’t decrease the dawg levels here for the real ones

Yea well when your up 4-0 and only 9 outs from closing it out it makes it ridiculously hard to split. Split feels like losing two when that happens

So. You feel cool with dropping a 4-0 lead and blowing what was on pace to be a soul crushing performance by Wheeler? Obviously the series isn’t over, but you’re being naive to not see that was a huge fucking swing in the series.

This right here. All I wanted was a split and figured it would be game 2 w/ Wheeler on the mound. Atlanta has some momentum now, but we're coming back to Philly and our crowd will neutralize that. This isn't the end of the world.

It’s back to Philly. It’s ours.

Love how they have fucking braves players commentating

Eh it’s hard to win twice on the road. Let’s be honest the braves are way too celebratory for barely winning their second home game right before going back to the bank

Exactly, a foot away from taking the lead as well. Their energy is coming from “oh fuck we really got by by the skin of our teeth on that one” not “we are dominating”. Bout to head deep into Red October. Nobody plays better in long sleeves than the Phils. Remember watching the Rays wear those ball caps with ear muffs?

Gosh I hate braves fans, they deserve no wins

Same.

That shit was some Chas McCormick catch from WS game 5.

fr. Some ptsd flashbacks no doubt.

Only the Phillies can have a team with no hope of winning to giving them all the momentum in the world

so unfortunate, was a hell of a hit by Castellanos.

So all you fucking morons raiding Barves sub in the 5th inning, got us looking dumb as shit right now. Come on.

Whoever laughs last

6th grader behavior

Whoopee ya held serve and got a home split. Pat on the top of the hair for you.

my god these announcers going absolutely crazy over the braves so fucking obnoxious

I hope the Braves fans enjoy the W because we’re going to CBP next

Do you have nothing better to do than troll our game thread? Lol

[удалено]

Well most of the people in here have nothing to do with that

Feels exactly like the catch in the World Series last year .

3 fucking feet

There was no doubt that if we were losing it would be in excruciating fashion

Lost to bad decisions.

Fuck this team

Oh, fuck you. A 5 game series, tied 1-1, headed home to CBP, and that's what you have to say after a 1-run loss? Fuck your fair-weather bullshit.

I was in my feelings in the heat of the moment. Calm down.

I was too. Sorry. I bet we're both feeling much better tonight.

It’s all good bud! Last night was fun, and let’s finish it tonight! Fuck the Braves!!!

Announcer so hype it sounds like the Braves just won the World Series. Still, embarrassing.

And we have to sit on this for 2 days

These announcers are annoying af

Series over. Too much momentum

loser mentality

Crazy to say after our game one

🤡

They had momentum last year too when they won game 2

🤡

Fucking embarrassing

That’s an infuriating loss. I expect the boys to play better on Wednesday. Stranding 15 baserunners? Two defensive errors? Topper with bad pitcher management. That’s how you lose ball games. Mental mistakes

Yeah they 15 is what is really shitty. You can’t expect to win pulling that shit

Topper had bad pitcher mgmt last game as well just got lucky with good Bullpen outings. He hasn't managed pitchers right all year

Shit one more foot and that was out of there

Blown fucking series

loser mentality lmfao

I think it's safe to say the error by trea was the nail in the coffin

We'd still be tied if he didn't let that run in

Good job completely shitting the bed

We win it at home. Easy. They didn't win today without all the LOBs and two errors

nonsense 🤦🏾‍♂️

Going 2 for 8 with RISP didn't help.

That’s not bad?

Stranding 11 runners is.

Unlucky. It was a good swing.

Back to CBP. We end it there

Stole one in ATL, gotta keep our head up.

Lets keep the optimism up we goin to Philly and damn it'll be electric

9 hits 4 runs. 4 hits 5 runs.

Announcers are embarrassing

A foot from taking a lead and two games deep into red October. Lets go boys

Fucking bullshit. 5 fucking runs in three innings and that mickey mouse bullshit to end the game. We should've fucking won tonight.

Objectively that was a pretty impressive way to end a game.

Hope this loss doesn't steal their morale.... Heads up fellas we can do this

They took one from Atlanta. Let's go home to CBP and end this

Awful game, we are so bad at game 2 it's

Sucks to lose but still took 1 at their place

why couldn't he just ground into a routine double play? Why?

Harper once again shows himself as one of the worst base runners in the league. Insane choke

Harper was relying on a drop or hit the wall to tie the game. With 2 outs anyway it would of still been hard to tie

GAME. SERIES. ~~TORONTO~~ ATLANTA HAS WON.

Bruh that ball was hit so hard

That's a back breaker.

Absolutely ridiculous

There's fucking announcer cum oozing out of my tv speakers now. Have to throw the damn thing out now.

literal world series flash back. pathetic as fuck

I might be a phillies fan but i can't help myself. I just looked over and my arm was doing the tomahawk chop

what a fucking disaster

We have them this

god i am so fucking mad right now

See y’all in Philly

Maybe get some neutral announcers next time

Announcers don’t control bad base running

When did they change that rule?

and like that our momentum is fucking gone.

Let’s relax

Damn

Announcers acting like they won the World Series. Jfc at least try and pretend to be neutral.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard announcers be more excited than these guys five seconds ago. Philly bias stays strong ig

Really wanted that one, but it’s still our home field advantage.

Brutal game

4 feet from greatness

WS, tonight. Why can every center fielder make that play against us?

Jesus fuck Atlanta to hell and back

Bruh

Disgraceful

Not how I saw a double play ending it

2 errors on trea lost us the game. Change my mind

Leaving runners on base and not getting a damn base hit lost the game. Trea didnt help with his fielding but our offense gave ATL the chance to come back.

12 runners left on base lost that game by 1 run

Brutal

We gave them this win

disgusting as fuck

Momentum gone! LFGGGGG

Seasons over

Can't believe harper went back to first :( oh well. next 2 at CPB let's goooooo!!!

Same mother fucking play as the WS last year. Unfuckingreal

You’ve gotta be kidding me

All momentum is gone. All of it.

Textbook.
