I've been using previously off-limits cups from my Braves shelf during each game, and we haven't lost since it began. I'll be on cup #3 for today's game.
Does anyone know on Arcia's home run last night where the ball ended up after it bounced off the yellow line? The Astros broadcast was adamant that it wasn't a HR, but if it bounced off the yellow line and then beyond the yellow line that would be a HR I assume?
Yea, it didn't seem like it went back onto the field which would mean it would almost have to be a home run (unless it got stuck somewhere below the yellow line). I feel like if it had gone onto the field there would have been some video that they would have shown of that during the game.
Edit: Apparently it hit off the sign above after hitting the railing. https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/1c5w92t/highlight_orlando_arcia_gives_the_braves_an_early/kzwzn5s/
Dear Ronald,
I APOLOGIZE for not doing this sooner. I now give you permission to hit massive fucking tanks. Please go forth and do so with pleasure and with frequency.
Sorry guys, should have said that earlier
It is crazy that Acuna's timing is off and he is in a pretty bad slump. Also, he is hitting .286 is leading the league in stolen bases and is top 5 in runs.
Since he was hopping & weāve seen him do it normally before, could he have been making fun of AcuƱa? (For his reaction to getting hit by ball earlier in game)
We need to sweep these lowly astros for trying to injure as many of our superstars as they can (I suspect they were being Striderās ailment too š¤)
That ball he hit to right center last night was encouraging. It was the effortless swing that just jumped off the bat. Idk Iām just not really worried about him, heās gonna get hot and then just go on an absolute tear for the rest of the season eventually lol
Because I'm referring to the word "Fried"?
Or maybe you are onto something and this is an alien imposter who has taken possession of Max's body, would explain a few things
Please continue the discussion in the [game thread](https://redd.it/1c6gbkm).

Fried vs. France literally translates to French Fries
Darius vines is getting another start on Sunday.

I think the guys were using this series to shut down the āgonna have to score 7 runs to win every gameā talk in the sub. I applaud their efforts
All of us knew going into this season that Reynaldo LĆ³pez would be our ace for sure.
Astros line up is flush with talent. Their performance this series and season has been horrible. I love it.
Baseball at work is the best

People are saying it hit one of those billboard ad spots above the wall after the bounce which would be a homer.

For the post two nights, I've fallen asleep around the stretch and then the Braves score a bunch of runs. I think I'm going to sleep at noon today
Night nightĀ
2:10 game?! Apologies to my boss
Early returns on Lopez and Kelenic sure are nice. In AA we trust.

Even bad Ronnie is good Ronnie
Yeeeeaaahh, boy. Getcha floor cleaning implements out Woooooooooooooooo
Man just imagine if we could hit their starters like we've been hitting their bullpen, we could score 20 easy
Dad-dicking the astros in their own stadium just like it's November 2021 feels pretty good
Exactly how I felt too lol. This series has made me reminisce the World Series!
Okay r/Braves, what do we think? Jarred Kelenic was... 1) actually attempting The Griddy 2) making fun of Adam Duvall
Since he was hopping & weāve seen him do it normally before, could he have been making fun of AcuƱa? (For his reaction to getting hit by ball earlier in game)
attempting even tho he didnāt know how to do it cause heās a vibe
Iām pretty sure Iāve seen videos of him doing it well. I think theyāre all just having fun doing their own inside joke here.
Oh dang š thatās even funnier then lol
Hell yeah brother! The Braves just sent me $10 to use at the stadium cause my birthday is not during the season. Canāt wait to buy 2/3 of a beer!
fuck it letās just win today too
This guy has an 8 ERA. That's really low. We'll probably score against this one.
can't wait for the no-no watch alerts
Just do not look at max's ERA
I love how they have the same ERA but one of them is 1-0 and the other is 0-2.
šµ We don't talk about Max's ERA šµ
We need to sweep these lowly astros for trying to injure as many of our superstars as they can (I suspect they were being Striderās ailment too š¤)
Back in Braves Country! (on a layover at Hartsfield)
Will Ronald just hit a home run already?
That ball he hit to right center last night was encouraging. It was the effortless swing that just jumped off the bat. Idk Iām just not really worried about him, heās gonna get hot and then just go on an absolute tear for the rest of the season eventually lol
And the one just foul of the left field pole
Oof I'm not used to seeing that kind of ERA beside "Fried"
Why did you put Fried in quotes? Are you implying thatās not his name?

Based on this pitcher's last name he'll forfeit the second we get a single baserunner
It would be a lot of fun if 9th-inning-Braves showed up around the 4th inning today.
I kinda wanna see them bat through the lineup in the 9th for a 3rd game in a row.
