Braves beat writer for MLB.com since 2001. Unlike Billy The Kid, I truly am from a town known as Wheeling, West Virginia.
- The Braves FaceTimed Acuña around 1 a.m. and asked him if he wanted to play right field tonight. He started screaming and celebrating.
- The Braves should try to keep this Freeman guy
- This is what Hayes saw before being picked off by Fried, who now has a MLB-best 16 pickoffs since the start of 2019. Corbin ranks second with 11.
00:00 - The Braves swept the Mets to reduce their magic number to one. How many people Sal that coming?
- Suddenly, this place is as silent as a sterile shopping mall.
- Freddie Freeman on if he noticed Trevor Bauer chopping as he walked off the mound: "Yeah, we noticed everything he did. That's fine. He had a great performance. He can do whatever he wants when he strikes out 12 over 7 2/3. It doesn't bother us. I'm just glad we got the win."
- The Braves signed a reliever to a Minor League deal and he’ll be in camp today. If you can’t guess who it is, then I can’t help you.
- Holy hell. That might have been the greatest defensive play to end a playoff game.
- The Braves are a win away from winning the World Series
- Raisel Iglesias, who was acquired from the Angels for Jesse Chavez on Aug. 2, pitched a perfect eighth for the Braves after Chavez pitched a scoreless seventh for the Braves. Alex is playing chess while others play Candy Land.
- The Braves have a 1-0 series lead in the NLCS for the first time since Eddie Perez homered off Patrick Mahomes' dad in Game 1 against the Mets in 1999.
- Acuña scored from first on a one-out single that traveled 194 ft. Incredible
00:00 - Freddie Freeman is the Braves' first MVP since Chipper in 1999. Freeman received 28 of the 30 first-place votes.
