I still say the Braves in 6 (hope I'm wrong), Kershaw has had a stellar hall of fame career......during the regular season. He has struggled in the post season, but I will say this IF and it's a big IF imho, but IF he has a good outing and the Dodgers pull it off tonight, then I'll have to rethink my prediction.

Kershaw absolutely destroys us (even extending into the playoffs) and we're not going to pitch our ace until game 6.

It's going to be over by then even before the game starts, we're going to be talking about how losing Soroka in early August along with a no-days off series costed us even before the series began.

And we're pitching our forth string pitcher; which for the Braves is not much. We see what happened to our third string picture last night. This is the Dodgers game to lose.
 
Wish they would just close the dome already. Definitely a pitchers game so far.

Nah leave it open until the bullpens get involved. We ain't doing anything substantial against Kershaw, he's kicked our butts over his career, and this wind is likely hurting both sides, if the dome was closed, you'd probably be able to see Wilson better and Wilson is a horrible matchup against this Dodger team.

Edit: Nevermind, open it.

Well so much for a scoreless game.

Well this puts the Kershaw is king argument to rest. This is over. Never forget that Big Papi said Dodgers would win 14-3 tonight. We get no respect and I like it that way.

Yeah it's like that all the time for the Braves. Luckily they at least have a WS title or it would be worse.

Edit: At least Frank Thomas apologized after the game and gave us some love lol.

Happy to be wrong, the things that happened tonight make me think the tide might truly be turning. Had no idea Wilson was going to do what he did (that's the kind of thing you really need in a run) and we'd finally get to Kershaw, even if he might not be 100%...
 
I really hope the Braves win tonight and get it over with. My heart can't take another outcome similar to how the Super Bowl played out in 2017. Please Braves reverse the Atlanta curse and show the world that Atlanta can do something right.

First off the Braves are not the Falcons and already won a title in '95. I was there at Fulton County stadium when they won. ?
Also, Atlanta United won a title so there technically is no curse.
