    I could've swore I heard the ump announce "confirmed" rather than "stands" but maybe I misheard.

    Espada must be shell shocked with the Astros’ start. He probably came in thinking he knew how to drive this Ferrari and thankful for having such a nice car only to reverse it into a wall when trying to leave the dealership.

    he needs to grow a pair and light a fire under these bums

    Braves winning the "luck battle" today.

    Brown pitching an excellent game so far, and only 74 pitches thru 6.

    One-run deficit

    Let's score a couple runs soon.

    Regardless of this game's outcome, it's huge to get Brown back on track. I was a little concerned given the magnitude of how hard he was hit the previous 2 games.

    Glad to see this version of Hunter. Still questionable if that was a hr. Otherwise he’s been fantastic.

    this could possibly back fire because he's a rookie manager. these guys are vets and been there done that. they know what it takes to win. if you need a rookie manager to light a fire under you, then there are bigger problems.

    If it backfires that means the team never respected him in the first place

    well then don’t put a rookie manager in charge of a well oiled machine that went to the ALCS 7 years in a row . And if the players, in fact, tune him out - shame on them.

    In what a lot of people probably predicted was a possible World Series preview. Astros are a yawn fest.
