In a series the Braves need to sweep to have a good chance to make the postseason, they start it off with a dominating win over the Mets.
The job is not done yet, but will they get these games in as a hurricane threatens the next two?

Suddenly I'm a big SF Giants fan this week!
So far They have won the first 2 over Diamond backs.
Lol so this morning we have the locked on Mets host Ryan Finkelstein crying that the Braves don't deserve to win this and that the Mets have been such a better team. lol What a poor sport he is
Schwelly! Harris! I hope they end up playing the next two games. Sale going next! Mets feeling helpless.
DAt hurricane tho
It was maybe 18 months ago I made a comment requesting not to ever take Murphy out of the lineup. It was around the time the heard wanted Marcel thrown under the jail. As a former struggling adult I was rooting for Marcel. And as a once slumping baseball player I also empathize with Murph. A ball coming at you either looks invisible or like a donut. Idk, random thoughts. Whatever. Just get it done.
**edit** I do feel Laureano should have batted 5th. In the heat of the moment I felt he would have cleared the bases instead of a Soler ring-up. Perhaps the idea is Soler is proven under the big lights.
HAD to win. DID win.
I’m jacked. Let’s glide
Any time you are playing a "must win" game, you're playing "post season" baseball...
Big boy win
I was at this game, it felt amazing. You could taste the playoffs in the air.
Broooooo
Felt like 2021?
What did it Taste like? 🤣😂
#GOBRAVES!!!
@@timothyfleming1840 something like that, it was different though. These guys had this vibe to them, I can’t explain it
@@timothyfleming1840 More like 2022 when the Braves swept the Mets in the last week of the season to take the division.
Braves have been such a roller coaster this year , if they are done in October they are not going quietly into the night.
Awesome start however fhe weather could force make up games. And i dont know about you. Jake. I dont want any makeup games. I just want this series to play out and know where we stand vs royals. I dont want to have to wait until monday. Maybe if rains out today rain holds up for a DH Thursday
What are your thoughts? Thank you. Everydayer right here 👍 also Jake i have a good sports channel with a decent following. Do you think you would able to do a show with me? My Followers and Bravss fans i know would enjoy it. I understand you are very busy. I just had to ask. Thanks 👍
Jake do you think if the rain is light during the day today or thursday that MLB could push the game times to early in the day?
The Braves actually have a chance to move up to the 2nd wild card spot if AZ loses and Braves win! That’s crazy 😮
Looks like a rain out today
"Schwelly" has certainly performed as a top of the rotation pitcher.
The weather is now conspiring against the braves.
Just take advantage of opportunities, Braves, and you all can make it to the post season. Go Braves!!!
Would love to sit Arcia to give him a break and be able to clear his head whether it’s gio or Whit at ss because his at bats are horrible and now over the last 2 1/2 - 3 weeks is effecting his defense as well! He still at times makes some good plays but plays he normally makes has botched a bunch!
Great pitching again and hopefully our offense keeps rolling!
I touched a magic lamp and was able to get my wish of lil Acuna being acquired next season! 😳🤘👍
Both Urshela and Merrifield have been below average defenders at shortstop thur far in their careers, I doubt that's going to change. I'm not sure what you're seeing on defense from Arcia, but most would disagree with your assessment of it, and the metrics do as well.
We saw in the Phillies vs Braves last Sunday came in Philadelphia that Merrifield and Arcia not having much experience together cost Atlanta from being able to turn a double play which would have caused that game to go 1 more inning at least. I don' t think with 5 games left the Braves are going make a major defensive change at shortstop. The Braves have liked Arcia's defense for the last 2 years and he has much experience with Albies so probably no missed double plays
Nah, you can't sit your starting shortstop in a playoff race, especially one who has proven himself to be a big asset defensively. He made an error tonight but then immediately made up for it with a stellar play. And I would LOVE to get little Acuna too, man, that would be so awesome. Especially seeing as how we do need a SS for the future.
If both Wednesday and Thursday games get rained out; and MLB didn’t try anything smart like playing Monday when both teams were off and / or a double hitter Tuesday and it comes down to a double hitter Monday before the playoffs start for who goes to the playoffs. It’s going be a disaster for baseball.
As it sits we have the momentum with the Mets in a shocked situation and Chris Sale and Max Fried lined up. To if it happens a rain out both days. The Braves would have a to start Sale Friday; Fried Saturday to even get us into a meaningful Monday double hitter. Making both pitchers unavailable for Monday would just be horrible. As more than likely we would have Charlie Morton; and Grant Holmes pitching for our season
Double “header”
Went to the game last night and the place was rocking. It’s playoff baseball baby
Looks like it’s gonna be raining today and tomorrow what are they gonna do the end of the season is gonna be a mess what a memorable year, I hope it turns out well
Probably means no sale or fried pitching. Most likely Morton and Schwellenbach
Wow I just heard about the weather postponement which totally will favor the Mets esp give the fact the Brewers may rest all their starters most if not all 3 games vs NY this wknd!!! If not, I am sure the Braves woulda won the season series vs NY tonight with Sale going!!!
Proud of the boys for that one
There is going to be a major double-header on Monday. I hope everyone stays safe. I doubt the Braves will even be able to play Friday. I live in Florida and Helene is already creating torrential downpours.
I think the Wednesday game gets played; the weather looks like it will hold up for the Wednesday game.
@@benjaminwatlers1848 I would love to be able to watch it, but I am guessing we are now looking at a double-header Saturday or Sunday with Royals and then another one Monday with the Mets.
@@rodrocketon9480Braves most likely have to throw Sale and Fried on Saturday as we have to win those. Making Monday double hitter most likely Morton and Schwellenbach.
Than if the Braves were successful have to either Fried or Sale on short rest
What a game by Schwellenbach. The team delivered in all areas tonight.
Joel
Sherman is reporting per grant that today and tomorrows game are postponed
any chance of playing in the dome?
What dome would they play at? I think if the Braves get rained out today and Thursday looks bad I could see MLB doing something like moving it as you can't have a team come in on Monday and play a double header before the play offs.
@@benjaminwatlers1848 The Benz would have worked
Mets 70 loses
Braves 71 loses
Diamondbacks 71 loses
Aren't we still a half game behind the diamondbacks for a wild card?
@@benjaminwatlers1848 Now the Braves are, after tonight's thrashing by the Giants, as their 3 game set started on Monday, thus they are a game ahead. Giants are on a heater, as this is their longest winning streak of the season, so lets how the Giants beat the D'backs tomorrow as well.
@@MassBoostyeah, we need that Giants sweep tomorrow.
your favorite Dodgers fan here!! 🌴 😎
Ok guys I know I've been crapping on the Braves but I'm rooting for them to get the Mets outta the playoffs,
I just learned MAGA hat's are banned from Citi Field and I'm for Trump!! so go get them Braves ✊
Thanks for the support; yeah I saw that lawsuit filed about the Mets also.
You're a good fan & a good man. I would bet the Mets wouldn't ban "Harris" hats.
Gross, man. Gross on so many levels.
Thank you Tony. Dodgers and Braves have a fun rilvary now. And I know Dodgers fans and some have sent me some dodgers merch for my sports room. Dodgers fans have always been classy and respectful towards me winning or losing vs my Braves throughout the years. Much respect 👍
@@Tony-q8r gross, man.
Schwellenbach is amazing. Strikeouts were down but that doesn’t matter. 7 innings? You kidding me? Did all that and saved the bullpen. Incredible. And sale going game 2? Pressure on the Mets now.
It looks more than likely it’s a rain out today and tomorrow.
🎉🎉Great take Jake
It's Go time ⏰!!!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
