ATL Sports: Braves prefix

[Beef]

That was one of the worst calls I've ever seen. How the fuck do you call infield fly rule on a ball 50 feet past the infield dirt and clearly in the outfield? And why is the outfield line ump even making that call?

We should have had bases loaded with only 1 out there. That's a huge deal.

Braves pulled a Falcons last night.

Seriously. We proved to be the better team all season, but because of a new rule that is contrary to all baseball logic those lucky bastards get to move on. Watch this tomfoolery be eliminated next year when the Yankees/Sox win the wild card by 10 games but lose to like Cleveland in the play-in game.

Maybe the Braves should try and get real hits, instead of leaving the game in the hands of the umps.

and not make any errors. they didn't deserve to win that game, they literally threw it away but having said that.....

anyone else realize the ump didn't call the infield fly rule until the SS dropped his glove to move out of the outfielders way? the infield fly rule is supposed to be called immediately...

Lol that's all you got? Oh you beat up on the Astros all year blah blah blah. We had a positive record outside of the division this year so it's not like we can't compete.

As for last night, if your defense doesn't cause a million errors the in field fly call isn't even relevant. .

It's complete bullshit the Braves won 6 more games than the Cardinals and beat the Cardinals 5 of 6 times and then because they picked last night to have one of their worst games of the season it's all over. 162 games all down the drain because of 1 fucking game. That's bullshit.

I completely agree that the one game playoff is bullshit, but that's what the dumbass commish wanted so we are stuck with it.
