This one hurts more than usual.

I just can't seem to shake this loss. It was such a winnable game. If you told me before it started that we'd hold them to 2 runs on 6 hits I'd have thought FOR SURE we'd win. I don't get how everyone can slump in the same game. Key points:

  • We swung Anderson into 5IP. He missed the zone all night. Not close misses…AWFUL misses and we just kept chasing horribly. I feel like it was more us playing like s**t than him pitching a masterpiece.
  • The obvious of not getting any hits until the 8th from a pinch hitter.
  • Correa popping up a hanging curve in the ninth. That ball should've been tagged for a hit to the wall.
  • Bregman still looks injured. How does he not take second on that wild pitch?
  • Maybe Siri could've gone home after the steal? I didn't see another angle but his face seemed like he thought he could make it.

I know we can come back. I get it. But this one hurts. It was VERY winnable and we let it slip through our fingers. Now we HAVE to win these next two I feel. Even going back to Houston down 3-2 will be very tough to overcome. This Braves team is damn good.
