Buehler vs. Anderson, 5p.
In a move the Braves never saw coming, the Dodgers opted to save Max Scherzer for Game 8 rather than start him on regular rest in today's Game 6. This forces Walker Buehler into the starting role on four days rest, and god knows who might go if we get past the Braves today. It's a crazy move, but I suppose we have to trust the process.
The Dodgers should still be buzzing after the steamrolling of Atlanta in Game 5, where we had more (Chris) Taylor than a Duran Duran concert (AJ Pollock, with two HR, also provided solid backup vocals to the band). But this narrative has flipped with every game, so I'm not expecting the momentum to carry over to Truist Park. I'm just happy that the last home game of the NLCS was a celebratory one.
LET'S GO, DODGERS!

sigh
Braves get 3 hits in the first are on the board. 1-0.
Walker looking very un-Walker like. 1-0 ATL in B1
Two on with two out for Cody.
Cody ties it up with a poke single to left!
Braves send up a pinch hitter for Anderson in the 4th. Into the bullpen.
Damn! PH double! Two on with two outs. Come on Walker!
Rosario has been killing us all series.
Shit
@Q7...Do you know what the story is behind Joc and his pearls?
Through 4, we’re down 4-1.
@karen The only story I’ve heard so far is he liked the way they looked. Nothing else behind it.
I’m with Sosg orel tonight for dinner.
We are sad about the 4-1 score but this ain’t over yet!
And I’m still not drinking
@Sax...and there ain't no fat lady singing.
@Q7...I thought there was going to be some great reason for them, like they were his great grandmother's and the pearls were the only thing she was able to smuggle out during the Holocaust.
Bazooka looked pretty good there.
Bazooka puts up a zero. Going to the 6th. Time to get the bats going!
That was a nasty pitch to Seager.
Now Doc plays the matchup with Rosario. Great.
Well that didn’t work. Vesia comes in and walks two batters.
...make it three batters. And Vesia is done.
Treinen Ks Riley! Let’s get some hits!
CT3 nearly hits one out! Leadoff double!
Double, walk, double! 4-2 now! Runners on second and third and nobody out! Let’s go!
Pujols and Souza down on strikes. Mookie up now with two outs.
Mookie down swinging. That hurts.
Going to the 8th. 2-3-4 coming up for us. Still down by two.
Quickly down in order. Ugly.
Kenley puts up a zero. Last at bats. Need some hits. Down 4-2.
We get nothing. Braves moving on to the World Series.
