This is it, the last playoff tune-up series for the remainder of the 2024 season: four games, on the road, against perennial National League powerhouse (and historic Dodgers rival), the Atlanta Braves. This year, Atlanta is getting a lot of talk about the loss of starter Spencer Strider as well as position player (and reigning NL MVP) Ronald Acuna Jr, and how the Braves are now one game back of the Mets for the last Wild Card spot.
I don't understand why Atlanta gets the sympathy while the Dodgers have been MUCH more beset by injuries. The 2024 Dodgers have spent 1,992 days on the IL (as of today), which dwarfs every other MLB team by at least 150 days, and that includes the Braves (1,575 IL days). So spare me the sob stories, Atlanta. As well as that inappropriate tomahawk chop.

Just logged on to see Teoscar strand Freeman at second. Yay.
Max Muncy again can't field. That's gonna cost us
And, it quickly does. Matt Olson double, we're already down 1-0.
Tommy Edman saves us from worse damage.
1-0 ATL through 1.
Landon Knack walks the first batter in the second inning and then gives up a two-run bomb. We are doomed
already down 3. smh
fuck
Landon Knack is throwing BP. He gives up another HR. It's 5-0 LA and we don't even have two outs in the second.
Fuck this shit.
Knack is at 61 pitches and he doesn't even have six outs yet. Enough.
Thanks for burning our bullpen for Game 1, Landon!
Glasnow setback now Knack shitting the bed. not good looking forward
MiggyRo!!
5-2 keep chipping away
Lux could have made that very interesting there in the third, but he flies out to end the inning.
Game over. We lose 6-2
looks like Glasnow is out for the season with a sprained elbow.
Tyler hurt in bullpen session. Asked if we might see Shohei pitching in October Doc was noncommittal

i dont want to see Shohei pitch til next year.
@Spanky....I was thinking the same thing. Don't want to move him along to quickly.
Dodgers tie it up at 1
Dodgers ruining my weekend
This game feels like the Boys have been out of it since the first pitch.
Miggy pitching the seventh. His first pitch was a 49 mph strike. 10-1 ATL
Craig's kid pinch running for Bravos. So that's where he went.

HAPPY ROBERTO CLEMENTE DAY!!!!
Mookie representing in Mr. Clemente's #21.
How many games is Austin Barnes going to cost us because of his catchers interference calls
Get rid of Barnes!!!
Barnes. This loss is your fault.
I think even Doc's beat up. He just sounds flat not at all like his usual positive self.
Slappy up. Hope Barnesy is okay.
I am going to throw caution to the wind and say that Walker is looking much more Buehler-like today.
Shohei ties this mother up with his second double.
Why can’t Mookie hit anymore
ATL IW's Shohei and Mookie makes them pay with tiebreaking rbi.
TEO blasts one outta there!!!
Edman and Muncy go back to back after Teo's homer. 9-2 Dodger Blue going to bottom of 9th.
Bazooka comes in to clean up the burning of Atlanta when Dodgers catch fire.
Couldn't help it...Gone With the Wind is one of my favorite movies.
Boys win 9-2. Both shit eaters behind us also win.
My god, that win was huge.
Last night I posted a beautiful wrap up about our win...something about Atlanta burning and Gone with the Wind, yada, yada, yada but our site deleted it. Y'all get the gist
DTrain saying in Friarville they are talking about 'hunting down' first place and all their remaining games are in the Pacific Time Zone. BURN SAN DIEGO BURN YOU ASSHOLES!!!!

KIKI 2B
YOSHI RHP
You'd think that just like running on Mookie in right field the league would figure out not to IW anyone in front him.
i would have pitched to Ohtani last night and just throw inside stuff. he cant hit it. look at him jumping back like a wimp and those pitches aren't even close to hitting him.
Slappy error puts Michael Harris on third with one out, but Yoshi gets out of it.
Freddie with a leadoff walk in the second.
Come on, Slappy!
Slappy fucking GIDPs.
Kike Hernandez sucks! He Ks for the second out with Rojas on third.
Rojas scores with a WP with Ohtani at bat. Ohtani walks. Two out.
nice pitching by Yoshi to end the 4th
miggyro singles in edman
Edman doubles to lead off the fifth, and Rojas singles him in. Now we have two on, none out...but Kiké at the plate.
Kiké flies to right. One out, Rojas on third and Muncy on first.
Here's Shohei.
Shohei forces Muncy but scores Rojas from third.
3-0 LA, two out. Here's Mookie
Mookie does not seem to be seeing the ball well
Mookie Ks for the second time tonight.
3-0 LA, mid 5
3-0 LA
Boys finally get a hit
Shohei up with bases juiced and 1 out
FreddyBoom!!
3 run home for Freddie. 9-0 Blue.
WIN!!! Now on to Miami.
that's a wrap
Can't believe we split that series! Wow.
Houston just scored its first run against SD, so it's 2-1 SD, B8, no out, Astro on first (Yordan Alvarez).
I can't stomach rooting for Houston, but here I am.
Arizona already lost to the Rockies.
houston strands runners at the corners in the eighth. 2-1 SD, mid-8
Profar with a solo shot. SD has this one wrapped up. They'll be 3.5 games back if they win tonight, and then they have:
two more at home vs. Houston
three at home vs. the pathetic white sox
three at Dodger Stadium
three at Diamondbacks
