This. SF is their best match up though. SF can't score either, these games will be one run games where anything can happen. Somebody who knows more about ATL than I, do they have a defensive replacement for Conrad late in the game? No way I would want him out there in the 9th.
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
They have a couple of options. One (and he may start at sometime) is to bring Glaus in at 3rd and put Infante back at second. The other option is Dior Hernandez. He's a MI who is pretty slick with the glove. Had Prado not been hurt, he probably wouldn't have made the postseason roster IMO.
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
Lead off hit for Posey (best young player in the game imo).
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
i figure hernandez in close, late game situations. very good with the glove
not a big bat, but can def. play the field well
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
Posey steals second as Burrell K's.
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
Posey was obviously out on that steal after seeing the replays

Agreed, MLB needs instant replay. I'm not sure if it was you or someone else but we were discussing how often umpires miss the call on steals at second. Usually it's the other way, if the ball beats the runner he's normally automatically out.
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
Why not at least "pitch around" Sandoval? He may get himself out.
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
WTF?!?!
Why walk Pablo there?
Re: Braves @ Giants Game One Thread
That was definitely the wrong call. Im almost surprised Pablo didn't swing at one of the intentional walk pitches.
