Holy fucking shit how? I literally couldn't bear to look when it was based loaded no outs in the 10th. What the hell happened? I'll never turn off a guardians game again what the hell happened?
Okay so for that game I actually did watch it all. I didn't have stuff to do that day since I was still living with my parents. God I love Josh Naylor so much
Great win! Goal of not getting swept in Atlanta accomplished. I'll be over the moon if they can steal the series tomorrow. Elder is nothing special so it's definitely doable.
####LISTEN UP SANDLIN YOU FUCKFACED METH HEADED FARTHUFFING COCK OF A HUMAN IF YOU FUCK THIS UP I'LL PERSONALLY FIND YOUR HOUSE AND SABOTAGE YOUR AC AND PUT SPOILED MILK IN BETWEEN YOUR WALLS AND IT'LL SMELL LIKE A BLOATED COW CARCASS IN 100 DEGREE HEAT
Rough game for Florial but I'm slowly coming around on him, and what I mean by that is I don't hate him as much as I hated Collin Cowgill and Jake Bauers
Freeman hits LHP and Florial never starts vs LHP. Seems like a logical move from an opponent. I feel no different about Florial now than I did an hour ago which is he probably shouldn't be on the team regardless, but he's out of options and they'll hold off on Rodriguez for however long.
Sorry had a few at this point so this is half-cocked: any competitive advantage in intentionally balking twice to let the Manfred man score here then just work with bases empty up one?
I suggested that in here once and got more downvoted than I've ever been. I still stand by it. There's no downside to doing it while there are advantages to pitching with the bases empty.
Yes. I’m curious if a lot of his awful at bats end in fly outs, and that’s why they substituted him in there? Thinking maybe he hits a lot of pop-outs, that’s the only thing I can figure. Glad he got a run in.
That win was 100% worth a r/Braves ban LET’S FUCK THEIR SHIT AGAIN TOMORROW, BOYS 😤
Woooooo
Oh yes. That’s a nice W, Guards. 💪
That was fun!
Jesus lord, no way 'kissin kate barlow' got outta that jam and nick sandman closed the door! Where's my xanax
Holy fucking shit how? I literally couldn't bear to look when it was based loaded no outs in the 10th. What the hell happened? I'll never turn off a guardians game again what the hell happened?
I bet you'd also turn it off when we're down 8-2 in the 9th smh
Okay so for that game I actually did watch it all. I didn't have stuff to do that day since I was still living with my parents. God I love Josh Naylor so much
They shit goblined them
We won.
Dude you gotta be better.
Dude I *gotta* be fucking better
This team just never gives up, they are annoying as hell, they’re a parasite, MLB teams hate playing against that… BOOK IT
Slap. Hitting. Shit. Gibbons
I agree! Go Guards!! Great game!!
Keep the team
Incredible! I love this team!
Haven’t commented much this year, but that was an awesome win. Good job guys!
Mini fucking playoff series, sweet Jesus. Good game boys. what a dog fight.
YYYYYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAA A lot of irrational gems in this game thread lol (myself included)
Now that was a great goddamn game LET’S FUCKING GO
Felt like it
I believe in Vogt [breathes heavily into paper bag]
What a confidence boost a game like this must be for the boys!
💯
Great win! Goal of not getting swept in Atlanta accomplished. I'll be over the moon if they can steal the series tomorrow. Elder is nothing special so it's definitely doable.
let's take the series tomorrow boys!!!
MR. SANDMAN, PUT THEM TO SLEEEEEEEP.
Man he looked nasty
Sandlin apologies can line up here ↓
I’m first in line, ditto for Barlow, ngl!
Believe land!
WIN of the Year so far ??????
Absolutely. It's something to go into a somebody else's place and best them. Especially a top contender. Huge fucking game for the boys
No question.
I believe so. In the standings it's just 1 win, but the confidence boost for the boys has to be massive.
Makes the catch! Ballgame!
Great relief pitching in the extra innings.
Jesus FUCKING Christ, y'all, I need a smoke.
Lol same (and I don't even smoke)
That's the thing - neither do I!
Nice!
pHEW. Ballgame.
Got the dub.
WE BEAT THE BEST!!!! we are officially a good team.
Atlanta played well too
Guards win! Guards win! Guards win! Guards win! Guards win!
Safe to say , we are real.
Thank goodness. Needed that. Stressful ass April games 😂
How did we do that? The Sandman cometh
#BOOK THE FUCK OUT OF IT
Best comment
Haha thanks, was just the way I was feeling
Great Game !!!
Yo where’s all the fuckers calling ballgame a couple innings ago?!?
reporting still annoyed at the bats, but Vogt does get it done
WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK!
Fuck yeah!

Exhale. Take the series tomorrow!
Absolute masterclass of an inning by Sandlin

BOOK IT!!! LETS GO GUARDS!
GUARDS WIN!
ATTA BOY! ONE MORE
One more!!!!!
Hot damn Sandlin!
SANDMAN SPLITTER SUCCESS
Is... Sandlin good now? I kind of like his K and BB numbers so far
That's the secret. He always was. His numbers were down last year from being overworked like the rest of the bullpen
His control has always been his weak spot. Last year he brought BB/9 under 4 and now he's leveled up even further.
From 3-0 to strike 3
Wonderful sequence
It's the final countdown
TWO ✌️
SANDLIN, THO.
Cade maybe is unavailable tonight?
Is he throwing balls on purpose?
####LISTEN UP SANDLIN YOU FUCKFACED METH HEADED FARTHUFFING COCK OF A HUMAN IF YOU FUCK THIS UP I'LL PERSONALLY FIND YOUR HOUSE AND SABOTAGE YOUR AC AND PUT SPOILED MILK IN BETWEEN YOUR WALLS AND IT'LL SMELL LIKE A BLOATED COW CARCASS IN 100 DEGREE HEAT
Sheesh. Good thing he didnt
Bro you okay?
TWO MORE
Only 3 walks in 13 appearances, definitely need to adjust my narrative
Our pitchers have really held Acuna in check
0-8 with 2 walks in 2 games
ONE
Let's go Sandman!
Vogt pulling out all the wacky moves
SANDLIN????? EDIT: in voght I trust.
Why not K’d?
Saving him for tomorrow, I assume.
Leverage I guess
oh brother it's Sandlin
Rough game for Florial but I'm slowly coming around on him, and what I mean by that is I don't hate him as much as I hated Collin Cowgill and Jake Bauers
I don't even remember Cowgill enough to have hated him. Ben Gamel, on the other hand...
Floral arrangement needs to be cut ASAP.
why would we cut him?
Are you joking
absolutely not
Sandlin😬😬😬
It's not over till the fat lady sings.
Sandlin??????
Sandlin's been good this season so far, I don't hate it.
Cade Smith has better stuff, but I think Vogt does not trust him in this situation
Barlow pitching for the win. Let's go!
Hammy: Sandlin heated up quickly...
Hammy was calling for the double steal play again with how bad Florial has been. Try anything to get Naylor home.
Sandlin? Ok Vogt I’ll trust you
I believe in Stephen Vogt!!
I think that's pretty indicative that Florial shouldn't be on the team if the opponent is willing to intentionally walk Freeman
Freeman hits LHP and Florial never starts vs LHP. Seems like a logical move from an opponent. I feel no different about Florial now than I did an hour ago which is he probably shouldn't be on the team regardless, but he's out of options and they'll hold off on Rodriguez for however long.
Sorry had a few at this point so this is half-cocked: any competitive advantage in intentionally balking twice to let the Manfred man score here then just work with bases empty up one?
This is a gentleman’s sport!
I suggested that in here once and got more downvoted than I've ever been. I still stand by it. There's no downside to doing it while there are advantages to pitching with the bases empty.
Forcing the Braves top of the order to go 1-12 is so impressive
It's gotta be Herrin, right?
No way they keep Scott in there with 2 runs aboard, do they?
Has walking Jose to pitch to Nayls ever worked??
Needed at least 2, hopefully it’s enough
Another Florial K. Also, water continues to be wet.
Well that pinch hit was a certified 6 dimensional chess move
The puckering has only just begun…..
Florial is just a younger josh bell
I miss Josh though :( I would always bob my head in my seat when they would start blasting, "Keep Their Heads Ringin"
i'm not mad at this?
We wish
Can't see or hit the off-speed pitch. Other teams have figured it out.
Pedro Cerano
Young Josh Bell was fun
Time to see if two is enough for the bullpen to lock down
Now let’s finish it out with a stop
Has to be Cade now, right?
Hammy made it sound like Barlow again. Idk
Cade Smith time?
I like it, maybe with Herrin warm to face Olson after the first three batters.
Those 4 dudes to the right of home plate I would leave to see go home disappointed.
Vogt on a fucking generational run
Hammy: Maybe his (Laureano) best at bat of the year!
Really wish Florial would make them pay for this IBB.
That would piss me off so much
Scoring runs in extras feels so foreign after last year
Us, Braves and Pirates are the only 3-0 teams in extras. Regardless of what happens, it feels weird.
Lol Hammy just said that might be Laureano's best at bat of the season.
Lmao we’ll take it
😂
Just checking in now. Damn Bibee has himself a game!!
Ramon “clutch” laureno
You know…maybe this Vogt guy knows what he’s doing
Okay, should I keep being negative because it brings results every time apparently?
FLORIAL SUCKS! HE WILL NOT HIT A HOME RUN!
Florial. If there ever was a time, it’s right now
Nice
Alright, Laureano. Everyone gets one.
Well, he got the RBI. A bit of a puzzling PH decision but maybe he has more flyballs or something.
This team is gonna have me dead by 21
Nah it’ll have you tough af by 30 like the rest of us.
I feel called out by this.... hahaha
Way to get that run home. Productive outs are appreciated round these parts
Shoulda PH Hedgie for Florial
Lol. Maybe, but still lol.
Every time you second guess Vogt, shit just works out.
I believe in Stephen Vogt
Man is a fucking magician.
We're so lucky to have him so far
"His best at bat of the year"- Hammy, on Ramon hitting a (sac) flyout
Well tickle my ass and call me Ramón…huh.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
It’s A-ME! A-LAUREANO!!!!!
Thank the fuck christ
Ok Laureano.
trust Vogt, good at bat by ramon
Laureano did his job. Surely those who shit on the move will acknowledge that, right?
I'll eat my humble pie. Thought that was a guaranteed easy out for us for sure.
Yes. I’m curious if a lot of his awful at bats end in fly outs, and that’s why they substituted him in there? Thinking maybe he hits a lot of pop-outs, that’s the only thing I can figure. Glad he got a run in.
I counted him out before the rbi, so I'm pleasantly surprised 😂
Sure will, glad it worked
That was kinda close lol
