Four pitch walk and it appears Suarez has lost his feel for the plate.
Yeah get someone up.
Not sure he’s ever really had it.
He did get two Ks between the first walk and the single.
Today's drinking game: whenever Smoltz says "albeit"
That was really the first batter Suarez lost feel for the zone in my view. Time to get ex-Phillie D'Arnaud out
Travis d'Arnaud

Travis d'Arnaud strikes out swinging.
Philadelphia Phillies
Atlanta Braves
WOW! Got him on swinging on two strikes out of the zone. Phew! I think he has to be done though right? Do you give him one more batter?
Perhaps Ranger’s best quality is that nothing seems to rattle him. He again buckles down to get out of a bases loaded jam
Maybe see if we can get another inning out of him. It feels like the Braves have been bailing Ranger out sometimes. I’d bring in Syndergard for two or three innings.
Has one more strikeouts than walks.
That would be my approach. If you can find a way to get through the 6th inning without using actual relievers you are in somewhat good shape.
Edmundo Sosa

Edmundo Sosa walks.
First walk to a Phillies batter today. Turn it into a run.
Kyle Schwarber
Foul (93.3 mph four-seam fastball)Ball (89.7 mph changeup)Foul bunt (88. mph slider)Called strike (86.4 mph slider)
Kyle Schwarber called out on strikes.
Kyle better wake up soon, we're going to need his bat
So far, 0 for the playoffs
Rhys Hoskins
Ball (85.3 mph slider)Ball (85.8 mph slider)Swinging strike (86.3 mph slider)In play, no out (87. mph slider)
Rhys Hoskins doubles (1) on a line drive to left fielder Robbie Grossman. Edmundo Sosa to 3rd.
And now really everybody hits. woo hoo.
Lets go Rhys!
Hoskins takes two balls and then swings at one outside. Clearly ball three.
Hitting a double on the next pitch redeems him.
