00:00But I do hope we get like half of these series going three games. I'm not sure that this
00:08is going to be one of them. The Padres and the Braves. Michael King dominated the Braves.
00:13The same problem Atlanta has had all season long reared its head again yesterday. And
00:17it's Matt honestly I'm not going to indict the Braves. I've talked about this previously
00:22on the show on anything. I mean they have lost so many players. Their best player is
00:26not playing again in the postseason. Their best pitcher is not there. And once every
00:32four or five games Matt the Braves are getting shut out. It happened again yesterday. Michael
00:35King shut them out. My guess is they'll score some runs today. The total is six and a half
00:40in the game they play today. And you know certainly you know no Chris Sale even in this
00:44one too. I mean I don't know what there's left to say. Honestly Brian Snicker could
00:48be one of the managers of the year candidates this year. But I don't think they're beating
00:52San Diego in this series. Yeah I'd be surprised. This was the one series going in where I thought
00:57OK you know Padres are going to win this series. I felt pretty good about it. But you know
01:02to me the ray of hope going into this game for them is the Padres were you know at least
01:08by some advanced stats slightly statistically below average against lefties which is why
01:14that sale injury was so just so huge. But I think that the you know the Braves certainly
01:20they're like you said I think they're going to get on the scoreboard. I think they're
01:23going to score some runs. It's not going to be quite as dominant as it was yesterday for
01:28Padres pitching. But I think they're going to have a hard time. I just think this is
01:33the one situation where I look at it and say well this is the better team. And you know
01:37this is where you know you look at playing at home. I don't think it hurts. I don't know
01:42how much it helps but it doesn't hurt for the Padres. And I would expect them to put
01:47this away. But at the same time basically like we said at the opening I'm open for
01:52anything happening. I think this will be a very interesting and fun game tonight.
