Braves Win

Braves win in a familiar way while also getting familiar with winning game 1s.

Braves win - Satisfaction was felt when the braves managed to win at least one game against the dodgers in the 2018 nlds. Their bullpen has given up just one run in. Anderson delivered yet another impressive scoreless effort and dansby swanson hit the first of the two home runs that propelled the braves to a 2 0 win over the marlins in game 2 of the national league division series on wednesday afternoon at minute maid park. The braves entered this series having lost eight straight nlds openers.

If they win two more times during this best of five series they will advance to the nl championship series for the first time since 2001 when greg maddux and tom glavine were still headlining their postseason rotations. The landscape is much different this year as both teams match up well against each other in many different aspects. Anderson struck out nine in six innings as the braves snapped their record tying string of losses in 10 consecutive postseason rounds since their last playoff series win in 2001.
