The Braves’ paper-thin rotation is the result of two things: Alex Anthopoulos not adding anybody in free agency, and injuries.

The Atlanta Braves might not be expected to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, but Derek Jeter has to know they still expect to.

I do not inherently dislike the Los Angeles Dodgers. I never have disliked the Dodgers. They were the National League team I found the most interesting when I was a kid, and generally rooted for them. I liked Ron Cey, who played third base, like I did. I liked Davey Lopes. I got swept up […]

LOS ANGELES — Josue De Paula popped out as a pinch-hitter for the final out of Game 2, in his major league postseason debut. The comeback attempt fell short, but just by getting into a game at his age was notable. De Paula on Sunday was 21 years, 133 days old, and became only the […]
The Braves got a hero performance on Sunday night and playoff history was made in the process.
