NLCS Game 5 - Open Thread

“Eddie” chants fade in...

MLB: NLCS-Atlanta Braves at Los Angeles Dodgers Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

BRAVES (3) @ DODGERS (1)

FIRST PITCH: 7:08 pm CDT

TV: TBS / TBS - INT

RADIO: ESPN Radio

Atlanta leads 3-1

Eddie Rosario and Ehire Adrianza are one win away from the World Series. The Braves were famously in this position last season, up three games to one in the NLCS, with the Dodgers having openly reached a point where they had been so successful that the pressure just didn’t feel like it was on anymore. L.A. won the final three games, and went on to knock off the Rays in six games to win the 2020 World Series.

The 2021 World Series is less than a week away, and we could have one of our two contenders by the end of the night. Will it be the Braves? They’ve been fired up and hungry all series, and right at the center of it all is Eddie Rosario.

After another monster night in Game 4, Eddie is 10-for-17 with 2 homers, a triple, 6 RBI, a pair of walks, five runs scored, two four-hit games, a steal, and a near-cycle. What?
