It only took 18 innings but the Astros get by the Braves. Bring it on St. Louis!

Was this a record number of innings?

What a pathetic performance (again) by my Braves. Farnsworth gives up a grand slam in the eight and a homer in the ninth to tie it up.

I will say that the rest of the Braves bullpen pitched great for 8 extra innings, but unfortunately so did the Astros bullpen. A game to remember... Longest postseason game in history.

Bobby Cox is a JOKE. He needs to be replaced. 14 division titles, and one World Championship. Ridiculous.

I hope Braves fans stay way EN MASSE down there until the GM realizes that it's time for a change.

And if I was Mrs. Cox I'd be afraid, because she's in real danger of a southern-fried butt whippin'

Go Astros !!!

I love to see the Braves lose. Has something to do with an idiot named Turner.

Bobby Cox is not the reason we lost this game, it is incredible what he has been able to accomplish these 14 years. This year we have a ton of rookies and we still won our eleventh division title in a division with all .500+ teams.

This year we just never found a closer, and tonight Farnsworth let us down with a 6-1 lead in the eighth. Bobby will retire when he wants to, and he will likely win Manager of the Year this year for his performance with the rookies.

Ageed. And the "stos" pen was so spent that had to bring Clemens back . . . the guys a machine. Sometime.
