That would be fun.
Never been to a playoff game. It's definitely on my baseball bucket list along with All Star game. I finally got to go to Opening Day this year SI

i got nosebleed seats for game 4 (403 I think) and ill be sitting in my regular season tickets for game 5 (106). being in a 10 person ticket share is great, until the playoffs I got one game for each series and on my own for the others.

I was at the Angels' home opener, but that was three games into the season. Does that count for "Opening Day"? Been to a playoff game, too (two, actually). I would have liked to attend the All Star game in Anaheim last year, but it was crazy trying to get tickets.

My thought was that I didn't feel that it was Opening Day unless the team was 0-0. Other games could have already been played but not for the team you were going to see.
I was at the Astros Opening Day this year and that was after the Japan series, fake Opening Day, and even real Opening Day as they started the season on Friday when about half the teams started on Thursday (and the fluky game on Wednesday and the week before). SI

I'm in 135 if for some reason you want to try to meet up. I'm in a season ticket group as well, but the tickets "belong" to me and a buddy. We get opening day every year and any postseason tickets (obviously this is the first year for that). We also managed to get some extra seats in our section that were randomly alotted to the other members of the ticket group.

Great call by the ump, terrible decision to bunt with the 1st and 3rd, one out and the pitcher due up. It would be a shame if the Braves go out here and Chipper is the goat.

Gonzalez said it was a safety squeeze. Should have pinch hit for Medlen. Ou have 6 relievers for a reason.

These play in games are stupid. Either expand the playoffs with full series' or stick with the same format.

I like the one-game playoff for the wild card. Adds a sense of urgency without watering down the field.

The wild card shouldn't be equal to winning a division title. And now it's not. Plus, one extra team gets hope and I think that's great for baseball in an era where other sports let a lot more teams in than that. |

But you could say that about the first wildcard. If the Braves were to win this game they'd play the Nationals who already finished ahead of them in the regular season. They'd play 5 games but it's still the same concept. I like this format, just go to a 3 game series and put all 3 games at the better team's park, then make the LDS 7 games.

For the second time in three years, the Braves are bumbling their way out of the playoffs.

You needed Kimbrel. Strikeouts are much better at preventing a run scoring from third than ground balls.

Congrats to the Cards. They had the better hitting team. The Braves shot themselves in the foot, but the Cards had to take care of the mistakes, and they did.
