I know a lot has happened in the last three days, but let me remind you of what Mike Foltynewicz did last Friday for the Atlanta Braves, in Game 2 of this exciting — yet very stressful — NLDS.
Faced with quickly becoming two games behind in the division series and soon to leave the friendly confines of SunTrust Park, Folty put together one of the best postseason starts by a Braves’ starter in my lifetime —seven innings of pure domination.
His final line: 7 innings, 3 hits, 7 strikeouts
Yes, that final line is impressive, but it was nowhere near the best part of Folty’s incredible outing.
