Something happened on the way to this postseason. Young pitchers joined the rotation and became a force. They stopped walking the park. They started to display their arsenal and their control.

I hear you laughing, “yeah didn’t we hang 29 on them once?” Yes that definitely happened. The Braves have slashed an absurd .280/.363/.489 line versus Miami, averaging 6.8 runs a game. However, without the 29-run outburst, that number is 4.
