Suppose I told you ahead of Wednesday night’s game that:
–Braves pitchers would surrender only five hits on the night;
–The Braves’ starting outfielders would continue to certify the genius of Alex Anthopoulos: Rosario and Duvall would each homer and Soler would reach base four times;
–The Nats’ starting pitcher would only pitch one third of an inning, forcing Dave Martinez to turn to his beleaguered bullpen much earlier than he had planned.
You’d wager a lot of what you own on a Braves win, right?
No, of course you wouldn’t, because you know better than to bet on baseball.
