This was a train wreck that started for the Atlanta Braves even before the first pitch was thrown when it was learned that the “Tomahawk Chop” would at worst be altered.
Then the first inning happened…
The Cardinals put a 10 spot on the board. No that is not a typo. 10 runs before the Braves ever grabbed a bat. The most ever in a 1st inning in a playoff game. It also tied for the most runs ever scored in any playoff game.
Everything you could ever dream of going against the Atlanta Braves happened…and then some.
