Alex Anthopoulos needs to win GM of the year. The Braves lost 2/3 of their outfield(Acuna and Ozuna)so he goes out and brings in Joc,Soler,Duvall and of course Rosario who all contributed in helping the Braves get to the World Series

The Braves winning IS right, after what Major League Baseball did to Georgia by moving the all star game!! I wonder what Biden will have to say about this!! 🤣🤣🤣 Justice is served!! And I don’t mean, social Justice!!!
Here in Baltimore, I've seen more broadcast of Braves games on TBS than I have Orioles games. They are seemingly my 2nd favorite team (behind my O's) because of it
Matzek truly saved the day. I thought there would be no way we escaped the 7th without the score being at least 4-3 let alone tied, and he shut the door to any comeback.
Matzek had one of the most clutch pitching performances in recent memory. Most people, including myself, had written these guys off after losing Acuna. Oh well, serves me wrong. Go win it all, boys.
@@brianemerich2524 I think the phillies had a shot and a half during that 17 game pattern streak but they just couldn't get it done without scherzer and turner
I remember telling a friend in 99, "this might be the last time the Braves make it to the World Series." It's really special to see them make it back. Now it's time to party like it's 1995.
I was 9 1991 and lived in Atlanta from 1990-1993. I can remember we had Braves day at school and Supercuts would cut a tomahawk into your hair. I was so mad my mom wouldn't let me do it😂 it was a big thing, I remember commercials for it on TV even😂
He definitely should get MVP for his big bat. Always wondered why we didn't send for him sooner. He's here to stay we handle business with the Astro's. Definitely will be a series to watch they won't go down easy 🤟🏾💙💯
Yeah, as a Braves fan, know nothing about that guy but what a talent helping make up for Acuna or Osuna. By the way, having Donaldson for a year was a blast. Hope you appreciated him when he plays.
that 7th inning was the most crucial moment for the braves this whole postseason. That determined the outcome. The dodgers coulda easily taken the lead right there. if this thing wouldve got pushed to a game 7, it would've been all over for the braves and a historical back to back choke job.
After the third out in that inning, dodgers lost all the momentum they had and couldn’t recover. Same thing happened with Boston in game six in the exact same inning I believe. The strike him out, throw him out was the nail in the coffin for the Red Sox.
@@baptisemali783 Completely agree! Matzek came in determined and got the job done. I’ve been a Braves fan all my life but it’s been hard to see them choke year after year recently but it was great to see them seal the deal last night!

@@joseosornia9164 We are embarrassed... we were a World Series contender ourselves not too long ago. Worst owner in sports; was willing to let the team fall apart while other small market teams like Oakland remain competitive. Fortunately I grew up in Houston and am also an Astros fan.

Go!!!Braves!!!!! Many thought it was impossible for them to win. But they didn't give up. And now they have overcome many hardships and won. I was impressed and encouraged by the appearance. I love Braves!!!
Greetings from the UK - Braves fan since the "Worst to First" series 1991 - heard it all on my radio, great times, great players, Maddux, Glavine et al .. but this year tops all .. Didn't hit .500 til 6th Aug Wow .. Phenomenal ... "We are such stuff as dreams are made" -- Will tune in Tuesday, wearing ma pearls -- Chop Chop Bravos, We can do this!!
The ump was giving calls to the Dodgers all night and the announcers couldn’t shake their Dodger bias from their commentary but the Braves pulled off what nobody thought they would. The Braves got redemption for last years NLCS.
@@anthonyr587 oh don’t even start. Dodgers had twice the payroll the Braves do and the Braves had their best player out for the season long before the playoffs.

So many saves and clutch moments for the whole team and it couldn't happen to a better bunch of guys ....it's been 22 years since our last world series and as a lifelong braves fan I'm ecstatic! Great job by our whole team and management to make this happen GO BRAVES

@Tim Colby That’s for sure: the underrated players on the Astros are the pitchers Framber Reyes and Luis Garcia. They stepped up when they needed to. Garcia was practically pitching a no hitter through 5 innings
Yo, congrats Braves fans, from this Mets fan. Wanted to see the Dodgers knocked off, especially. ( And Houston, but...) Plus I'm mad happy for the humble giant that plays first base for you guys. If anybody, Freeman truly deserves this shot at a WS ring.
Dodgers fans, your team played a great game. Chris Taylor's 3 home runs in Game 5 will live on as a memorable moment in MLB history. That's a Reggie Jackson moment that deserves kudos. Thank you for an NLCS well played. Sincerely, A Yankees and Braves fan.
Dodgers fan thank you it was a great series congrats on heading to the world series its a hard pill to sollow but we'll get over it good luck in the world series against houston
It happened just like 2016 and 2017. Cubs beat the Dodgers to advance to the WS, and the next year, Dodgers beat Cubs to advance to the WS. Well Atlanta, it was your turn, congrats and respect. Just like the Dodgers won it for Kobe last year, try and win for Hank Aaron.
Congrats on your version of winning it all . Typical no class Gonads fan. You had your shot and well …. Good luck next year with all those geezers …. A weak farm system…. And a cheap owner. So congrats 🤭 see you with your 90 losses next year ✅
LETTTSSS GOOOO! 🍾 Everyone counted the Braves out after Acuña went down. AA went and made moves which took the Braves from fighting to go above .500 to now making the World Series. Shoutout to Matzek for that insane 7th inning stand. Braves are still the underdogs against the Astros but they’re scary right now.
frl at the trade deadline everyone said the Braves should be sellers , everyone was confused when AA started making moves… no one believed in the ATL but guess what the braves are 4 games away from the big one
5:04 Riley's snag of a bad hop liner and losing the handle caused a bad throw that Freeman dug up and stayed on the bag was huge. Riley and his hitting is a big reason for the Braves success all year. Go get um Braves.
Yeah no doubt. He throws just 1 bad pitch it’s a tie game and we probably lose and it’s Game 7. That was THE BEST clutch pitching with no outs and 2 on to strike out 3 guys!!!! OMG…..
Eddie! Loved him as a Twin, always knew he'd thrive under the spotlight. Some guys are built for the big stage, even if their actual numbers are slightly above average.
Honestly after we finally beat the dodgers in the NLCS I was completely satisfied with whatever happened in the world series given my expectations after losing Acuna. Still, with this the Braves as world champs and my uga dawgs undefeated going into the SEC championship this has been a sports year beyond my wildest dreams. Hope it stays that way 🙏 🤞
Pretty much yeah. Dodgers didn't had it coming to this series. But I ain't mad at all. It's a sport, and there will be a winner and a loser at the end of the day, whether we like it or not. For broken Dodger fans: what do champs do? We move on. Let's re-evaluate everything. Dodgers can use this series as material to construct the 2022 roster. We have to accept failure to get better. It's alright.
Words can’t describe the energy I felt watching this in a bar surrounded by other Braves fans. It still doesn’t feel real. I’ve been a Braves fan for 28 years now, through thick and thin. This is what it’s all about right here. Let’s make it count!
Thanks for the series, Dodgers. With all the roster losses y'all had y'all didn't go quietly. Maybe a postseason trilogy is on the horizon next year, who knows. Take care of yourselves. :) Alrighty, Astros, time for us to duel. It's been awhile since we last met in postseason action; I still have that Chris Burke walkoff home run in the 18th inning of the '05 NLDS game 4 in my head. Let's make it a World Series to remember, shall we?! Good luck to y'all. :)
As an Astros fan I welcome this series matched win or lose I know it’ll be a good series with both teams willing to prove something good luck to both teams my friend.
Dodgers fan congrats on heading to the world series you guys were the better injuries got the best of us it was a good series please beat those cocky astros and end your Atlanta curse I'll be rooting for you 😁👍
@@parisbeech2180 how is Houston cocky? They have one little scandal and they're hated by all of baseball. Meanwhile the Yankees and Co get a pass. The Astros are just unfazed
Rosario is definitely their mvp candidate, but matzek was absolutely locked in last night. 16 pitches, 14 strikes, and 4 straight strikeouts. Incredible
Ok, so my Dodgers had a great season. 106 wins, Wild Card winners, beat the Giants, Braves got us this time. Congrats to their team, great performance. Btw I’m rooting for y’all to beat Houston 🤣
Congrats to Braves. I just knew they were going to be tough no matter who won the SF/LA series. Now go beat the Astros too. Good luck. Signed: SF GIants fan.
Dodger fan here. Going to cheer for the Braves in the world series. That's a great team. Great playing not luck that got their wins. I love the Dodgers but Atlanta played better.
I'm a Cubs fan, but man what a performance from all the Braves. Just shows what a winning culture, created by Bobby Cox & John Schuerholz 30 YEARS AGO, can achieve. I can't applaud this team enough. Now go & beat the Astros please.
Those three strike outs with runners on 2nd and 3rd was wild. Incredible pitching in a insanely clutch moment.
Courage.
wish more people were talking about this. most clutch moment in the series
Turning point of that innings and the game was by Tyler Matzek
Luke Jackson has tried to throw this series
I was in AWE when that happened. Just stunned
Freddie's face at the end there made me nearly tear up. Well deserved, big man.

As a Rangers and Braves fan, it's really nice to see my boy Ron Washington in the world series again🥲😭🥲😭
Ron washington is the coolest third base coach i've ever seen, dude just radiates old man swag
I will watch these highlights forever.
Got eem...
Congrats Braves! Pirates fan here hope you guys win it all. Chop on!!
thanks bro
RESPECT!🤝❤️💯
Respect I pray we take them down in 5 that would be awesome 🙌🏾💙😎💯
I’d be very embarrassed being a pirates fan… AA team of MLB
@@joseosornia9164 We are embarrassed... we were a World Series contender ourselves not too long ago. Worst owner in sports; was willing to let the team fall apart while other small market teams like Oakland remain competitive.
Fortunately I grew up in Houston and am also an Astros fan. The Astros stunk when the Pirates were good. They used to be in the same division, and I was so happy when they moved to the AL so I could cheer for both teams.
Go!!!Braves!!!!!
Many thought it was impossible for them to win.
But they didn't give up.
And now they have overcome many hardships and won.
I was impressed and encouraged by the appearance.
I love Braves!!!
Giants fan here. Rooting you braves on . Go get that ring! Big fan of freeman he much deserves a ring.
Greetings from the UK - Braves fan since the "Worst to First" series 1991 - heard it all on my radio, great times, great players, Maddux, Glavine et al .. but this year tops all .. Didn't hit .500 til 6th Aug Wow .. Phenomenal ... "We are such stuff as dreams are made" -- Will tune in Tuesday, wearing ma pearls -- Chop Chop Bravos, We can do this!!
they had a great season but it’s now philadelphias time to shine in the NL east!
Matzek saved the day for the Braves! Great clutch pitching!
On behalf of 99% of the MLB, win it all Braves. You got this
ok
Go ASTROS!!!
People really hate on the Astros.
The Astros are not gonna be denied..
As a Mets fan GO ASTROS braves got lucky degrom didn't pitch in second half of season or the Mets woulda won the division
The ump was giving calls to the Dodgers all night and the announcers couldn’t shake their Dodger bias from their commentary but the Braves pulled off what nobody thought they would. The Braves got redemption for last years NLCS.
I did feel that in certain times like they wanted a game 7 smh.
The MLB seems to have a bias against the Braves
The Braves are playing against a team that had like half the roster on IR. Lol
@@anthonyr587 staying healthy is part of being a good player and a good ball club
@@anthonyr587 oh don’t even start. Dodgers had twice the payroll the Braves do and the Braves had their best player out for the season long before the playoffs. This was supposed to be the best Dodgers team ever on paper. Don’t even try to diminish the massive mountain the Braves had to climb to get here.
I will gladly trade an All Star Game for a World Series...
I would trade a World Series for equal voting rights…
Nah, I rather see a exhibition game
@@golf1886 do you have an ID
Then you can can effin vote!
@@golf1886 Now you have both. Enjoy the game and next election take your id to the poles and cast your vote.
Who wouldn’t ?
I couldn't be happier. So many years they should have been in the world series. So close so many time. I hope they go all the way
So many saves and clutch moments for the whole team and it couldn't happen to a better bunch of guys ....it's been 22 years since our last world series and as a lifelong braves fan I'm ecstatic! Great job by our whole team and management to make this happen GO BRAVES
JOCTOBER, EDDIE BASEBALL AND THE WILL SMITH LEADS THE BRAVES TO THE WORLD SERIES WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE
@LethArctico how could I forget!?
And Tyler Magic
@@Noledad77 facts
Take the all star game away from us and we’ll host the World Series instead
FR‼️
Take that PC!
Well remembered!
That part!!
Dont worry you guys will host the all- star game soon
Thank you Atlanta, this win means so much. Now go the distance and win the big one - from a Giants fan
Same from a Cardinals fan
Astros will do a sweeping of the braves and take out trash trash and trash trash
I’m a Braves fan thanks. That’s was a awful check swing call against the SF.
@@jesushinojosa5102 we’ll see,m
See*
As a long time Eddie Rosario fan and twins fan this makes me very happy
Eddie Rosario was electrifying but Matzek's 7th inning was the stuff of legends...
Eddie Rosario deserves the MVP award, and Im just happy Braves are going to the world series and Im rooting for Atlanta to win it this year and upset Houston and all their fans
@@shizumi...8254 in 95 braves had won four division titles ;they won the world series .this 21 team have four division titles deja vu for a world series title! Thomas greco
We don't care in Houston. 1 baseball title was enough but we'll take another
Its very unfair we have to wait until next year World series to see the cry babies vs the cheaters.
@Tim Colby That’s for sure: the underrated players on the Astros are the pitchers Framber Reyes and Luis Garcia. They stepped up when they needed to. Garcia was practically pitching a no hitter through 5 innings
@@albertoaguirre7114 Those cheaters are proving the belong, they ain’t want hit wonders.
Seeing BOTH the Yankees AND the Dodgers get knocked out of the MLB playoffs is like having Santa accidentally stop at your house twice in one year!
I'm a Yankees fan but I still like your comment :)
@@ShiksaWithChutzpah1 y’all r the definition of evil.
@@vardrids You say it like it's a bad thing. :)
FACTS lol
imagine being pressed cuz they’re better than your favorite team lol
Dodgers: $267 million
Braves: $147 million
Is there a specific website that keeps track of this? I want to check it out for all the teams.
Yo, congrats Braves fans, from this Mets fan. Wanted to see the Dodgers knocked off, especially. ( And Houston, but...) Plus I'm mad happy for the humble giant that plays first base for you guys. If anybody, Freeman truly deserves this shot at a WS ring.
Congrats to the Braves on advancing to the World Series. Will be rooting for y’all! Congrats to the Dodgers on an awesome season, good luck next year!
Dodgers had a good season I'll be rooting for them too cant stand houston
Dodgers fans, your team played a great game. Chris Taylor's 3 home runs in Game 5 will live on as a memorable moment in MLB history. That's a Reggie Jackson moment that deserves kudos. Thank you for an NLCS well played. Sincerely, A Yankees and Braves fan.
Thank you for being a great fan. The Braves won a well deserved spot into the World Series! I will be rooting for them to win against the Astros.
@@RealNerdyProductions Respect ⚾🤝
Their manager blew it.. How do you not have a lefty ready to face Rosario and Freeman in the 4th?!..
@@jacobjones5269 😂😂😂😂😂😂 because that's classic dave Roberts he is clueless he needs to be fired
Dodgers fan thank you it was a great series congrats on heading to the world series its a hard pill to sollow but we'll get over it good luck in the world series against houston
There was a part of me that feared Atlanta would choke a series…again. Thank goodness they didn’t.
It happened just like 2016 and 2017. Cubs beat the Dodgers to advance to the WS, and the next year, Dodgers beat Cubs to advance to the WS. Well Atlanta, it was your turn, congrats and respect. Just like the Dodgers won it for Kobe last year, try and win for Hank Aaron.
Down with the Astros. Do it for Hank Aaron and do it for Kobe. 🙏🙏
Lol kobe like win a full 162 games season ws
@@emmanuelelozano 🤔. Were they the only team that got that format? No.
God bless you and have a good night.
I cannot stop watching all these highlights. Love this team so much
Huge congrats, Braves, from a Mariners fan in Georgia. Enjoying cheering y’all on with my Braves friends
As a Giants fan I can say unequivocally this is the best birthday present I have ever received
Happy birthday+ change ur name
Of course a Giants fan would be a fan of Hitler smh.
Happy bday from a braves fan and change your name
Congrats on your version of winning it all . Typical no class Gonads fan. You had your shot and well …. Good luck next year with all those geezers …. A weak farm system…. And a cheap owner. So congrats 🤭 see you with your 90 losses next year ✅
Happy birthday from a braves fan
Also you might want to change your first name
As a Giants fan, I'm so happy right now! I'm rooting for you Braves! Go and win this thing!
Congrats to the Braves on making the World Series. Nice to see Giants legend Will Smith get the final outs.
Not to mention our guy Ehire Adrianza with a key pinch hit. Also, if Atlanta wins the WS, I think Pablo may get a ring as well right :)
Adam Duvall too.
Braves gonna get swept in the world series
@@greenspidey Bruh lol
@@Not_Mobile lol I'm jus a pissed Mets fan here lol
The strikeouts by Matzek were a thing of beauty! I was on the edge of my seat and I was not even a fan of either team. Magic Matzek!
Well well well, Braves.... So we meet again in October (Astros fan here).... Vintage 90s baseball.....
one word, eight letters: C H E A T E R S
@@jackfullerton5762 did you write that while crying in the corner?? 😭🤠😂🤣
LETTTSSS GOOOO! 🍾 Everyone counted the Braves out after Acuña went down. AA went and made moves which took the Braves from fighting to go above .500 to now making the World Series. Shoutout to Matzek for that insane 7th inning stand. Braves are still the underdogs against the Astros but they’re scary right now.
frl at the trade deadline everyone said the Braves should be sellers , everyone was confused when AA started making moves… no one believed in the ATL but guess what the braves are 4 games away from the big one
@Johnny Sins I don’t doubt you will see this ratio.
5:04 Riley's snag of a bad hop liner and losing the handle caused a bad throw that Freeman dug up and stayed on the bag was huge. Riley and his hitting is a big reason for the Braves success all year. Go get um Braves.
So happy I flew from Portland to watch this game live. Go braves
West coat Portland or East coast? You must be rich in any case!
@@clarkeugene5727 West Coast. Definitely cost a pretty penny, especially cuz it was all booked within 24 hrs LOL. Well worth it tho, yolo
@@Mason.Becker Okay then, got it. But it was less painful seeing that your team won. Happy for you sir!
@@clarkeugene5727 thanks man
Met’s fan here. Nice job, Atlanta. Rooting for you guys. For the next week or so, I’m an honorary Brave’s fan.
As a cubs fan, i was happy for freeman! He deserves a world series, i love his attitude on and off the field. He reminds me off rizzo with the cubs.
“Thank you ATL!”
- Giants Fans
*Thank You ATL!
-everyone but dodger fans
Qmb31 right on!
thank you for shutting up the dodgers fans, it only takes a pandemic for those losers to win, but now it shows they aint winners
GiAnT fAnS tHaNk YoU! 🤣 🤡
no problem!
Matzek 3 strike outs with runners on 2nd and 3rd was the key moment of the game tbh
Yeah no doubt. He throws just 1 bad pitch it’s a tie game and we probably lose and it’s Game 7. That was THE BEST clutch pitching with no outs and 2 on to strike out 3 guys!!!! OMG…..
Eddie! Loved him as a Twin, always knew he'd thrive under the spotlight. Some guys are built for the big stage, even if their actual numbers are slightly above average.
Very disappointed as a Twins fan to see him leave without a decent offer this past off season
I can’t tell you how happy I am as a Braves fan. Our second half of the season was a huge turnaround
Honestly after we finally beat the dodgers in the NLCS I was completely satisfied with whatever happened in the world series given my expectations after losing Acuna. Still, with this the Braves as world champs and my uga dawgs undefeated going into the SEC championship this has been a sports year beyond my wildest dreams. Hope it stays that way 🙏 🤞
The Giants-Dodgers series literally broke the entire Dodgers starting pitchers.
Thank you from a Giants fan.
Dodgers fan we shot ourselves in the foot and it cost us this series guess your right giants wore us out
@@elizabethbetty2662 hope you guys have a good 2022
Pretty much yeah. Dodgers didn't had it coming to this series. But I ain't mad at all. It's a sport, and there will be a winner and a loser at the end of the day, whether we like it or not.
For broken Dodger fans: what do champs do? We move on. Let's re-evaluate everything. Dodgers can use this series as material to construct the 2022 roster.
We have to accept failure to get better. It's alright.
That or it was just good baseball all around. Sometimes the better team just finds a way to win.
Completely forgot they took away the All-Star game away from us and now we’re in the World Series lol. Talk about getting the last laugh
When the Dodgers lose everyone else wins. It’s like bama
Exactly!!!
But they both are good accept Bama they great
@@HarlemPSGamer Texas A&M remenber that team 😂😂😂😂😂😂
alabama are the yankees and clemson are the dodgers lol
Na more like when Astros Lose everyone wins.
Astros Braves gonna be a great series!
I wasnt born the last time the braves made it so I'll be watching for sure
I’m a Mets fan but congrats to the Braves I’m happy for Braves fans they deserve it
As a Yankees fan, congratulations Braves! Go get 4 more wins for title!! The Braves have had a great season!
I am right there with you. I have been a Yankees fan since I was a kid. Always liked the Braves also.
I'm surprised you're rooting for them as your team did beat them in 1996 and 1999.
And 1958 when in Milwaukee.
Matzek was a BEAST!!! So clutch
Words can’t describe the energy I felt watching this in a bar surrounded by other Braves fans. It still doesn’t feel real. I’ve been a Braves fan for 28 years now, through thick and thin. This is what it’s all about right here. Let’s make it count!
Don't let this distract you from the fact that the Braves won 88 games and hosted the Dodgers who won 106 games congrats Braves on winning the pennant
Excuses 😉
Braves won the division, Dodgers did not. That has always been the rule, so it is what it is.
Thanks for the series, Dodgers. With all the roster losses y'all had y'all didn't go quietly. Maybe a postseason trilogy is on the horizon next year, who knows. Take care of yourselves. :)
Alrighty, Astros, time for us to duel. It's been awhile since we last met in postseason action; I still have that Chris Burke walkoff home run in the 18th inning of the '05 NLDS game 4 in my head. Let's make it a World Series to remember, shall we?! Good luck to y'all. :)
As an Astros fan I welcome this series matched win or lose I know it’ll be a good series with both teams willing to prove something good luck to both teams my friend.
Dodgers fan congrats on heading to the world series you guys were the better injuries got the best of us it was a good series please beat those cocky astros and end your Atlanta curse I'll be rooting for you 😁👍
Congrats
@@parisbeech2180 how is Houston cocky? They have one little scandal and they're hated by all of baseball. Meanwhile the Yankees and Co get a pass. The Astros are just unfazed
@@Bro_DT Facts. Nobody seems to care that the Yankees and Red Sox were also caught cheating.
As a Dodger fan, Congrats Braves! I'll be rooting for you in the WS. 👊
올 시즌 어려운 상황에서도 최선을 다해 싸워줘서 고맙습니다.
내년에 봐요.
Rosario is definitely their mvp candidate, but matzek was absolutely locked in last night. 16 pitches, 14 strikes, and 4 straight strikeouts. Incredible
It’s amazing how much this game can change in such a small amount of time
I’m a Cubs fan but I am so glad the Dodgers are done!!! Congrats Atlanta
Hank Aaron is smiling right now !
Ok, so my Dodgers had a great season. 106 wins, Wild Card winners, beat the Giants, Braves got us this time. Congrats to their team, great performance. Btw I’m rooting for y’all to beat Houston 🤣
I am loving the play of these Braves. I’ve been watching them for a long time. Go Braves and win it all❤️⚾️⚾️
The whole bar watching went absolutely insane with the last play..
Congrats to Braves. I just knew they were going to be tough no matter who won the SF/LA series. Now go beat the Astros too. Good luck. Signed: SF GIants fan.
Been waiting for the trophy since 1995, when TOM GLAVINE beat the Indians in game 6, as he threw a 1 hitter and the braves won the game 1-0.
Dave Justice says youre welcome :P
@@VoidGhidorah69 yes David Justice hit the only home run of the game in the bottom of the 6th.
Dodger fan here. Going to cheer for the Braves in the world series. That's a great team. Great playing not luck that got their wins. I love the Dodgers but Atlanta played better.
Matzek was a STONE COLD KILLER in the 7th and 8th
I'm a Cubs fan, but man what a performance from all the Braves. Just shows what a winning culture, created by Bobby Cox & John Schuerholz 30 YEARS AGO, can achieve. I can't applaud this team enough. Now go & beat the Astros please.
