Ah yes, exactly as you'd expect this matchup to start, with Nola giving up a HR, single, and a double before getting an out.

Braves might regret not chasing Nola here considering Four Inning Folty's starting but I'll take the runs

Every single year the Ivy League takes a break from fucking up the world through its various alumni to fuck up everyone's bracket instead.

Be real nice if the Phillies just decided to roll over, but then they're only 2 back of the wild card

I legit would take few people with the bases loaded over markakis, because he's more than willing to grind a walk or bullshit single out of any at bat. I like Joyce but Markakis doesnt GIDP often

Nice first inning for Folty, maybe he can actually pitch a few innings.

Folty is maybe the worst hitter I've ever seen take a major league AB.

I like how every single 0-2 pitch Folty throws is so far off the plate no hitter alive would consider swinging at it
