In this edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Braves Report podcast, beat reporter Justin Toscano, columnist Michael Cunningham and co-host Jay Black take you through the Braves incredible comeback to beat the Phillies in Game 2 of the NLDS.
Our crew will explain why they had almost given up on the Braves and why this game seemed like it was over.
We will discuss Michael Harris’ terrific game-ending play in the ninth inning, Austin Riley’s go-ahead homer and how Max Fried held it together during his first start in a month.
We will also look at why the Phillies left the door open, the implications of this game on the rest of the series and who should start Game 3.
Plus we will get some perspective from the AJC’s Mark Bradley about how this game stacks up to some of the other great wins he’s seen from the Braves.
