00:00after last night's action, a 6-1 victory for the Dodgers, which moves the Dodgers to a perfect 6-0

00:05and 4-0 at home, and the Atlanta Braves, all five games on the road, all five losses, they can't get

00:11out of their own way. Holmes last night on the mound, four innings pitched, four earned runs,

00:15excuse me, four earned runs, yes, and also four hits given up, but also take a look at Glass now,

00:20the embarrassment of riches, Mark, that the Dodgers have in their starting lineup, not only

00:24the 1-9, but the starting pitching staff. Glass now, five innings pitched, two hits, zero earned

00:28runs, eight Ks, a walk-in-the-park victory once again for the Dodgers, but the bigger focal point

00:33for me is, not the Dodgers winning games, Mark, what's up with the Braves? Well, when you score

00:39one run on 10 hits over 27 innings, probably not gonna win a lot of baseball games, that's a recipe

00:44for failure. Look, this was a team, and no one's panicking yet, right? I mean, DRS is five games

00:51into the season, let's really kind of call this what it is, but this is a Braves team that had

00:57a ton of what ifs coming into the season. What if Matt Olsen returns to the form he had two years

01:02ago? What if Ronald Acuna gets back to being a 40-40 guy? What if Spencer Strider can stay healthy

01:07all year long and return to form? All these what ifs, what if the bullpen holds up? Like,

01:13they had a ton of what ifs. Well, when you have a lot of what ifs, more often than not,

01:18not all of them come true. So, the Braves have to figure out real quick how to put the bat on

01:23the ball. Again, torpedo bat, maybe you should start looking into it. That said, they have to

01:28figure this out and figure it out pretty quick. You can't win the pennant in April, DRS. You

01:32definitely can lose it.
