However, the history with Dave Roberts’ team in the NLDS was the hitting, as their offense fired at all cylinders from Game 1 and it doesn’t seem as if they’re going to slow down any time soon.

Then again, if someone can slow down any offense in the world, that’s definitely the Atlanta Braves, as they didn’t allow a single run in 4 out of the 5 games they’ve played in the postseason thus far.
