Baseball Postseason Step One: Settle the Wild Card Games. Step Two: kick off the best-of-five Division Series. Here, we'll review the NLDS between the Cardinals and Braves.

Braves star Ronald Acuna caught a lot of flak, and deservedly so, for failing to bust it out of the box on his 7th-inning would-be double in Game 1. Making matters worse: when he DID reach 2B, he was carelessly doubled off.

1st inning. 10 Cardinals runs, including four off Foltynewicz. Game over before it even starts. Freeman blamed the eventual loss on his own failure to corral a hard smash during the onslaught...but blame lied team-wide.
