There is nothing better in baseball than a winner-take-all playoff game. And last night at Truist Park in Atlanta, the home Braves' fans were treated to an unbelievable performance. They defeated their NL East rivals, the Philadelphia Phillies, 6-2 and will move on to play the Dodgers in the Divisional round. The Braves were sparked by Atlanta-native “Money” Michael Harris, who blasted a 3-run homer in the bottom of the 1st inning off of Aaron Nola. Nola got the start over the Phillies' ace Zack Wheeler, who came in the game after Nola gave up 3 runs in 1.2 IP. The Braves countered Nola with little-used Ray Kerr. Kerr, 32, only had 9 regular-season appearances in 2026, and before that hadn't pitched since 2024 (Tommy John surgery). Kerr held it down for the Braves. He went 3.1 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 2 Ks. Kerr set the tone on the mound for the Braves bullpen. Grant Holmes, Robert Suarez, Didier Fuentes, Dylan Dodd, and ultimately Braves' ace Chris Sale closed out the game. The Phillies never got started and ended a rollercoaster season that I feel may close the window for Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, Trea Turner, and Zack Wheeler to win it all in the city of brotherly love. In addition to Harris, Ozzie Albies and Matt Olson hit homers for the Braves. Marico Durbon flashed his gold-glove leather — the Braves' defense was outstanding. It was do-or-die, and the Braves move on.Looking ahead to the Divisional Rounds, which start Saturday, the Braves will face the Dodgers, the White Sox will face the Guardians, the Padres will face the Brewers, and the Yankees will face the Rays. Special shout-out to Sed from Black at the Ballpark, Coach E from Black Baseball Media, and Kaytlin from MLB for contributing to this episode.
