I love how the astros announcers dont know what a homerun is in their own park🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

I was so confused - these guys are calling a game on regional TV and don't even know that? Have they ever seen a ball hit the foul pole or chalk? Hit line = fair.

[@darianwilliams3452]

I know right those guys were just salty. Why you don’t know the rules

[@Truckerdaddy]

When it comes to homers, if it hits the yellow line and bounces back into play it's not a homer. If it hits and bounces over its a homer. I've seen dozens of homers called doubles on this premise.

[@Imugi007]

You know. I said last night in the comments that Arcia was quickly becoming one of my favorite players because of the way he cheers on his teammates even when he's on the bench. I think I'll change that to he's DEFINITELY one of my favorite players. I thought I was really gonna miss Swanson, but man... Arcia has made that sting more like a mosquito bite.

[@donaldmackerer9032]

Yeah me too. He has done a really good job for the Braves. What a pleasant surprise.

[@zachansen8293]

Seeing Swanson's production per dollar makes it not hurt nearly as much either. The Braves are at the top of the spending that they'll do so the money they would have had to pay Swanson would have come out of some other position.

[@Trey50Daniel]

Honestly I prefer Arcia at this point as long as he's healthy.

[@dirtybirdperson4020]

How could they not know the rules, in this unique park that has to happen multiple times a year

[@Truckerdaddy]

Over the years that call has mostly been a double. It's rare it gets called a homer. MMP has unique home run lines in left field.

[@AyoGemini]

Salty Astros announcers "No its not. That's not a homerun" 😂

[@d.c.barker]

Anybody who's a baseball fan knew that was a homerun...the announcers must've been drunk or something. 🤣 Good win by the Braves...I hope Acuna is alright.

[@SoundFX09]

Notes from the Game: + REYNALDO LOPEZ CONTINUES TO IMPRESS! 6 SHUTDOWN Innings, Allowing Just 4 Hits and 1 Walk while Striking Out 7 Astros en route to a Win, Improving to 2-0 with an ERA of 0.50! And to think... he was expected to be a Bullpen Piece out of Spring Training! - Bummer has been... A REAL BUMMER. He gives up the Shutout, and He's Unable to Finish the 9th Inning, Allowing 2 Runs on 3 Hits, Walking One and Striking Out None. His ERA currently stands at 6.75. If he can't figure himself out soon.... Then Trading away Soroka was a HORRIFIC MISTAKE that needs to be undone. + Thankfully, the Rest of the Bullpen was Great! Matzek, Jimenez, and Iglesias Combined to Pitch a PERFECT FINAL 2 1/3 Innings, Not Allowing a Single Baserunner while Striking Out 3 Additional Astros. Iglesias gets his 4th Save of the Season, Getting Victor Caratini to Ground Out to End the Game! ROTATION TOTAL: 9 Innings, 2 Runs, 7 Hits, 2 Walks, 10 Strike Outs, 1 Home Run Allowed. The Braves got to Hunter Brown when they could, and BEAT DOWN Shawn Dubin in the 9th! + HAVE A NIGHT, ORLANDO ARCIA! 2-3 with a SOLO SUPER MISSILE, Single, Sacrifice Fly, and Totaling 2 RBIs on the Night! Arcia Steps up to a .365 Average, .957 OPS, and 1 Home Run on the Season! + How about Luis Guillorme filling in for Ozzie Today? 1-4 with a 2-Run Ground-Rule Double in the 9th to put the Game Way for Good! Luis stands in with a .286 Average and .715 OPS! + Is Chadwick Tromp Starting to find a Groove? 2-4 with Two Doubles and 2 RBIs! Tromp climbs up to a .235 Average with an OPS of .634! + OTHER NOTABLES: Jarred Kelenic had a 2-4 Night, while Ozuna, Riley, Harris, and Acuna each recorded 1 Hit. Matt Olson, Despite going 0-3, had 2 Walks on the Night, while Riley and Ozuna Recorded 1 Walk Each, Meaning for the Second Straight Game, EVERY Braves' Starter got on Base at some point! + ANOTHER SERIES VICTORY FOR THE BRAVOS, This Time, against the Foe we VANQUISHED for the World Series Title 3 Years Ago! Lopez was EXCELLENT, the Bullpen (Apart from Bummer) was SOLID, The Defense was STOUT, and the Offense Came through when needed. LET'S GO FOR THE SWEEP! - Despite this, The Mets, Philies, and Marlins all manage to keep pace with Victories of their Own, Keeping Atlanta at 2 Games Ahead of Philly, 2 1/2 Ahead of York, 5 Ahead of Washington, and 8 Ahead of Miami. TOMORROW: THE FINAL ROUND of this 3-Game Showdown between the Braves and Astros will take place under the Afternoon Skies of Minute Maid Park. J.P. France will take the helm for Houston, who has been BEATEN UP by the Rangers in his Last Two Starts, Allowing a Combined 11 Runs on 16 Hits in just 9 2/3 Innings, Walking 6 and Striking Out 7. Meanwhile, MAX FRIED will take up Battle Stations for the Braves for the First Time at Minute Maid since GAME 6 of the 2021 World Series... The Game where we CLAIMED THE CROWN. Fried looks to build on a Good Outing against Miami, in which he earned the Win, Allowing just 1 Run on 4 Hits, walking 1 and striking out 4 in 6 1/3 Innings en route to his First Win of the Season. Can FRIED and the Braves Earn their First STATEMENT SWEEP of the Season against a Former World Series Champion? Or Will France and the Astros show that they STILL have some Star Power Left? We Will Find Out at 2:10 P.M. EDT / 1:10 P.M. CDT on Space City Home Network (Astros) and Bally Sports Southeast (Braves)! SoundFX09, Signing Out!

They have to have seen several of those in this ballpark. I think they were just wanting it to not be a homerun in the moment.

[@curtisbowles9894]

Let's go Braves!!!

[@jermainesimmons2944]

From Jermaine’s Delta Airlines Sports Desk: After the Atlanta Braves set foot on Texas soil, they’ve easily handled the Astros with a 6-1 win on the first round. And last night was nearly the same result for the Atlanta crew in the second matchup with another victory by taking down Houston with a 6-2 score inside Minute Maid Park. The second game went off without much of a hitch as the Braves left the Astros pretty much scoreless throughout the majority of the game. Atlanta drew first blood with a solo run in the second inning. This game was pretty much of a pitching contest and more of an offensive duel between both teams. The Astros were pretty much powerless in this game and it helped the Braves to their advantage. And that’s what happened in the seventh inning when Atlanta scored another solo homer to extend their winning lead. By the ninth inning, the Braves either scored a grand slam or four runs in total to put the Astros out of their misery. Just when Atlanta was about to end the game in a shutout, the Astros put up two runs at the bottom of the ninth. But it wasn’t enough for the Astros, and the Braves prevailed in the end to take the series. The last and final round is upon the horizon, and the stage is set as the Braves are looking for a sweep against the former World Series champion. Can the Atlanta Braves make the perfect splashdown with a victory sweep, or will they end up going out of orbit in favor of the Astros? Make sure you tune in this afternoon to see if the Braves can make the sweep with a perfect shuttle landing from Minute Maid Park in Houston! BRAVES (11-5) VS. ASTROS (6-13) TODAY 2:10ET/1:10CT Televised on: AT&T SportsNet Southwest (Houston) Bally Sports Southeast (Atlanta) MLB Extra Innings

With Spencer out for the season the bull pen - starters / relievers/savers need to step up. The offence needs to be better as well - loaded bases with none out and score only one run- need to be better than that as the season progresses.

Eventually they clarified the ball bounced off the yellow line and then hit a sign above the yellow line to the right before reentering the ball park. Homerun. If it had bounced back with the single hit off the yellow line it would have been a double.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It feels different because it's completely different top dogs getting it done for the team. Acuna, Riley, Olson, etc, haven't really gotten going yet. I'm glad someone else said it. They're 11-5 which is great but something definitely feels off about the team. It's actually a great thing though.
