Atlanta split the first two NLDS games in Los Angeles by winning Game 2 (3–2) with a third straight bullpen game, setting up a best-of-three with home field at Truist Park. Lindsay Crosby explains why Walt Weiss didn’t chase Game 1 from behind and why he chose not to start Chris Sale on regular calendar rest, preferring a fully rested Sale for Game 3. The episode breaks down key bullpen moments (Ray Kerr, Robert Suárez, Didier Fuentes) and Michael Harris’ big night, while stressing Atlanta must get more production from the top of the order to beat the Dodgers.
