Cubs vs. Braves Game Highlights (9/26/23) | MLB Highlights 

as a Braves fan I'll take any win but man that was brutal for Suzuki

Only 6 more HRs for the Braves to tie the record for HRs by a team in a single season. (307 by the 2019 Twins)

We needed this momentum going into the post season!! Lets keep it rolling!

Elder is concerning. The Braves really need him to pitch well heading into the playoffs. Bullpen was great for a change! 1 run in final 4 innings. Feel for the Cubs losing one like this but we'll take it! Go Braves!

There couldn't have been a more appropriate final out in this game

I know we won, but god our starting pitching needs some improvement

Relying too much on our offense. Pitching has got to tighten up

Elder gotta get the ball down and stop walking people

He drop the ball!!!!

Won’t no one be buying Suzuki motorcycles 🏍 in Atlanta they’ll quit on ya before you get there 😅😂 👏🏼😂 GOOOO BRAVES!

Best slugging team in baseball. I guess you have to be with Elder crumbling, Fried out for a week,and Morton out until NLCS. To quote Kenny Rogers, " You picked a fine time to leave me ,Lucille."

Yall need to clean this up before the postseason

Go Braves Baby

Great Comeback! And Great To see Dansby Back in ATL

This braves rotation going into the postseason has me trembling 😢

Wow what a come from behind win and a gift from Cubs rightfielder Suzuki, but the Braves will take them anyway they can get them, our line-up just doesn't quit and they bailed out Bryce Elder again from yet another crappy performance, this is problematic as Elder's bad outings used to come every other start but now it's EVERY start, going into the post season I am greatly worried but GO BRAVES!!!!!!!!!!

Great comeback! & great to see Dansby back in atl

Welcome back, Dansby! We in the A all miss you.

I actually thought the braves were going to lose after I saw it was 6-0. I was on break at work and saw they began their comeback and came home and saw they pulled it out. Go braves!

Bryce Elder just isn’t going to cut it in the postseason! Too many runs…

This Brewers fan says thank you Braves! We'll be seeing the Braves or the Dodgers wail on us in the playoffs next week.

Dansby, you can come back and be our best bench player whenever you want!

I was at this game. All of the Cubs fans were stunned.

Thank you since MLB takes forever to do

"Suzuki over to his right with room--HE DROPPED IT! HE DROPPED THE BALL!"

What A Game!!

thank you braves, 😅 (from a Brewers fan)

Lil pre postseason magic love to see it out of the braves

Nice comeback win for the Braves last night

He Dropped The Ball!! That Was Funny

Notes From the Game: - The Braves MIGHT have to re-evaluate Bryce Elder's Role as part of this Postseason Rotation. He's unable to finish the 4th, and allows 5 Runs on 7 Hits, Walking 4 and Striking Out 2. Mercifully, he gets a No Decision on this, keeping him at 12-4, but his ERA is now at 3.81. It's now a Split-Decision between Elder or Wright for the 3rd Starting Slot... and I'm leaning towards the Latter. + Credit to the Bullpen for another EXCELLENT Performance tonight! Stephens, Johnson, Hand, and Iglesias all combined to FINISH the Final 5 1/3 Innings, Allowing Just 1 Run on 4 Hits, Walking None and Striking Out 5. Brad Hand gets the Win in relief, Pitching a FLAWLESS 8th Inning, and improves to 5-2, though his ERA remains at a High 5.13. Iglesias gets his 31st Save, Allowing Just 1 Hit, but Striking Out 2. His ERA stands at 2.85. ROTATION TOTAL; 9 Innings, 6 Runs, 13 Hits, 4 Walks, 7 Strike Outs, NO Home Runs Allowed. 2-10 with Runners in Scoring Position, and Five Men Left on Base.... YET WE OVERCAME A SIX-RUN DEFICIT? IS THIS REAL? + HOW ABOUT SUPERMAN KP TO GET THE SHOW STARTED! 1-2 with a SOLO SUPER MISSILE TO LEFT-CENTER! AND THAT WAS THE BRAVES' 300TH SUPER MISSILE THIS SEASON AS A TEAM! Pillar stands in with a .230/.250/.678 Line with 9 Home Runs and 31 RBIs in 78 Games! + MATT OLSON DOIN' THE BASICS! 1-3 with a Walk, Single, and an RBI! Olson Holds Onto a .281/.389/.993 Line with 53 Home Runs and 134 RBIs through 157 Games! + OZUNA KEEPS ON GRINDING! 1-4 with an RBI Double in the 6th! Ozuna stands firm with a .268(~.000)/.340(-.001)/.872(-.002) Line through 139 Games! + ACUNA DOIN' MVP THINGS! 1-4 with a TWO-RUN SUPER MISSILE THAT JUUUSSSTTT CLEARED THE CHOP HOUSE WALL IN RIGHT! Acuna holds firm with a .335/.414/1.012 Line with 41 Home Runs, 103 RBIs, and 68 Stolen Bases in 154 Games! + SAY IT AIN'T SO, SEAN! Despite an 0-3 Night, HE DRIVES IN THE GAME-DECISIVE RUNS ON A FATAL FAILURE BY SEIYA SUZUKI, WHO MISJUDGED A LINER COMING AT HIM! Murphy clings onto a .255/.367/.853 Line with 21 Homers and 68 RBIs in 106 Games! Truth be told though, I was shouting to the TV 'HE MISSED THAT? SEIYA MISSED THAT?!'. + OTHER NOTABLES: Ozzie Albies and Michael Harris II had 2-4 Nights; Murphy, Riley, Olson, and Arcia Recoded 1 Walk Each, Meaning Every Braves' Starter Reached Base at some point tonight. Harris and Riley had the Most Strikeouts though, with 2 Each. + NO QUIT IN THIS CHOPPIN' GREAT TEAM! DOWN 6-0, THEY DID NOT FLINCH! Elder had another Rough Night, but an EXCELLENT Performance from the Bullpen, combined with a Solid Defensive Performance and a RELENTLESS Offense, and the Braves' Pull off another Comeback to be Remembered! The Pitching Rotation's gonna have to Move Mountains, but with an Offense like this? Perhaps it may not be as challenging as we think! - So My Fears are Realized: The Philadelphia Phillies have CLINCHED a Wild Card Slot, and are looking to lock up the Top-Slot in the WC, which means it's VERY LIKELY WE'LL SEE THEM AGAIN IN THE NLDS. - However, with the Braves' Comeback Victory over the Cubs, that accomplishes THREE THINGS: (1) The Milwaukee Brewers are the 2023 NL CENTRAL DIVISION CHAMPIONS. (2) San Diego and San Francisco Live to Fight Another Day in the Wild Card Race. (3) The Miami Marlins are now within Reach of Stealing the FINAL Wild Card Slot from Chicago. How fun would it be to DENY a Team a Postseason Spot and have THREE NL East Teams in the Postseason? - Lastly, The Dodgers SPLIT their Doubleheader against the Rockies, while the Orioles Won 1-0 over the Nationals, Meaning the Braves still have a 3 Game Lead on Home-Field Advantage with 5 to Play. Just have to keep Winning! TOMORROW: ROUND 2 OF 3 Between the Cubs and Braves will take place Under the Evening Skies of Truist Park. Jameson Taillon will step to the rubber for the Cubbies, who had a Very Disappointing Year on the Northside, Going 8-10 with an ERA of 5.05, and his September hasn't been much better, going 1-1 with an ERA of 3.18. Meanwhile, DARIUS VINES will take up Battle Stations for the Braves, Who's Mainly been doing Bullpen Appearances for the Braves in his last 3 Starts, but has been inconclusive so far in September, allowing 5 Runs on 7 Hits in 8 1/3 Innings so far. Perhaps a Decent Starting Appearance may change that? Can VINES and the Braves Keep the Winning Ways Going during this CRITICAL FINAL HOMESTAND? Or will Taillon give the Cubs some hope in clinching that FINAL WILD CARD SLOT? We will find out at 7:20 P.M. EDT / 6:20 P.M. CDT on Marquee Sports Network (Cubs), Bally Sports South (Braves), and MLB Network (Out-Of-Market ONLY)! This Game will also be available for FREE to watch on MLB.TV for Out-Of-Market Customers!

If it was the cardinals they would called infield fly

That was a good win last night and a can not believe we came back town 6 runs last night

Go braves

Awesome angle capturing the Braves' walk-off moment! Truly a thrilling and memorable sports highlight. 7:51

I love my braves, but you have to feel for Suzuki 😢

Take a win any way you can get them!

Go braves, we all love you ozzie from Curacao🤗

Haha! Couldn't happen to a better fan base 😂

Go Bravos. Tough tough loss for the cubs tho

Suzuki’s error may cost the Cubs a postseason😮‍💨

The missed tag by Albies on Swanson early cost us the momentum, orherwise Bryce would’ve been fine. The mental aspect….

7:29 Moment very happy 😊🪓

Bryce needs to tighten up

I would feel a lot better about the Braves chances if Murphy wasn't an automatic out

Amazing comeback by the Braves! The starting pitching is still concerning until playoff time, but I take the win! For the A!

The Braves just have it ❤they honestly cant do anything wrong lets go # WsChampion😮

I was at this game!

That Was A Awesome Comeback

Fortunate, but CRAZY WIN!😓🤯😗 The Braves have the Best record, but Man is the pitching struggling!!!😬 Gotta keep Winning though. Need That Home field Advantage!!!🪓 Feel BaD 4 the cubs RF. It's Happen 2 ME in jr. High & in a softball league. 💩 HAPPENS!! Anyways.... Just❤️⚾✌️ GO BRAVES!!!🙃🙃🙃

What a game!!!

We need these wins in order to keep home field advantage. I just hope we have no more injuries and everyone can heal up as fast as possible. Sometimes you gotta play a little hurt in October unless it’s hurting the team.

Bryce needs to figure something out. Throwing meatballs over the middle to Cody bellinger ain't it. Great work by the pen!

Ohhhhhhhhhhh...Yikes! GG to both squads.

THAT is a tough loss

No one mentioning that move by Sean Murphy to run down the kid on 3B ... black belt stuff from Murphy. Murphy, Arcia = genius trades by the Braves.

I love my Braves, and glad they won....but anyone else nervous about what they are seeing. This team looks like a one and done in the NLDS. I hope not but we look like last years team , issues with pitching injuries ending the regular season.

This is exactly why you never count out a huge lead. Reds blew a 9-0 lead and the Pirates came back. Cubs had a 6-0 lead and we stormed back when KP shot his homer

Go Braves 🪓😎

Let’s GO! #FortheA

He didn't drop it, he missed it.

Cubs are a good team But them braves y’all are for real for real 🔥🔥🔥

Great game when the lead changes hands like that.

Suzuki Missed It 😂😂😂😂 That was Funny Wasn't it

Not a perfect win. Anyone knows how Justin Steele dominates the first half? 7 runs turn around is amazing!

This team just find ways to win. Despite all the records they’ve set this year, quite a few of their wins were nights where they were just more resilient and just clawed their victory by any means. I’m pretty sure we are going to have at least a game or two in the postseason where it’s down the wire and we need some Braves magic in the 9th or extra innings. Everybody is looking at the pitching and hoping that doesn’t become our kryptonite in the postseason. I have confidence this rotation and our bullpen will be ready when it’s time. With the depth of this team and all they’ve accomplished so far, I have a hard time seeing them S the bed. Worst case scenario, we may have a few moments where they have us on pins and needles but ultimately confident they get us to the finish line. #ForTheA #4Life

i feel bad for suzuki but it never shoulda gotten to that point. that whole inning was on smyly.

Letsss goooo braves

Braves win

This could put the Cubs into a tailspin and run them out of the playoffs

The bullpen did a good job holding the Cubs in check and the Braves offense was able to comeback. I felt bad for Suzuki he literally cost the Cubs the game dropping the ball in the 9th inning...not sure how he lost the ball but I wonder does he wear contact lens because he was messing with his eyes after that. The starting pitching is going to be worrisome in the Postseason...Strider is good and hopefully Fried and Morton will be ready to go and Bryce Elder can keep it together.

Huge comeback win! Even though I'm a huge Braves fan I do feel bad for Suzuki. That's gotta be every outfielder's nightmare.

Braves def. Cubs 7-6!!!!! ⚾⚾ ⚾⚾ ⚾⚾ ⚾ At the Bottom of the 6th Inning, Kevin Pillar #17 (RF) hits a 300th Solo Home Run blast and Matt Olson #28 (1B) smashes an RBI Single and Marcell Ozuna #20 (LF) smashes an RBI Double and at the Bottom of the 7th Inning, Ronald Acuna Jr. #13 (OF) crushes a 2-Run Home Run dingers and at the Bottom of the 8th Inning, Atlanta takes the late lead on an error as the Braves win in a 7-6 winning game victory over the Chicago Cubs!!!!!!!! ⚾⚾ ⚾⚾ ⚾⚾ ⚾ #ForTheA

Great win, but Elder is NOT the guy. Every mistake he made, we paid for it. That’s been true for his last few starts. No way he’s just gonna flip the script in a few weeks time.

Our pitching is a big sore spot. Somebody has got to step up and become another Ace.

At some point the pitching has to stand up, it’s hard to just out score everyone! I’m a Braves fan but kinda felt bad for the Cubbies last night!

Seiya error is one of the worst errors I’ve seen in recent memory. Jesus my man’s just completely whiffed on the most routine fly out 😂 I’ll take it though lol

The offense came thru but if we want another ws title the pitching and bullpen need to get it together 😎

Gooo braves the hapinnes

300. #waytocleanemup. Listen to our hometown..

Holy cow! Almost quit this recap down 6-0, what a great comeback!

You can't blame the right fielder for they lost. But go Braves.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Elder is not fooling anyone rn.

Estos bravos si son bravos, salvaron un 6 a 0

Thank you Suzuki :)

Frickin' A!!!!!!!!!!!!!🎉

I'm a Braves fan, but you gotta feel bad for Seiya on that error.

Japanese players are so respectful, they score runs and then they give them back. 😂😂

Idk how but we did it

Haters?? Gone quiet.

Feel bad for Suzuki, but it happens. I lost a ball in the lights playing softball once and it hit my nose. To this day I don't smell very good.

Mlb the show needs to make him a 98 at the least

I really hope we trade Bryce in the off season. He isn’t going to be effective in the long run and I’m sure we can get something good in return for him while his stock is high. Please AA I beg you.

Idk what his pitch count was at, but it looked like the Cubs pulled their starter too soon.

I do not know why am watching this because I’m a Yankees fan

That has to be one of the worst errors all season and longer

Really, you're not going to include the Johnson, Hand, Mastrobuoni bit?

Big

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
