Using @Geezerdonk s Golf Glove from the Abreu thread?

Braves have a yellow quickcrete patch on their sleeves.

Makes the Oxy patch look positively lovely.

Kimbrel has been known to blow up.

I thought for sure they ran on that pitch to the backstop.

The trailing runners sure did.

I find myself wishing failure for both teams on every pitch.

Wow.

Quite a moment.

Best player in the league with the bases juiced gets his drive tracked down.

High drama.

That’s probably the series right there for Atlanta.

That was off the handle and it still got to the fence.

If the phillies face him again this season they fucked something up.

All of these 100 win teams going down in the division series. Baseball is a humbling game.

Harper is the perfect villain.

Highly skilled, douche of the highest order.

Have to admit I am very freely rooting for the Phillies here.

Chalk it up to a lifetime of Braves hate. Or an instinctual bias for the underdog.

I’m still not over the Tony Eusebio ground out in the 1999 division series against the Braves. I cannot and will not ever root for them.

Anyway I’ve come to even like Harper. He works hard, and it isn’t his fault he was made into an idol before old enough to buy a beer.
