In case you weren’t watching, the NL East leading Braves won yet another baseball game last night. They will end April without losing a series. And Matt Olson won it in the ninth. In case you haven’t seen it, where have you been?
Oh my word.
Here’s the longer clip.
Here it is from CJ Nitkowski’s seat
Let’s take it all in again. There aren’t a lot of pictures in the CMS for this, but the ones in there are great. I’ll add a few screengrabs. First, watch the usher/support staff
guy. He was the second one to know it was gone.
These blurry images of the guy beside him in the Clemson/Auburn themed Braves hat.
This one goes straight into the Louvre.
Here’s Olson, about as animated as you will see him.
The bullpen enjoyed it just a little.
Here’s Olson, still pumped.
Arrival at the plate
Michael Harris II with the bubble gum shower.
Ronnie with the chest bump
Wiley Ballard thinking “oh no they’re screaming in my ear to grab Matt but they’re gonna take him right into the clubhouse”
Celebratory Gatorade bath (forgive the weird MSPaint cropping and stretching)
Forgive me, but you have to enjoy the little things. For one moment yesterday, this was everyone.
