MEEEEEETS!
OH MY GOD
So the Mets had a doubleheader against the Braves today to determine who was getting into the playoffs: the Mets, the Braves, or the Diamondbacks.
Because of course the Mets’ season was going to come down to a doubleheader with the freaking Braves.
The Mets needed to win one of the two games to advance and after being behind 3-0 in the top of the 8th in the first game, they did one of their miraculous late-inning comebacks and won!
This game was ridiculous, yo.
You could tell how much more relaxed Gary, Keith, and Ron were in the second game, haha.
LFGM!
What’s a sound that is carved into your memory forever?
Because mine’s this:
My mom watched a LOT of Braves games when I was a kid and the chop chant just brings me right back to when I was in first grade.
It’s pretty wild.
BRAAAAAVES!
YEAH BRAVES!
I really liked their team this year. They totally deserved to win. It’s just too bad they weren’t at home when it happened.
YAY!
World
GUYS THE BRAVES ARE IN THE WORLD SERIES!
That’s super exciting. The Mets couldn’t pull it off (again), so I’m definitely rooting for the Braves. They were always the team my mom watched when I was a kid, so I have a soft spot for them.
I also really like Freeman, Swanson, and Pederson.
Go Braves!
Road Trip – Day 13: San Francisco (Giants/Braves Baseball)
Today Nate and I braved the streets of San Francisco to walk along the waterfront (with the secret motive to obtain candy) and then to get to the Giants/Braves game at AT&T Park.
The waterfront was a bit less terrifying than the non-tourist part of San Fran, at least. And we found IT’SUGAR, which is pretty much the best candy store ever (though it’s more expensive than our candy store in Calgary). We each got 2+ pounds of candy, ‘cause we’re addicts awesome.
The game was super cool, too. Baseball is so weird without the TV announcers! The Braves lost, which is too bad, but it was fun. Pictures!
Tomorrow we’re getting the hell out of San Francisco as fast as we possibly can.
