I am a fan of Braves in Korea. I've been rooting for the team for a long time and planned to go see their game in person this year. But I can't go because of Corona, but I will always cheer for you.
"The book of Numbers is of pivotal importance for all Old Testament study because it covers the formative period of Israel's communal and religious life," notes Harrison in the introduction. "During this period, Israel's religious life was shaped by the promulgation of many laws from God that would establish the nature of her worship and prepare her for a settled community life beyond the confines of the wilderness."
The comeback against the Cardinals makes me so sad now knowing they had a chance to take it game 4 and then we suffered that horrid loss game 5. Love my Braves no matter what and hope we get baseball back soon! #ChopOn
Bugs IsBuggy that’s not what I was saying If he doesn’t make that throw we were going to the bottom of the 9th But because he got it in and got him out we finished the game after the top of the 9th
While I do miss guys like Inciarte & the Upton brothers, I’m glad the previous encouraging seasons that ultimately ended in disappointment were all just steps on a longer road leading to the World Series title of 2021. A true testament to the power of perseverance!
I'm really glad that Ender gets a ring this year since he was still on the roster early in the season. While his OPS and OPS+ were never great, and he did have a sharp decline, he was still electric and a bright spot on some mediocre to bad Braves teams. I mean his defense was nothing short of great and his batting average was good, not to mention the speed. Besides Freddie of course, he and Markakis were sort of the foundation of the Braves lineup we see today and they no doubt helped Ronnie develop especially on defense.
Acuña’s grand slam man. I was there for that game and a full house chop like that fills you with this energy I don’t know how to explain. I remember when he hit that ball and I’ve never heard anything in my life like that crowd erupting. Youngest player in playoff history to hit a grand slam. I love the braves and this team we have right now is something special. Chop on.
I knew those had to be in this clip. Jason Heyward's first at bat of his rookie and 2nd year resulted in a home run. I'll never forget that against chicago and San Francisco oddly enough I still remember where i was when I saw those two at bats. Heyward was a great braves I wish we could have kept him but it is what it is sometimes
Most really great calls actually involve the announcer saying very little. Chip’s call of heyward’s first home run is a great example of those. Screams out “welcome to the show!” And lets the moment play out without saying anything else. That’s iconic shit right there
In the first clip, I remember watching that game and the next day seeing replays of the clip in slow motion. He actually missed the tag. There’s a RU-vid video that breaks it down and it wasn’t as cut and dried as people think when watching it.
No Braves greater moments of this particular decade is complete without Chipper's two walk off HRs vs Phillies in 2012. Nice little list here but not nearly enough!
I lived most of the first twelve years of my life in Georgia. We moved to Detroit because my dad got a different job. Then I enjoyed Los Angeles until it recently went full tilt socialist. So I'm a Tigers and Dodgers fan. But I have a soft spot for these guys to this day-- especially because they seem like the underdogs now compared to the '90s. Oh, I also like them because the tomahawk chop melts modern snowflakes. RIP Skip and Pete-- voices of my childhood. Meanwhile, Vin Scully is 500 years old. lol
