I always viewed Roberto Clemente, Willie Mays, and Hank Aaron as the triumvirate of an entire era of baseball. That triumvirate is officially gone now, and that’s really sad to think about. Thank you Willie for what you brought the game 🙏🏻

This Phillies fan got Freddie Freeman’s HR ball, and rather than keeping it or throwing it back, decided to give it to this young Freeman fan. @Phillies , let’s get this young fan a signed ball or some gear! RT to make this happen! This young man is what makes the game great.

Ozzie Albies is evolving from a goofy, funny teammate to a teacher and team leader. There was clear laziness from Ozuna on the bases, which could’ve easily led to either of them getting thrown out. Absolutely love this fire from Ozzie.

One of the biggest hits of Freddie Freeman’s career is now tarnished with the “in what could be his last at bat with the Atlanta Braves” call over it. Such a lousy call of a huge play, especially when he stays in Atlanta. Call the play, not hypotheticals.
