There once was a team from Flushing
Whose success would have its fans blushing
But if the Braves push past
Then post-season ends fast
So any "victory" celebration, I ain't rushing.

Calling tonight's FOX coverage of Braves-Phillies? Kenny Albert and AJ Pierzynski.
O Frabjous Day! Callou, Callay!
A day without John Smoltz is like a day without Zyklon-B! Yesss!
C'mon, Phils! I'll order a steak sandwich for dinner tomorrow if you beat the Noc-a-Homas! Do it for Overbrook Pizza!
(The local shop near my grandma's place, back when. Damn good steaks [no cheese, thank you; extra peppers, extra onions for me], and fries that…are probably why I can't eat such salty food any more. Ah, well…to quote Warren Zevon, "Enjoy every sandwich".)
ETA: Ahhhh, FRUCK! Smoltz is calling Sawx-Yanks and they're going to cut in every goddamn time Judge steps up. Walk 'im, Wacha!
(As Michael Wacha was briefly a Met in Covid-Ball, it would be somewhat appropriate if he joined then-future-Mets Fat Jack Fisher [Maris, #60] and Tracy Stallard [Maris, #61] in long-ball history, but…nahhh. I'm still pulling for an oh-fer-the-fortnight. Just because.)
Still, I suppose it's unlikely that Smoltz would use Judge's PAs to suddenly talk about how great it would be if his buddy Manfred cuts the schedule down to 60 games and puts 24 teams in the playoffs, or whatever "bold" new "idea" Smoltzie has now. So maybe I can make it through the night without vomiting.
Maybe.
