A three run walk-off home run with two outs is a glorious nail-bitter.

I haven't followed MLB ever since my local team was basically turned into a "farm system" for the big-money teams.

I'll probably forget which team was the 2017 champion in about two years.

who caught that ball. I know Justin Turner asked for it back, but that man will remember that moment for the rest of his life and has been having his minutes of fame online. It was a good catch. I wonder if he used to play baseball back in the day.

Snagged that puppy right out of the air. I can see him giving it back, getting some dish (jersey, batting glove, another ball, something) and a video of him doing that on international television that will never go away.

Pretty cool.

In ANOTHER National League Championship series game!

He's a retired cop with season tickets and is a natural southpaw, but uses his son's right-hander glove because his right shoulder is trash.

Turner DID get the ball back, but terms of the trade are on the hush. Methinks there was some really, really cool bling involved.
