August 13, 20188 yr It's mid-September, '97. The Marlins are trying to hold off a few teams to get the Wild Card and make the playoffs. The Rockies were in town, and we were losing in the 9th. Rockies Closer Jerry DiPoto (who's now the Seattle GM) loaded the bases with 2 out, and Bobby Bonilla came to the plate. And this happened: I was at that game, and the place went about as nuts as Wrigley did last night. We'll see if it was a taste of things to come for the Cubs like it was for us...
August 13, 20188 yr I think what's sad about the walk-off last night is that David Bote felt he had to apologize for the bat flip. It's a walk-off "ultimate" grand slam, throw the bat into right field if you feel it's necessary.

August 14, 20188 yr That's horrible. Isn't it? What's wrong with being caught up in emotion? Glad Joey Bats never apologized for his bat flip against Texas in the playoffs.
