Oh, you Jason Heyward. Just a rookie...He's hittin' home runs off people. My God, a rookie! Dawg fans, I'm sure you get the comparison. Yes, it's early for such praise, but the kid from Henry County is rockin' this town. Just 2 days ago, #22 delivered a game winning 2 run single. Tonight, he saved the Braves again. Trailing 3-2, with 2 outs in the bottom of the ninth, Heyward was money. With the game on the line, Jason Heyward blasted a Ryan Madsen pitch into Midtown. All of a sudden, the life-less Braves were tied with Philly.
"Wild Bill" Wagner pitched a flawless 10th, thus setting the stage for Nate McClouth. And, the Braves center fielder would be the only Bravo to bat in the inning. Jose Contreras sent a ball towards his bat that is still flying above the Atlanta skyline. And, just like that, the Atlanta Braves (with help from a Marlins loss) are tied for first place in the NL East. It's early, real damn early in the season. But, I've seen enough to know that Jason Heyward is the man.
Thank you, Mr. Heyward for setting the stage. Hey ya'll, this kid is clutch. And, as crazy as it sounds, he seriously could become the Herschel Walker of the Atlanta Braves. It's early, but I wouldn't bet against #22!
