Cubs Fan Catches Braves Home Run Ball, Throws Fake Ball Back On Field
This is a funny little insight into the lunacy of sports fandom. Much like with the players, there are unwritten rules of decorum for fans and one of those rules is that you must throw an opposing team's home run back onto the field if you catch it. People will straight-up yell at you if you don't...
I Can't Stop Watching This Agonized Mets Fan's Performative Suffering
After Juan Lagares popped out in foul territory with two men on against the Braves, this guy just couldn't handle the Mets' inability to score. The team was 1-for-8 with runners in scoring position in a 3-1 loss Thursday night, with nine runners left on base, and the man in the front row was fed up....

Opponents Barred From Speaking As Cobb County Approves Braves Stadium
This is the point where you just tip your cap to the Braves, and acknowledge that they won.

Pantomime Cunnilingus And Blowjob: Braves Fan Covers All The Bases
So, here is a dude on the SportsSouth Braves feed doing the ol' blowjob and cunnilingus routine behind home plate. There's not a whole lot to praise here, but we do appreciate his open-mindedness and willingness to please when it comes to pantomiming oral sex....
Here's What The Braves' New Ballpark Could Look Like
Forget for a second how much money taxpayers will pay for the Braves' new Cobb County stadium, and how those taxpayers had no say in funding the ballpark, and how the Braves are abandoning a perfectly good 20-year-old stadium to the wrecking ball, and how parking will be a nightmare, and how the tea...
Holy Shit, The Marlins And Braves Cannot Stop Striking Each Other Out
Remember last night, when the Atlanta Braves and Miami Marlins combined to strike out 28 times, a thing that had never before occurred in the modern era? Well, those crazy free-swingers went and did the exact same thing today, and they didn't even need a full nine innings to do it this time. ...
Jose Fernandez And Alex Wood Strike Out Everyone
Last night, the Marlins and Braves teamed up to do something that has never been done in the modern era: they combined to strike out 28 times in a nine inning game while failing to draw a single walk. After checking the math real quick, I believe that is an assload of strikeouts....
The Braves Are Getting Racist Hate Mail About Hank Aaron
It's Jackie Robinson Day, a day when baseball takes a moment to recognize the man who broke the sport's color barrier, and the Braves continue to sift through hundreds of letters, many of them littered with racial slurs, bashing Hank Aaron....
Phillies Fans' Reactions To Dan Uggla's Grand Slam Are Amazing
Your most compelling sports video of the year comes from ESPN, which caught these Phillies fans taunting Dan Uggla—then being rudely interrupted by Uggla's grand slam. It was brilliant enough (seriously, great job ESPN) but we took it a bit further with extreme slow motion....
Braves-Phillies Turned Into A Home Run Party
The Braves outlasted the Phillies 9-6 in what turned out to be a surprise slugfest. The game was a 2-1 snoozer until the eighth inning, when Evan Gattis, Dan Uggla, and Andrelton Simmons went back-to-back-to-back for the Braves. Between the two teams, there were five home runs in the final two innin...

The Braves Set The American Flag On Fire At Their Home Opener
The Braves really fucked up, you guys. During yesterday's home opener against the Mets, they set off a fireworks display way, way too close to the American flag. You are not supposed to put flames that close to the American flag, Braves!...

Chipper Jones Rescued Freddie Freeman In The Snowstorm
