Fun exercise—if you grew up as a kid in the early 90s watching the #Braves on TBS because you were a MLB addict—how many players from that golden era can you name without Google? 1991-1995. I got 15.
Otis Nixon. Terry Pendleton. Sid Bream. David Justice. Greg Olson. Maddux, Glavine, Avery, Smoltz, Kent Merker, Mark Wohlers. Mark Lemke. Jeff Blauser. Ron Gant. Brian Hunter.
Very proud of the Jeff Blauser pull. I couldn’t tell you what I had for lunch yesterday but I remember Blauser crushing as a shortstop.
Ron Gant’s arms 😆
Lemke!
Haha is this real? Press box caught fire?
Smoooooth
Otis Nixon climbing the wall. That was insane!
Every kid had this card and we’d never trade it because he was so hyped.
Call for the Tom Emanski instructional hitting video! #CrimeDog
Could do another thread of “Wait…they were on the Marlins!?”
Totally forgot Devo had a stint with the Braves.
I’ve watched this 20x tonight
I had this card!
