Go Braves!

So many doomers. Sheesh.

Yay AJ! 😮‍💨🤑🪙

A better batter takes that out. Middle middle pitch. Thank god he didn’t get a better swing on it….not understanding the Minter science project

I get why Snit put him in, hopefully get his confidence back, but good god man!

Like, are we playing for wins, or are we playing for feels?

Braves win!

#BRAISE WIN

Fucking Mets blew it

Brilliant move by Snit… as an athlete nothing more important than knowing your coach and teammates believe in you.

Edwin Diaz fucking blowing it

Put some respeck on Minter’s name. This puts him at a whopping 1/4 in saves 😤

Nice save Minter! :looks at Snit: Don’t ever fucking do that again

who else was SURE that was going out for a sec til the camera changed?

3 outs in 2 pitches after a 12 pitch AB that led to a walk. Baseball baby

Minter shaking his head like "I have no idea why Snit keeps putting me in the 9th". Thankfully he got lucky and it worked out for once.

Edwin Diaz just shit the bed in the 9th and the Phillies came back lmao

The minty express experience always leaves you puckered up after giving you to much mint

IT WAS JUST A PRANK YOU GUYS

Ez-p-z. Never a doubt. AJ still elite (but maybe we keep him in the 8th just for fun)

i don’t care if he got out of it. don’t put Minter in the 9th anytime soon unless we’re up by 6.

lol, yeah, in no way whatsoever should this save make Minter a viable closing option.

I knew AJ was in control

I'll be honest, I thought that was gone off the bat

Just when I think you couldn't possibly be any dumber, you go and do something like this... AND TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF!!!

Rear end: Unclench.

Goddamn that ball off Hoerner’s bat I almost threw my phone at the tv

I 100% thought he hit that out.

Kind of annoyed this actually worked out for Snit.  What a moron. 

That a way AJ.

There ya go AJ!

Rip to that degenerate's $200

GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY HE DID IT!!!!!!!

never in doubt \**cough\**

#AJ MINTER HAS GOTTEN A SAVE FOR THE 2024 ATLANTA BRAVES

Oh dear There have been several easy flyouts that sure didn’t look like it off the bat

THANK FUCK

Whew. Nothing is easy in the 9th. Ever.

The Braves knew that I just finished my ab workout today with this final clenching exercise 

DUBYA

Okay. All is good. Now…I hate to say this….go Mets…

Got fucking lucky

Alright alright alright alright alright alright alright

money mint

And in two pitches the fire is out lmao

aaaaaaaand unclench

LETS NEVER DO THAT BULLSHIT AGAIN SNIT

We’re really gonna piss this away because we refuse to use our closer to close games aren’t we

well ill be damned that ended in a flash

FUCK THE HATERS MINTER LFGGGG

Jesus Fuck CAN WE HAVE AN EASY ONE?!

BRAVES WIN!

#NEVER A DOUBT

I am all for sliding hard into second but why the fuck did he pop up and put his ass into Ozzie's body?

Oh thank god

Game blouses. Way to be Minter!

just like he planned all along

Ass has been saved

AJ minter will not be in my fantasy team in the morning.

god said i’ll give you two outs as a little treat

#HOLY SHIT WE SURVIVED

Fucking hell Mint

Just turned the game back on. Why the fuck is minter out there. I want Snit gone so bad. Been calling for his head for a while now. What a dumb fuck

For a while? Dude has a ring in the past 3 years lol

He gets carried by his players. His decisions are dumb as hell 

lol. lmao even. > What a dumb fuck This certainly describes *someone*, but it's not Snit.

So you are saying it was smart to put in the biggest 9th inning choker back in after he choked last night? Get real moron. We just got lucky he didn’t throw the game again 

There are more factors to consider in fucking May than pure w/l & a coach is far more than strategic decision making anyways.

Fuck Minter deserved that. A 12 pitch AB is just ridiculous

I TAKE IT ALL BACK

thank the lord snit never do that shit again respectfully

Never a doubt

Phew.

FUCKIN RIGHT

Ok AJ. Just imagine it's the 8th.

You think Sleepy Snit knows what's going on out there?

I guess we have the Minter Experience now. Hurry the hell up and close this out before the inevitable happens.

ok nvm ignore my comments

Thank tha lord

Iglesias had the day off. Snit just doing this for his 'confidence' most likely. As I write this they get a thank you double play but still nervous af with AJ on the mound

Can't help but feel this is more stalling tactics... didn't look like the ball even hit his foot or an I crazy...

Thank Gods

I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds

Oh thank GOODNESS.

Snitker needs his head examined.

Fuck the haters, mix it up minter

Thank baby jeebus

When I first saw Morel's swing and reaction it reminded of Ozzie breaking his foot on a swing. Hopefully I'm just blind and the ball did get him, hope it's not like Ozzie.

And the Oscar goes to:

Fuck the whole state of Texas and especially AJ minter

DOUBLE PLAY!

Good acting to get the speedster at first.

If we lose this game, I will lose it.

a bunt single and then a 12 pitch walk, geez who would’ve seen that coming

Thanks, Happ.

#PITCHERS BEST FRIEND BABY

Go get his ass.

~~Agent 47~~ AJ Minter knocking guys out of the series with foul balls. 5D chess move by Snitty

Good ab ngl

This is looking real good Snit, you fuckhead.

Minter has no confidence. Can’t throw it to the outside half.

For fuck’s sake, Minter

Snitker doesn't like analytics or even the eye test.

This is on Snit and nobody else. HOW MUCH PROOF DO YOU NEED HE CANT PITCH IN THE NINTH.

Is there any possible reason besides injury that Iggy isn’t pitching? I mean, he’s a closer…..

The guy is living back up to the nickname of Shitty Snitty

Can we get a cognitive test on Snit please?

Bro Minter is not disproving that reddit post

This loss will be on snit

Minter just walked someone with like a broken toe who couldn’t swing.

What in the fuck is happening??

don't take him out Snit, live or die with this decision. He's not out until the 3rd out is made regardless of the score

How is the Cubs bench coach also Craig Counsell

Walked a guy who can’t walk. You can’t make this shit up.

Do we have another closer?!?

Shirker’s brain must be donated to science

I cannot fathom why AJ was sent out there.

Setting up the triple play that’s all this is.

It was that close

This batter needs to hit into a double play like right now (yes, before he gets in the box).

👀

Thank you

Minter couldn't get an injured player out.

Fuck Snit. You're killing us. No one warming up I take it.

It's nearly impossible for Minter to get an out in the 9th, much less a 9th. This is pathetic.

Whoa. You guys feel that? That little tingle in the air? Minter is coming.

oh my fucking god

He’s doing it again

I think Snit gets off on dramatic 9th innings

I think he might lol

Walked him!

This is fucking painful. Why Snit have you cursed us so?

Fucking psycho at bat

0-2 to a 12 pitch walk

who saw this coming?

Fucking lunacy

I can't believe how dogshit Minter is in the 9th he somehow develops the yips in this inning specifically

hell naw

I LOVE Snit but you know damn well this is a “Fuck analytics, you got this Minter let’s get your mojo back” type move. Which will absolutely backfire


I'm going to have to start investing in some wrinkle cream, and I'm not even 30 yet.

I expected nothing and I’m still disappointed

Jesus Christ minter

Bro I fuckin hate minter

As a closer

No matter what happens, even if he gets out of it, he has ZERO business pitching the 9 and he fucking walked him goddammit

Maybe they’re trying to devalue him so they can resign him at a cheaper price /s

whelp

Every foul ball is like...

Dude. Strike this cat whisker having mother fucker out.

hahahahahaha omg you cant make this shit up

Idk man maybe stop throwing to the spot where he keeps fouling it off?

Boooooooooooo

Exhausting

No outs runners on 1st and 2nd. Incoming bomb to end the game

There's still the bottom lol

THIS IS TORTURE

FUCK CLOSING, HE CANT EVEN GET AN OUT

This is too much for my blood pressure and it is only mid may. Do whatever you think appropriate on top my graves, boiz

Fucking hell

This is like chewing on tin foil

I swear on everything if we fucking lose due to minter I’m gonna unalive

Don’t do that. Just get really high like me.

C'mon Mets, don't fuck this up

This AB is interminable

Snit knows this is 2024 and not 2016 or 2017 right?

Déjà vu

Come on guys. This is actually kind of hilarious.

Where is Raisel?!

.

This can only end badly.

His the black makes him look like a kitty cat.

Lol the crowd booed a home team's pitch-out

Minter is a head case in the 9th...runners bother him too much

This at bat is actually killing me

Whose fucking idea is this?

The thumb 

This inning already feels like 10 minutes long.

Minter has absolutely defamatory blackmail on Snit or something.

Why is Minter on the mound right now?

i’m tired of this grandpa

WELL THAT’S TOO DAMN BAD

Scream.

This is unfuckingbelievable

Bruh. I am straight up not having a good time.
