Atlanta Braves fans have been treated to a season like none other, with records falling right and left, and new categories being created for players’ performances.
Their loyalty is now being rewarded with home field advantage in the National League Division Series and the chance to see their favorite team bring home another World Series trophy.
Fans both well-known and unknown (to the masses) have taken to social media to offer their support, share their memories, and add a few taunts for the Philadelphia Phillies, the team standing in the Braves’ way right now.
No pressure, @Braves, but let’s finish out this amazing regular season with five more wins! Superfan Jimmy Carter will be watching. Cake, peanut butter ice cream, and an Atlanta Braves victory would make his 99th birthday on Sunday complete. #JimmyCarter99 pic.twitter.com/wobgf9gS23

Headed down to Truist Park for the second of three Braves intrasquad games. Saw a lot of homers, some AAA Gwinnett...

I don't even know where to start with this post. It sounds silly but I'm completely serious. And I want to remember...

I'm rooting for the Braves, because I've been a Braves fan since they announced their move from Milwaukee to Atlanta. I.e., for about 60 years. https://t.co/M2OiFxXkMw
