GDT: 5/13/17 Braves vs Marlins

I've never seen it, but the Yankees walked Rizzo this month with nobody on base and 2 outs. It was a tie game at Wrigley in the bottom of the 10th.

It happened 3 times in 2016 to Ortiz, Nelson Cruz and Corey Dickerson (wtf?).

Once in 2015 to McCutchen.

Since 2000 it has happened 59 times...22 times to Bonds. Next highest total? Pujols with 4. It is remarkable how scared of Bonds other teams were. We will likely never see that again.

I would bet most of those cases were tie games or pitching team was up 1. The braves were leading which would (I think) make it even more strange
 
Freeman is so good. This is the best stretch of a player I remember as a Brave (second half of last year and this year so far) better than Chipper, better than Justice, better than Andruw, etc...
