Both from Tampa. Makes an interesting backstory what happened tonight. Tanks was ready to blast that arse.

tommy said he’s played with and against him and known him his hold life. one of his best friends.

it’s wild how often you see stuff like this.

people always homer off their best friend. if you’re a last at bat your best friend is always a closer.

I actually respect the fact that he came up to White right after the hit to congratulate him

I loved the post game interview, “I was looking fastball but I didn’t get it”

Very cool to see them embrace after the walk off. I’m sure they’ve both won and lost that matchup over the years.

I can’t believe they pitched to him. They were smart enough to walk him in his prior at bat.

I don’t know if you can walk him and put the winning run at 2nd with no outs

Maybe you can. I don’t think I would

The men in arena. They all have respect for one another. Takes guys to get out there and slug it out. Hats off to both teams. Hellofva ballgame!

No you can’t. But, I felt Tanks was snapping out of a short term slump or uncharacteristic 6-7 at bats. He seemed dangerous to me and I didn’t know the backstory. Tough spot for that pitcher!

You can’t believe they didn’t walk the tying run into scoring position to pitch to Morgan right on left?

I like these stories about how guys grew up playing against each other and they take it to the college and pro levels. Kinda like how Jayden Daniels has been going against Bryce Young since they were kids and always came out on top.

I’d like for someone to post that on their board but they won’t let anyone join. They’ve been talking shite about white the whole time
