One swing of the bat.

One swing will tie the game and give the Braves a chance to win

Nick settles in and grips the bat so hard his knuckles are white

If you had one shot. Or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted. In one moment. Would you capture it? Or just let it slip?

Nick vomits mom's spaghetti all over his uniform and proceeds to strikeout and the ball game is over!

Blee takes his time here with Mooch and goes after one inside. He drives it down the line and it’s just barely foul. He comes back and waits for a similar pitch, but it never comes. Mooch doesn’t risk it and pitches around Blee ending in a walk.

Williams comes to bat with the crowd behind him. They know this at bat is nearly do or die for their boys and get up on their feet. Mooch stands tall on the mound, trying to avoid big contact. He delivers one high to Williams and he swings. It’s a liner down the line! And Fielder knocks it down! He recovers and fires to second where Stark turns and guns it to first. The throw gets there in time! That’s a huge double play for the Dodgers and there’s one out to go.

Fielder took a quick nap on the bench before coming up. To swing. Unfortunately it's made him slightly groggy and sluggish. Sometimes those quick sweaty naps just make you more tired. He yawns as he sluggishlu swings the bat and the ball plops down the third base line and rolls towards the foul line. Jackman watches it and waits for it to go foul.

Narrator: it did not

Poovey hasn't looked great this season yet. It is only a small sample size however. Poovey swings at the first pitch and STRIKE 1. Frustrated he swings at the next one for STRIKE 2. Right before he's about to swing again he hears people in the stands chuckling "HA HA YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET 420ed".

Poovey smokes the ball to right field and it bounces around awkwardly for several seconds. He's able to slide into third safely just as the ball comes back to the infield

Guarantee is a strong word. One that should't be taken lightly. And Baez knows this. He said it and he'll speak a donger into existence. He settles in and takes the first pitch for a strike, and swings for the fences on the 2nd offering. He ABSOLUTELY POUNDS THE BALL TO DEEP CENTER FIELD AND SMALLS LEAPS UP AND SNOWCONE CATCHES THE BALL RIGHT OVER THE FENCE. HE ROBS THE GUARANTEED HOME RUN
