Mariners play one game against the Braves, win two in thrilling fashion

We’re still not used to winning, you know?

As Game One wrapped up, I had a recap planned that focused on the ways our nervous systems are mis-calibrated for the playoffs, and what we can do about it. But then Game Two happened and let’s face it: no one’s calibrated for a day like this.
