What a bizarre 9th inning for Luke Jackson and the Atlanta Braves.
Jackson has had all kinds of bad luck it seems, but today’s top half of the ninth inning might take the cake.
Jorge Alfaro reached on a chopper, Harold Ramirez hit a soft ground ball up the middle and Yadiel Rivera botched a sacrifice bunt attempt so bad it popped up right behind the mound – and all of the charging infielders – for a hit.
The bases were loaded, but the first two hits could have easily been outs.
