True baseball fans don’t leave until the game is over. Forget about beating traffic or making a flight for the out-of-towners, it ain’t over until it’s over. Riley Greene proved that tonight with his first (and I’m sure there will be many more) home run that came with one out in a tie ballgame in the bottom of the ninth.
It’s the 23rd time that Greene has reached base in just 12 career games at the major-league level, and we’ve yet to find anything he can’t do well. That includes giving the response of a seasoned veteran in his post-game interview by giving props to Victor Reyes who delivered the game-tying home run just one at-bat prior.
