An Appreciation for Adam Duvall

To the roar of boos, Adam Duvall stepped up to the plate, 1 on, 2 out, in the bottom of the 7th. No, the crowd wasn’t booing at Duvall, rather the decision by Brian Snitker to remove Mike Foltynewicz after only throwing 81 pitches and holding the Cardinals to 3 hits, 0 runs, while piling up 7 strikeouts. We all know how the at-bat ended, but would the booing have happened, if, let’s say, the mass of fans were aware of how great Adam Duvall had been in a Braves uniform for the 2019 season?
