Time for the silly four-day, two city series against this year’s “natural” rival, the Blue Jays, a team the Braves once had a rivalry with, 25 years ago.
It was a better series than remembered, with four of the six games decided by one run. Game 1, in Atlanta, was decided by two and provided the Braves a choice bit of revenge, as Jack Morris took the loss one year after his Game 7 masterpiece in the Metrodome. Tom Glavine, shelled for eight runs in Game 6 of the NLCS, rebounded to allow just one run in a complete game four-hitter.
