Phillies official calls Tom Glavine protege Ethan Lindow 'a special pitcher'

Ethan Lindow will be rooting for the Phillies when they open a three-game series in Atlanta against the Braves on Tuesday night.

A few years ago, he would have been pulling for the Braves. He might even have done the tomahawk chop. Why not? He grew up in the Atlanta area.

"I am a Braves fan, yeah," Lindow said during a visit to Citizens Bank Park over the weekend.

He caught himself.

"I was a Braves fan," he said with a laugh.

Lindow changed his allegiance to the Phillies after being selected by the club in the fifth round of the 2017 draft out of Locust Grove High School in the Atlanta area.
