“I’m sorry, Luke Jackson.”
The word play off Atlanta-based rap duo Outkast’s smash hit single ‘Ms. Jackson’ was used as an apology by Atlanta Braves fans to the relief pitcher after users of social media such as Reddit and Twitter unleashed verbal attacks on him and at him after a poor pitching performance on Opening Day vs. the Philadelphia Phillies… and just about every other time he’s messed up.
Jackson, by all accounts, has been a revelation. Especially for a guy that’s been designated for assignment twice, was labeled a first-round draft pick bust, and someone who got the job virtually by process of elimination.
