The division series between the Phillies and Braves this week in Atlanta has only had two games, but has still been eventful. Game one resulted in a shutout victory for the Phillies, whilst game two resulted in an exciting win for the Braves. Verbal skirmishes have broken out between the two fanbases for the entirety of the series, and with the series heading to Philly, the animosity doesn’t seem to be slowing down. After the Brave’s game two victory, Orlando Arcia, a player for the Braves, was quoted taunting Phillies’ star player Bryce Harper after he made a key mistake that cost Philadelphia the game. Since baseball is such a superstitious sport, Atlanta fans are outraged at Arcia for putting the Braves in a position where losing is becoming even more costly.
