Ryan McMahon Walks Off Braves
5 years agoColorado Rockies infielder Ryan McMahon played the hero on Monday against the Braves when he punched the 1-1 pitch over the right field wall in the bottom of the ninth to win the game. McMahon's shot ended the Braves' eight-game win streak and injected a little bit of good cheer into a clubhouse that was stung by two players hitting the Injured List earlier in the day. McMahon now has 18 homers on the season, 11 of which have come since the start of July. After a disappointing start to the season, McMahon has come around in the second half and could leverage his strong performance into pretty regular playing time next season. For now, he's a daily player since Colorado has suffered a boatload of injuries.
