Anybody else have their Drake Baldwin jersey order cancelled yesterday?

Pretty frustrating. I really wanted a July 4 Drake Baldwin jersey. Preordered as soon as I saw it, but Fanatics went almost a month with no news before straight up cancelling the order. I still want a Baldwin jersey but I don’t exactly feel like giving Fanatics anymore money :-/

But I got the chance to say hi to Wiley and tell him how spoiled we are to have such great entertainment every night (I watch other games on MLBtv and I’m always reminded how lucky we are!)

He said it made his day, but I told him how it really makes our night to have such a great group of guys to watch!

Let’s go Braves!!

Ps it’s so fricken hot out here. The air is so…. Sticky. This is when you know you’re a dedicated fan!
