As the Mets were demolishing the Braves in their season finale in Atlanta, Sal was enjoying every second of it while on the air with BT.
“Take that Atlanta, you bums!” Sal said. “The Mets putting their foot on the throat - these little old Mets, maybe the Wild Card Mets, going against the almighty Braves, and sticking it to them.”
The Mets jumped ahead 6-0 and never looked back, taking down their division rivals 16-4 to take the series. After an abysmal start to the season, New York is suddenly winners of five of their last seven games, having just won a series in a ballpark that is typically house of horrors for them.
“It is rare, not only that the Mets win in Atlanta, but they are putting an ass whooping on the Braves,” Sal said. “So for all you Braves fans out there, take that.”
