BJ hit the tying HR in the bottom of the 9th, Justin hit the winning HR.... also in the bottom of the 9th!
and marmol is looking over his shoulder at the next cubs closer
I was wondering if this was the first time ever but the Ripken brothers hit homeruns in the same inning before and I guess in the same game has happened over 20 times.
Anyway it was a cool highlight to watch.
I want to say I heard last night that is was the first time brothers hit the tying and winning homeruns in the same inning. Couldn't swear to it though, I got pretty drunk last night.
Just confirmed via Chip & Joe.
Oh yeah figured that was the case that would be very rare below is a link with the story. I was actually surprised that two brothers hit homers in the same inning prior to last night, Ripkens in 1996 (mention both about half way down)
Y! SPORTS
They was pretty cool to watch and I bet the Braves are hoping BJ plays better since he has his brother around.
