The pearls are actually a nod to Joc Pederson of the Atlanta Braves! We watched the World Series and wore our "pearls" like Joc! I think they were lucky! The Braves won the series!
It's been a while since I have followed baseball at all, but my sis and her hubby lived in Atlanta for a number of years and are BIG fans, so we enjoyed "participating!"
The dolphin brooch was one of several birthday gifts from my sister!
OH! This little sweetie, David, showed up at our door in New Orleans- he is obviously an Atlanta Braves bear- what a cute little nose! He says he was named after David Justice, who played for the Braves! We were glad he found us!!
HTBT!
The Marlins and Braves played the final game of a four-game set at Sun Trust Park in Atlanta on Wednesday night, August 15, 2018, and Atlanta Braves rookie phenom Ronald Acuna, Jr. came in on a historically rare hot streak. The 20-year-old had homered in five straight games, and led off the last three games with a home run. More to point, he homered twice against the Marlins on Tuesday night.
All of that from a rookie when Miami starter Jose Urena deliberately drilled the young leftfielder with the first pitch of the ballgame, a 97 mph fastball aimed straight at Acuna's elbow, forcing him to leave the game.
I'm sure baseball fans all throughout the USA were thrilled by Acuna's exploits and saddened by the despicable action of the Miami pitcher.
It's a sad day for baseball when something like this happens, especially to such a young and exciting athlete who just wants to play ball. If MLB is serious about preventing this sort of behavior they must act swiftly to severely penalize pitcher Urena. They simply should not turn a blind eye to this as they did to the extensive use of performance enhancing drug use among players for so many years. Shame on MLB if they don't act to suspend Urena now.
FOLLOW UP: Urena was ultimately given a light six day suspension by Joe Torre. C'mon, Joe. This is equivalent to a one day suspension because pitchers don't play every day and will mean that Urena will miss just one start. Deliberately throwing a 97.5 mph hard ball at another human being is unacceptable. Shame on MLB!

Photo taken during the Toronto Blue Jays - Atlanta Braves game on June 20, 2018. The score was unfavorable for Toronto (4-11), but it didn't matter to me as I was a neutral spectator! Saw a lot of hits and RBI's! And one of the best sunsets ever!

The Braves lost to the White Sox 13-9. I'm starting to think that we are bad luck for the home team. This is our 28th major league park.

The Wynne-Claughton Building, also known as the Carnegie Building, is a 12-story office building in downtown Atlanta. Designed as an office building by noted Georgia architect G. Lloyd Preacher and completed in 1925, the flatiron-shaped building is supported by a reinforced-concrete frame, which is reflected in the vertical piers and horizontal spandrel panels that define the building’s exterior. Its prominent west-facing corner is streamlined by smooth, round corner piers. The Wynne-Claughton Building is a Chicago School skyscraper in which the three-part exterior reflects the proportions of classical column with a base of storefronts, a shaft of repeating floors of offices, and a capital formed by the attic story. The exterior features Neoclassical Revival-style ornament in the carved limestone that frames the storefronts and in the elaborate pressed-metal entablature. This building was determined to be significant at the local level in the area of architecture because it is an excellent example of a tall office building built in Atlanta in the first decades of the 20th century. It was also significant at the local level in the area of commerce because of its association with the expansion of commercial activity north along Peachtree Street and because it provided office space to scores of small businesses & regional headquarters that needed to be located in downtown Atlanta in the early 1920's. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on March 26, 2012. All of the information above along with much more was found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration that can be viewed here: catalog.archives.gov/id/93208410
