Forever Young

I chose the title of this blog post not because I'm a huge Rod Stewart fan (I'd say I moderately appreciate his work), but because Chipper Jones seems to be drinking from the fountain of youth. I also chose this title because that's how watching Chipper, my boyhood idol, play baseball makes me feel. Forever young.

Last Sunday night was a night that will undoubtedly be put on his Hall of Fame highlight reel. The Braves were trailing 7-3 going into the bottom of the 9th inning when they rallied after a great at bat by Michael Bourn, a fortuitous error by the Phillies and then a magnificent at bat by Chipper. I'm not ready to say goodbye to Chipper yet. When he's still providing memories like this, how can I?
