The Mariano Rivera commemorative patch
Because he is already a legend, he deserve to have something like this on his final homestand.

How much does baseball love Chipper?
 |
| c/o NY Times |
The farewell tour for Chipper Jones is ongoing and almost coming to a close, and baseball has been grateful to have this lifer represent the game with class and grace. How much does the game love him? Let them count the ways...
The remaining schedule of the Braves has them currently at Miami. They play two more games there, then travel to Philadelphia for their final three-game road trip. That is why you may be wondering why aren't the Marlins and the Phillies on that group of teams with send off packages for the future Hall-of-Fame third baseman.
They host the Marlins and the Mets to end the regular season, and considering how much he has been a terror to the Metropolitans throughout his career, it may be fitting that his final regular season games are with them (49 HRs, 159 RBIs, 20 SBs, .311 BA, .408 OBP, .548 SLG).
They still have a chase for the NL East, five games back of the Nationals. They do, however have a stranglehold on one of the two wildcard spots, with a 7.5 game edge over the other team (currently the St. Louis Cardinals).

Greetings!
Hello and I wish you all a Happy National Heroes Day in the Motherland.
In a sport that is regarded highly by its citizens, any achievement by someone or by a team garner attention in these parts. Sure, the opponent is currently composed of imports plying their trade in the continent, but we Filipinos take pride in beating the Americans in the process of winning a tournament, something we have not accomplished in 14 years. Look at the curated reaction from the Motherland.
It was a satisfying victory for a nation starving for success in a sport it dearly loves. And as such, they come home on a holiday that honors heroism, something they have in spades.
