J-HEY HEY HEY! Jason Heyward BREAKS THE SCOREBOARD and then HOMERS in his next at-bat!

[@brandonyoung2894]

As an Atlanta Braves fan, I think I can speak for most of the Braves nation, we Atlanta fans we always rooted for Jason, being a local kid . We followed his Minor League career and was excited to see him in the majors. Go back and look at his first major league at bat! It’s hard to talk that. But much love for Jason.

[@David99356]

Exactly. We loved him and it was gut wrenching to trade him, but though his defense was stellar as usual, his offensive numbers just couldn’t justify having him on the roster. But he is a great guy, and I will always remember how instrumental he was in getting the cubs their first World Series win in 100 years.

[@ALANPA-do6sk4ej4z]

@Brandon, David, I send my biggest cheer to Jason! I'm a Dodgers fan, but I'm looking forward to seeing you at WS... From an MLB fan in Tokyo

[@austinfederspiel5781]

Yeah I grew up in Smyrna and watched him on the braves now I live in Houston and he came to the Astros

[@JustLikeHeaven77]

His AL West clinching 2 run go ahead HR hit the upper deck right above my seat. Section 154, Row 11, Seat 7. He made 2 great catches in the game as well.

[@adamd5849]

As a Cubs fan, I second this. He's a great person, and a key reason they broke their curse. Will always root for him

[@debopamroy56]

As a Dodgers fan, I was shocked to see him traded. I wish him nothing but the best for this man.

[@alisyed7659]

Jason was waived

[@austinfederspiel5781]

He wasn’t traded he was picked up off waivers

[@Mr_Bob_A_Feet]

Going to the Astros is the ultimate revenge for the Dodgers dropping him. 😂

[@rainbowhouse3427]

The Dodgers ain’t worried one bit, because their only going to face each other in the world series. Which is a win win regardless of the outcome imo.

Let’s Go Astros!!! Another former dodger who Immediately performs well when playing in Houston

[@austinfederspiel5781]

He’s playing better than he did with the dodgers his 2010 self looks like it’s coming back out to play

[@rainbowhouse3427]

He did play well for the Dodgers but once he got hurt and he went on a slump on his return, the Dodgers had no use for him besides pinch hitting and he did well pinch hitting. The Dodgers need versatility, they have so many outfielders and power hitter already.

J-Hey previously “enjoyed _The_ Friendly Confines”. When he played for the Cubs at Wrigley.

[@sant1982]

Heyward has done this to the Mariners twice in 5 weeks’ time! On 8/20/24, Dodgers tied w/ Mariners - 8th inning Heyward pinch-hit a 3-run HR in what would be his last at-bat w/ Dodgers (won 6-3 over Mariners)! - Dave Roberts likely recalling Heyward’s 9th inning pinch-hit Grand Slam on 6/18/24 to lead Dodgers in 7-run rally against the Rockies (won 11-9 over Rockies)! In 2023, .269 batting avg. 15 HR and .813 OPS w/ Dodgers; won 5 Gold Gloves w/ Braves & Cubs; won 2016 WS w/ Cubs …so much fun to watch Jason Heyward dazzle us in outfield and get clutch hits w/ Astros!! [Note: 2024 missed 40 games April/May “back tightness” and 11 games July “left knee bruise”]

@@narigon3942A huge mistake made by Dodgers.

[@ibrown3KC]

I wouldn't exactly call 397ft with 105 exit velocity a "bomb" for a MLB hitter. Guys like my Salvy Perez and Bobby Witt Jr. for my beloved Royals, and of course guys like Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton for the Yanks regularly hit home runs well over 450ft with exit velocities often topping 110, and occasionally even heading over 115-118 mph. Oh, and Ohtani makes 460 ft home runs with 118 mph exit velo seem routine. So yeah, no offense, but yeah, 397 feet us hardly even a home run at Kauffman stadium and 105 exit velo is average for the guys i just mentioned, ie Salvy, Witt, Judge, Stanton, and Ohtani.
