Atlanta Braves Mascot Blooper Is Wrecking Phillies Fans On Social Media

Baseball fans are in for a treat when the Atlanta Braves and the Philadelphia Phillies begin their best-of-five NL Divisional Series this afternoon.

The two franchises have been around for more than 100 years and the rivalry has only grown more heated as both teams have gotten much better in recent years. The Braves won the World Series in 2021 while the Phillies lost in the World Series last year.

Not only are the two teams ready to battle it out, so too are their mascots, Blooper and the Phillie Phanatic. Both are notoriously known for their trolling antics.

BRAVES' BLOOPER GOING AFTER PHILLIES FANS

Now I'm not sure if Blooper was just being his same ol' self or if maybe he might of had a couple beverages last night, but he was definitely on one. Blooper had been dealing with Phillies fans giving him some attitude which the mascot did not take too kindly.

Things only escalated from there with Blooper mocking the Phillie Phanatic for being an out of touch elder and also brought in the Eagles-hating Dallas Cowboys to the fight!

At one point, Blooper even accused Philly fans of wanting to spit in his food.

PHILLIES FANS REACTED ACCORDINGLY

Blooper has a lot to be proud of after the Braves finished first in the National League East and 14 games ahead of the Phillies. But of course Philly fans don't care about facts - with many going at Blooper this morning on social media.

As a Yankees fan who has nothing in this fight because my team stinks, I am all about this Braves-Phillies series. Not only are the Phillies up against the World Series favorite Braves, but they are gritty (literally the Philadelphia Flyers mascot name) and are resilient.

Add the social media trolling and back and forth call outs... Let's go. I want an absolute battle especially after the Wild Card round was a snooze fest with all four games being sweeps.

First pitch for tonight's game is 6:07pm ET.
