Francisco Cabrera is the otherwise mediocre and long-forgotten Atlanta Brave whose 9th inning hit beat the Pirates in 92, their last chance at greatness.

His is the name of stunning defeat.

We had a legitimate goal called back on Saturday. It was called a goal on the ice, went to Toronto for review and they said it was kicked in. The goalie was the only one who had a foot near the puck! Outrageous, and luckily, it did not affect the outcome. Normally they cheer for the Russian guy when there is a bad call but this time they were chanting against Toronto. This is the second time in 2 weeks we’ve gotten bad calls from them, when the video is obvious. Something stinks in Canada.
