Max Muncy’s wife shares perfectly timed tribute against Braves

· California Post

The Los Angeles Dodgers’ mostly stagnant offense received a surge of life when Max Muncy hit a home run with two outs in ninth inning during Sunday’s NLDS game against the Atlanta Braves.

Unfortunately, the solo shot wasn’t enough to bring Los Angeles back. Josue De Paula popped out one batter later, cementing the Braves 3-2 win and evening the series 1-1 as it heads to Atlanta.

Muncy always has a great support system at home games. His wife, Kellie, and their three children are Dodger Stadium mainstays and were present during Sunday’s game.

It seemed that Kellie tried to spark some good fortune for her husband’s team. She made an Instagram post showing the hilarious Max Muncy bobblehead t-shirts that she and the children were wearing. It was captioned, “Keepin’ it 💯 for game ✌🏼🥵”.

The post was made late in Sunday’s game, a short time before Muncy hit that ninth inning blast.

This marked the second straight game where Muncy hit a home run, extending his record for the most homers in franchise history (18).

Muncy is one of the few Dodgers players who are clicking at the plate right now.

Fans will hope that Kellie makes another Instagram post during Game 3 on Tuesday, since it seems to be a good luck charm for her husband.
