They\u2019re 44-22 since they bolstered their team on July 30, remaking their outfield.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>Freddie Freeman called it \u201cpretty amazing\u201d the Braves were still playing given how their season went and the moves it made at the deadline. Marcell Ozuna is on administrative leave after being arrested on assault charges after allegedly assaulting his wife. Ronald Acuna Jr. had surgery to repair his ACL and the Braves were saved by the arrival of Joc Pederson, Eddie Rosario, Jorge Soler and Adam Duvall.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got a whole different team pretty much in the outfield,\u2019\u2019 Freeman said. \u201cWe were just trying to figure out how all this worked. \u2026 We were just trying to figure out how all these pieces fit on our team. Next thing you know, about a month in, the pieces started fitting, and we started rolling as a group. To have a whole new outfield that you did in April than you did at the end of July, it\u2019s hard to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>As Baker prepares to face the organization that drafted him in the World Series, he was asked about the effect Hank Aaron had on him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think about him all the time, especially in a series like this,\u2019\u2019 Baker said. \u201cI feel his presence, especially him and my dad.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/dusty-baker-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Manager Dusty Baker of the Houston Astros stands on the field prior to Game Five of the American League Championship Series against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on October 20, 2021 in Boston, Massachusetts.\" class=\"wp-image-19906142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/dusty-baker-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/dusty-baker-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/dusty-baker-1.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Dusty Baker leads the Astros to their third World Series. appearance in the last five years.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Baker made his MLB debut with Atlanta in 1968, when he was 19 and Aaron was a 34-year-old slugger. \u201cHe had a tremendous impact not only on the baseball field, but in my life and in my family and in business. I\u2019ll be forever grateful to him, and he\u2019s had probably a great impact also on [Atlanta manager Brian] Snitker over there because he hired him when Hank was a farm director to begin his managerial career. So Hank\u2019s footprints are all over this series.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>This is Baker\u2019s second appearance managing in the World Series \u2014 and first since 2002, when he was with the Giants. San Francisco lost to the Angels in a series in which one of the most memorable moments was J.T. Snow grabbing Baker\u2019s 3-year-old son, Darren, who was a bat boy for the Giants and was near home plate as Snow crossed the plate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTime passes very quickly, and we are remembering that time,\u2019\u2019 Baker said of Darren, who is now 22 and was drafted by the Nationals in the 10th round of this year\u2019s amateur draft. \u201cEverybody remembers that except him. He\u2019s the only one that doesn\u2019t remember it. People remind him of it all the time. Sometimes he gets tired of talking about it, but it is part of my history, Giants history, baseball history, and his history. Now he\u2019s trying to make his own history with the Nationals as a player, and I\u2019m just glad that he was able to be here for this.\u201d\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
