My favorite Dale Murphy moment was when he was a Philly, however. Remember

when the Braves and Phils got into a beanball squabble and Glavine was told to throw at Murphy? He liked Murphy so much he lobbed up three ball towards him that Murphy was out of the way of and almost laughing by the time the catcher caught it. The ump ejected Glavine on ball 4 and murphy and glavine nodded to each other and murphy jogged up to 1st.

Loved him as a Brave though.
