If you’re going to The Freeze, you better be able to run – and you better run fast.
Unfortunately for an Atlanta Braves fan on Thursday, he taunted Freeze and it blew up in spectacular fashion.
During Braves games, The Freeze races a fan on the caution track outside the field. The fans always get a big advantage, but the Freeze almost always catches up and wins the race.

This fan decided to step forward and blow a kiss to Freeze as he began running down the left field foul line. Big mistake.
Then the fan started working but did not reach the highest speed. He then turned around and saw Freeze making rapid progress and shifting into a higher gear.
Unfortunately for him, this was too little, too late.

Freeze returned the favor by blowing a kiss to the fan as he walked past him.
After leaving the fan in the dust, The Freeze turned on cruise control and slowed it down a bit before crossing the finish line along the right field foul line.
The Braves are trying to avoid acting like fans and making a big difference. They are 61-42 and have a 5½ game lead over the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League East.
