D-Backs' Bradley holds fan accountable for tattoo promise

If there's a lesson to be learned in the aftermath of Archie Bradley's improbable run-scoring triple, it's this: Never make promises you can't keep.

This Twitter user wasn't exactly confident in Bradley's batting abilities when the Arizona Diamondbacks decided to let the reliever hit in Wednesday's tightly-contested National League wild-card game.

Unfortunately for Jeff, the right-hander has a flare for the dramatic. Bradley provided his team with a clutch, two-run triple in the bottom of the seventh inning, extending Arizona's lead to 8-5 at the time.

Late into the night, Bradley wanted to make sure Jeff was a man of his word.

What a shame.
