Mike Soroka might be in Atlanta on Friday, but his heart is in Calgary.

The Atlanta Braves pitcher, who is currently on the injured list while recovering from an Achilles injury, donned his home red Flames jersey to the ballpark in honor of Calgary, which is playing the Dallas Stars in Game 6 of the Western Conference First Round.

Soroka, an MLB All-Star in 2019 who finished second in the National League Rookie of the Year voting that season, was born and raised in Calgary.
Soroka is no stranger to Flames jerseys. He wore the team's "Blasty" logo Reverse Retro jersey

.
The 6-foot-5 right-hander strolled into the park in a Flames jersey adorned with his No. 40. He shared a picture to his Instagram story with the caption "Friday Red" and tagged the Flames.
As the Flames pointed out on Twitter, Soroka was awarded bonus points for rocking the cowboy boots.
