Talton is known as The Freeze. At some of the Braves' games, he runs in an event called "Beat The Freeze."

A baseball fan at the game is chosen to race against The Freeze from left field to right field. The chosen fan gets a big head start.

In one recent game, a young man was about one third of the way across the field when Talton started running. When the fan neared the finish line, he started celebrating. He thought he was going to win. But Talton was catching up. With about five steps to go, the man looked over his shoulder and saw The Freeze.
在最近一场比赛中，当塔尔顿开始跑时，一位年轻球迷已经站在场上三分之一的位置。当这位球迷接近终点线时他开始庆祝。他以为自己要赢了。但是塔尔顿追上来了。大约在最后五步，这位球迷扭头一看，看到了“急冻侠”。
The fan was shocked, and fell down. He did not "Beat The Freeze."

Any fan that beats The Freeze gets a prize worth $100. One fan did win, but that was because of a mix-up. Talton did not get the signal to start running.
