The boys of summer! (Baseball Thread)

[IRISHDODGER]

Dodgers pitcher Yamamoto pitches 8 2/3 no-hit baseball.

Gives up HR to Jackson Holiday to make score 3-1 before being relieved.

Relieve just has to get one out w/ bases empty. Proceeds to give up a double to first batter he faces. Follows that up w/ HBP & a walk to load bases. Still just need one out.

Walks another batter to make score 3-2. Is replaced by another reliever who just happened to give up a walk-off HR to Orioles last night. He proceeds to give up a base hit up the middle to lose the game 4-3

Talk about an emotional swing. Orioles fans had conceded loss and just wanted to witness no-hitter. Then they‘re soon back on their feet rooting for a 9th inning come from behind win.

Gotta love baseball. But I fucking HATE walks.

Looking forward to seeing the highlights of that.

Tanner Scott be like:

no doubt. As he said last night, “Baseball hates me right now”

Treinen (who is usually a frisbee throwing wizard) is the one who loaded the bases and then walked in 2nd run.

Lead off bomb is better than a lead off walk. Bomb = 1, lead off walk = ……

Shit happens and that’s a tough pill to swallow. Baseball is a funny game.

My last game ever was in Lewiston ID NAIA CWS 4/5 game . We lost on a last out routine grounder to 2nd that launched off our closers mouthpiece that he spit out. True story. Shit happens. But we still made @MacIrish75 proud.

It didn’t help that our coach stood us up at the bus with no communication every year on our way to ID. Another true story…

It was the magic in the stadium from celebrating 30 years since the 2131 game for Cal.

 

[Irish2155]

Fucking Yankees beat the Sox again tonight.

I’ve had better days.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Clayton Kershaw is retiring.

See you in Cooperstown. One of the best in my lifetime, without question.

12+ games out of it in late August. Now I think we are only 3.5 back of first with a series to end the regular season. This is getting good.

15.5 at one point lol.

Back in October I just had a feeling and grabbed Guardians to make the playoffs at 51/1 and win the central at 220/1 on Fanduel lol

 

[T-Boone]

I don’t think the Yankees can catch Blue Jays even with a very easy last 10 games.

Since going to a 6 man rotation we all of a sudden have become unstoppable

As much as I would love to see it, I agree. The bullpen blows too many games

 

[Irish2155]

Cleveland is rolling, 7 straight. Not good.

 

[dang227]

It’s is if you are an Indians fan

 

[Irish#1]

Yankees creeping up on Toronto. Only a game back. I hate to admit it 2155, but I'm a Red Sox fan for the moment. lol

 

[irishnd31]

Go Guardians.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Go Guardians.

Prayers to your guy that caught the wild pitch to the face. Was watching in real time & I think Skubal’s reaction tells it all. 🙏

 

[irishnd31]

Yeah, if our boys play in October, Fry would have been a factor. Hoping he is OK.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Go Guardians.

I love the way this organization is run. As a fan of Chicago teams, I'm kind of a fan of the way most organizations are run. LOL.

They're my late cousin Ray's team and I want them to win a World Series in my lifetime because they fell short a few times during his. I can't say he'll be there when it happens, but I will and I'll be thinking of him.

Let this be the year.

 

[irishnd31]

Let's win it for Ray!
I know you've always pulled for my Guardians/ Indians my brother.
If we can add to the core of the team and add a few bats, this team will be dangerous. For them to be 15.5 games down in July and to take the lead in the AL Central is nothing short of miraculous. I love "Guards Ball". Other teams hate it because our success is built upon great pitching top to bottom, great defense, chaos, with a dash of Ramirez and Kwan.

Let's not be insensitive. Tarik Skubal is going through a lot right now after hitting Fry in the face. Let's cheer on the Tigs for Skubie's sake.

My apologies for the insensitivity...

Hats off to Skubal, he is a good dude and one hell of a pitcher

It's weird being a White Sox fan and having a tad bit of affinity for them.

The Tigers and Twins, however, can gently f*ck off.

My thoughts exactly. I'll even add the Royals to that list. I actually like the Pale Hoses.

George Brett was my favorite player growing up. When KC was in the old AL West with the White Sox. They're alright.

Get a room! You guys make me sick, you're supposed to be division foes.

F*ck the Twins, Sox, Guardians and Royals equally. lol

 

[Irish#1]

I'm rooting for the Red Sox again tonight.
