The boys of summer! (Baseball Thread)

[Irish2155]

In any inning, a lead off bomb is better than a lead off walk.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Ohtani can’t stay back right now.

Get your balance, stay closed, and trust your hands…big guy. Easier said than done.

Yup. And he’s guessing a lot, too.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Parlayed Dodgers ML with the under 7.5. We’ll see…

I think the under is a good play but Dodgers bully can shit all over that.

 

[Irish2155]

Yup. And he’s guessing a lot, too.

Chasing outside the zone, too. Nobody is catching heat above the strike zone besides Bonds jr on juice

 

[Irish2155]

Why would they go soft down and away vs Ohtani?

He can’t touch high and hard but he will chase up stairs.

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Yamamoto is so fun to watch.

 

[Irish2155]

This dude for the Brew has went 0-2 four times in a row without an out. Just walked them full

And of course, Ohtani leaves them juiced.

Complete game 3 hitter. Gave up a first pitch bomb.

Great pitching performance… also fun when your daughter’s good friend (Justin Dean) subs into CF in the 9th, makes a catch and collects the playoff bonus $$. Just brought up to the bigs at the end of the year for D and speed!! So cool

Roberts was like "I ain't goin back to that BP unless someone makes me."

Yeah it’s cool to see a career minor leaguer get a taste. His speed definitely got him there. Maybe he can have a moment similar to Dave Roberts when he had his famous SB for the BoSox

super cool.

First pitch of the game gave yard. Absolutely dealt from pitch 2.

That split is nasty.

It warms my heart that the Pope is a true Sox fan trolling the Cubs from the Vatican. One of us! One of us!

 

[Irish2155]

Parlayed the Jays ML and the over 7.

How many 100 loss seasons is that for the Sox in a row?

The Sox are bad. I get it. Both teams still watching this series and the next on TV. Pope didn't troll my team.

 

[Irishdwarte]

The Cubs living rent free in the Pope’s head just like your shitty owner

 

[Irish2155]

Wrigley is by far the worst park in the bigs. Victory Field (AAA Indy Indians for the Pirates) is much better than Wrigley. So is the Fort Wayne Tin Caps stadium (high-A ball) called Parkland

I’ve seen a lot and of course Fenway was the best. PNC Park in Pittsburgh is still on the bucket list, too.

I keep it simple and hate all teams from Chicago.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

George Springer is at another level in the post-season. Did it in Houston and continues in Toronto

 

[Bane]

1 of 1. Easily my favorite player in the league.

While pitching 6 (2 hit) scoreless innings!! 🐐

 

[T-Boone]

I bet that’s never been done before.

 

[Irishdawg]

Truly Historic performance by Ohtani!!

 

[Irishdawg]

Still hard to believe what Ohtani did last night!


 

[Bane]

If you’re having a bad day, take solace in the fact you’ll probably never be this wrong about something in your life.

Don't shoot the messenger. It wasn't his scouting report.
