  • I'm so happy for this to be tied up 2-2! My heart is hurting because baseball is almost over, I just want as many games as possible. The more intense the better. I've still got my fingers crossed for a game 7.

    who fuckin cares. Hypersensitive virtue signaling.



    dudes from cuba. Not exactly social justice hub. Can barely speak english. People just want to be mad about something because they lost. 



    Comedians say and do worse shit on nightly basis. If this really offends someone I have no clue what to even say.





    edit: Just watched his interview. He said he was describing asianpitchers.  And how he has no luck. He cant speak english very well and was making a describing gesture. He played in Japan before. He wasnt mocking anyone. He was describing. 





    You do realize the slanted eye move has been deragatory for asians since like world war 2 right? Its never been a “describing gesture”



    Nice to see dodgers tie it up, I really want kershaw to get a ring.

    was it innapropriate/unprofessional? yeah



    was it racist? no by definition. The word racist has been diluted to where it has no meaning anymore.



    Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.



    Deserve the outrage it got? hell no. Just a bunch of people virtue signaling

     
  • Man, what a series thus far. I can't remember the last time a 3 or 4 run lead felt so insignificant.
  • crazy game 5 thus far... awesome series so far as well.

    So he couldn't just ask Jose Altuve how to say Japonese in Spanish? Neither of the teams are my hometeam, so I won't be heart broken with the outcome of the series, but it is pathetic the league is deciding to suspend Gurriel at the start of the season and not immediately. The disrespectful behavior is being rewarded. If a teammate screws up and gets suspended, the team suffers and has to deal with it. The World Series and Darvish dealing this with class is not a reason to wait to suspend. Ridiculous.
  • Maybe this has something to do with these teams coming up so clutch at the plate.... I had read earlier this year that players felt the balls are liver this year than previous. Now the balls are apparently slicker. Putting pitchers at a disadvantage.

    I hadn't watched a WS in years, very lucky that I decided to watch it this time.
  • Did they do something to the ball? The amount of home runs is nuts.

    There has been a buzz all year that the balls are being wound tighter which would make balls travel further. They are also saying that the balls are slicker this post season, which would make breaking balls harder to throw causing them to hang and fastballs harder to keep down, both of which would lead to some harder hit balls.



    Regardless.... with how exciting the world series has been, I can all but guarantee you that the mlb will not be going back to the old balls next year (If there was a change in the first place).
  • Makes sense. If you can't make the game shorter, make HR/hits easier.



    It's a business after all.
  • Well guys this game has been nuts. Emotional rollercoaster



    Ump tonight was just terrible all around for both teams.





    still got a 9th inning to go. chaos. Please just finish it out astros
  • These teams don't quit!
  • Wow!! Tie game , crazy

    Typically they do make these type of suspensions wait until the next season.  It's happened this way before.  I did actually expect it to go down this way if at all.

     
  • I hope y'all weren't expecting 8hrs sleep tonight. This game could go on for a while.
  • i swear to god.....can we not have nice things



    we had the game again



    The bullpen is just a dumpster
  • This series is amazing if you dont give a shit about either team.

    It's near impossible to have a complete team.  Just hope Houston has enough to make it happen.

    Ding ding! X2 lol
  • Now actively rooting for either team to win so we can go to sleep!
  • Wow. Great game. Not as much of a heart attack for me as G7 of last year, but definitely one of the better back & forth baseball games I've ever watched.

    Lol you got your wish
  • What a thriller that game was. Go 'Stros!
  • That game was nuts. What a game.



    2 shots to win in LA. I feel it comes down to verlander game 6 though
  • What an incredible game, I had a lot of money riding on a Houston win (got in at the +140 money line before the late push down), the swings were insane!
  • Quick first inning for Verlander. If the Astros can clinch it tonight then I hope it is a CGSO for Verlander. I kinda want a G7 tho.
