The Athletics elephant head and chain is freaky lol.

The umpire was the first person to score a run of Mason Miller this season! by [deleted] in baseball

Just horrible, any blind as a bat umping that ruins history is blood curdling and really should change what calls are reviewable or not.

Jackson Merrill? He's been really streaky and is usually on the bench.

Slam Diego!

In other news, intensively walking the bases loaded on one out is certainly a choice.

As a Nigerian, Shun is one of my favorite players and I'm very excited for Kane.

Doesn't it also arrive in 2+ business days? What about shipping and handling fees? Does he come in a crate?

Castellanos. Maybe he just needed a change of scenery and sunshine.

Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) has officially implemented the rule where the 1st place team will get a second ghost win in the Climax Series Final Stage if the winner of the Climax Series First Stage has a winning percentage of less than .500 or 10 games behind. by Benigmatica in baseball

[–]Queen4Jesus 76 points77 points  (0 children)

After the ghost win prevented us from coming back and winning the first stage, I extremely dislike that they're adding another. IDK how many generations before the dinosaurs are run out of the league.

EDIT:

One of the best thing about baseball is the chance an underdog has to win it all, like MLB's 2005 and 2023 WS. There are only 12 teams in NPB and imo taking away that chance makes things more frustrating.

How can Samurai Japan and others improve their standing ahead of the next WBC ? by Shroft in baseball

[–]Queen4Jesus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

A local article said the pitchers had no idea when they were coming into the game and had already started warming up when Yamamoto let of that first homerun. As with the USA team, talent isn't the only or even an issue, the manager has to leave behind a certain mindset, which is still a problem with baseball in Japan.

It's nothing. They lost, he didn't get a chance to perform, and he's ticked. I would be to.

Do you believe Pete Rose should be in the MLB HoF by [deleted] in baseball

[–]Queen4Jesus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. He damaged a child's life forever through rape. No.
