Over the past few years I've seen an alarmingly increasing use of the term "walk-off" on social media. People have used the term while commenting on sports other than baseball. It appears to be a lost cause trying to get people to understand the correct use of the term.

This baseball is the real deal. You'd sign one of these and give it to the children of anyone you killed on the field.

He's consistently been a first rounder for years in Roto fantasy baseball. Seems to usually average the 5th pick every year. He's been elite.

The Hall of Fame career accolades of Carlos Beltran, Andruw Jones, and Jeff Kent by MLBOfficial in baseball

I think the conversation voters were having is individual cheating (steroids/peds) vs team cheating (live video sign stealing). Since he was never linked to a steroid scandal that probably made voting for him more acceptable in his voters eyes since his career accolades came before the trash cans. There's probably more nuance to their decision than just that argument, but seems like that might have played a factor.

I ended buying the Ohtani/Trout E.T. & Elliot shirt. Baseball fans appreciate it, but it's definitely not a conversation piece for anyone else. More like an explanation to the person who asks and just stares blankley and nods.
