Mega Thread MLB season 2024

Flaherty pitched well. 5 hits isn’t ideal but 6 Ks. Cole only had 4.

 

[IKnowtheDog]

Fans know the rules.

I have watched it on replay and that fan knew ffs.

Feel for his kid. Possibly has missed the greatest finish ever in a World Series game

On a side note, f**k me verdugo is some fielder. Those catches to end the 9th and get ohtani out were ridiculous.

 

[flamethrower]

Having serious 1988 vibes after that.

Deja vu all over again, I don't believe what I just saw.

Gibby on 2 bad legs walks off the A's, Freddie on 1 bad leg walks off the Yanks - hopefully there is some great commentary somewhere too as the call from MLB International was lame.

That fast ball before the breaking ball that Stanton slapped for a homer was such a waste. He tempted fate by trying to get a third breakballing strike in a row and paid for it dearly. Hopefully it is a good learning lesson.

He helped his team win by interfering and will get his 5 minutes of fame.

 

[CURVE]

Happy for Freddie, but still wish he was at Atlanta.

Mlb normally struggles for recognition and media coverage especially when competing against the other North American sport markets, ie .NFL,NBA and NHL. It took a matchup of titans in New York vs LA to draw real national interest. This series will bring a whole wave of new fans to the sport.

 

[Seattle Mariners]

Obviously a WS game for the ages.

Sorry to nit pick but I’ve always wondered why we get the international broadcast for the World Series rather than the US Fox Sports telecast per the division and champion series.

The international broadcast doesn’t do in game and post game interviews and it just seemed a bit anti climatic not to hear from Freddie Freeman the match winner.

 

[JLC]

I have gone back and watched the Torres fan interference.

I don't see how they can be sure that would not have been a home run? I have freeze framed it etc

The fan catches it and then drags the ball in his glove down which makes it look lower - like when a catcher frames the pitch.

I don't know what they said on the coverage at the time but it looks like a bad call to me.

It means we don't get John Smoltz who is a terrible colour commentator. For whatever bizarre reason MLB has a separate TV contract for the World Series. Can't think of any other sport league that does it.

The right field umpire called interference so they needed conclusive proof to overturn it. If it was ruled a HR it would've stayed a HR. I think it would've hit the top of the wall and had a chance of bouncing over

Can see that we now shifted freeman to the clean up spot.Hopefully the bottom of the order of this lineup is able to get on base for ohtani and betts.

 

[RPCB]

Say what you will about pregame entertainment for the AFL GF but at least the game starts on schedule and they don’t milk it like this.

 

[RPCB]

You know the home plate umpire is going to have a good game today.

 

[JLC]

Lol Judge ffs.

Much too easy of an out. Anyone else would get torched for this. Post season is what actually matters.

 

[JLC]

Tommy Edman lol Post Season of his life.

 

[celestial]

Tommy playoff edman

 

[JLC]

Juan best hitter in baseball Soto

I cannot believe they don't walk him and put h to Judge

 

[Upstart Swan]

Freddie again!
Yankees need to pull Rodon, he's not right at the moment

 

[celestial]

This is what i wanted , get the bullpen in early.

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Oh hai zackah

You cannot 'dodge' my raspberries from here

They do the same for the Super Bowl on ESPN. It makes no sense - fans want the broadcast coverage not the international feed

 

[celestial]

This has been some performance from our starters. Got the length we wanted from both of them , goes a long way towards saving our bullpen for when the series moves to new york.

 

[largebus]

Boone pulled Cole too early last night and feel like Roberts is doing the same here. Might not matter, though, Yankees are ice cold and can't even work the count
