the popes toes posted:n: O's and Boston's bad blood just got simmering again as Baltimore's Bundy tags Betts with a HBP. There's a lot of stinkeye coming from the Boston dugout and the on-air guys say it's not going to take much more to clear the benches. Wasn't that '08 or '09? Everything about that ruled. The one game where Jonny Gomes (who was basically the enforcer) ran in from right field and did a flying tackle on the Sox player who did a dirty slide was the best.

quote:BOSTON -- Baltimore Orioles All-Star center fielder Adam Jones was berated by racist taunts at Fenway Park while a bag of peanuts was thrown at him Monday night, calling it one of the worst cases of fan abuse he has heard in his career. Keep it classy Boston.

Ryan Goins hit the ever rare 2-run sacrifice fly last night. Also the Jays are finally out of last place in baseball.ROCK THE HOUSE M.D. posted:Probably more to do with the park than the staff. The dinger dome is a long way from a pitcher's paradise.

Reminder for the new thread that Pancakes, Inspector_666, and myself will be meeting up in Wicker Park, Chicago, this Saturday (May 6) for lunch. If you're interested in joining us, shoot me a PM. Bonus points if you can also come up with a good joke that begins with "a Cubs fan, a Cardinals fan, and a Yankees fan walk into a bar".

Sydin posted:I like the part in Fastball where a physicist explains why it's impossible for a fastball to actually rise and the perception comes from a disconnect between the balls actual speed and what the brain expects it to be, then it cuts back to Bryce Harper who goes "nah man it rises, I dun see it. Maybe those eggheads should step in a batter's box." Was it Hank Aaron who was like "you tell me bob gibson's fastball didn't rise you pussy academic" although he was more eloquent than that

Conversely, there's no shortage of people, including local Alt-Right dipshit Turtleboy, accusing Jones of making it up.

quote:"He's got a look on his face sometimes, it's a little Norman Bates here and there," manager Buck Showalter said, referring to the fictional murderer in Alfred Hitchcock's classic thriller. "Norman Bates is probably a little too strong. You know [Tillman is] listening to you, but he's pissed off about something." Old quote. Still funny.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Old quote. Still funny. Showalter is apt to mumble just about anything. He once, in a conversation regarding what traits to look for when drafting, recommended against drafting any player with freckles. Because you see, no great player in the history of the sport has had freckles.

Also, from the comments: quote:Setting my alarm for 530AM to get the full 4.5 hours of Kirk and Callahan on WEEI with the HOTTEST TAKES. It’s going to be great. You’ll get Sully from Carver with his “I have a black friend” take. You’ll get Ben from Manchester who once sat in the out field in Fenway in the 1980s and NEVER HEARD A RACIST COMMENT, so THEY NEVER HAPPEN. You’ll get Jimmy from Dorchestah: “Listen, Kirk. My people wah slaves too ya know. We wah forced to come to Americah and wahk hahdah than any othah immigrants. My pa’s pa had ta wait last befah he could drink from the bubblah when he was scrubbin’ bahahcahls offah ships laid up in Fall Rivah.” Then Curt Schilling will call in and the full stupid will kick in.

The REAL Goobusters posted:They should be fined imo There's no way the stadium or team would realistically be able to enforce it except to ban them from the stadium until it's paid - then you have people bitching about free speech without actually understanding what it is. I instead submit that they should have their pictures taken and posters be hung with their pictures and "I'm a stupid dumb racist" printed on them.

How about just a lifetime ban from Fenway, so you don't send the message that it's ok to shout racial epithets as long as you're wealthy
