It kind of doesn't matter once you're down 6-0 before you even come up to bat and 9-0 by the time you get your second chance

Oh cool it’s that part of the playoffs where Ted Cruz decides he needs a cheap hollow photo op and then everyone assumes the entire city of Houston loves him and definitely doesn’t hate his loving guts

Too late I think the entire city of Houston loves him. Now to take a big old drink and see who’s probably gonna be in the owners box at the next Rangers home game.

He weasled his way into the World Series victory parade and got heavily booed during it and then he famously got a White Claw can hucked at him and the guy beat the rap.

The man in the crowd beat the wrap with the transparent excuse that he was trying to pass the can directly at Ted's head because he wanted to give Ted a celebratory drink, not bean the piece of poo poo.

Why is this player doing the team wide “I hit a double” celebration they’ve been doing all year?? Is he trying to get the crowd back into the game when they’re down 9-0 in the second?? What a jerk! Stop showboating!

He's also the only actual pitcher they asked, so I'd chalk that up as ask me a stupid question and you get a stupid answer.

You must clarify.

One time I was deer hunting with some casual friends, and we’re driving around the lease in his truck after dark, and we’re all shifaced drunk, and he says, “What do you want to listen to?” And he holds up three Creed CDs.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Last Ranger game I went to half the players had some garbage Luke Bryant song or similar as their walkup music. Baseball mans often have bad taste in music.

Edit: Elvis Andrus loved trolling people with his walkup music though. For most of a season he used that horrible Chacarron song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlW7T0SUH0E), and then a few years later it was Baby Shark right at the start of that lunacy.

A "fun fact" that would get dropped in pieces on Spencer Strider when he debuted was that he had notably I guess like hip, or eccentric, taste in music, and when he got asked about it in more detail this offseason it was like The National and Vampire Weekend.
