That ball went from his bat to the stands so quickly that he was rounding second before i knew what the gently caress just happened

I thought for sure Kipnis had walked it off the following inning until they turned to show it was foul.

Arizonan that only pays attention to this sport when the Dbacks are doing exciting things here - this Corbin Carroll guy is real good at baseball.

The last Dbacks game I went to was the NLDS against the Rockies when they had to stop play because everyone started throwing poo poo on the field.

So that makes us about the same.

Maybe don’t sign an interim manager after a hit streak

You need real people managing a baseball team

I only pay attention when they're good but I grew up in AZ so I've always been a fan, yeah. I went to game 2 of the 2001 WS and my parents are going to go to the WS this year if they make it

Two of my three children have switched their allegiance to the Phillies based on their objectively excellent mascot.
One remains ride-or-die for Baxter and is positioning himself well for a better share of inheritance.

we went to Cooperstown in 2017 to see the World Series exhibit, they had a 5 minute video loop of highlights everyone was watching. we were the only folks in cubs hats that I could tell anyway. when it got to the rajai homer we both just reflexively did the exhale-raspberry-fart noise thing and several people chuckled

So is this like a really bad choke for the Phillies if they lose this or is it just a close series between two good-rear end teams that didn't break their way, cause I'm sorta leaning both ways right now.
