World Series Game 3: Houston, we have a series

[glasspusher]

hahaha

 

[SoxFanInCali]

That's huge. Was set up to be another squander.

 

[jon abbey]

I blame Gary Sanchez.

 

[glasspusher]

Utley wasn't touching that low pitch. A professional hitter.

 

[glasspusher]

I blame Gary Sanchez.

He never should have been put in that situation! Fire Girardi!

 

[VORP Speed]

That makes it a bit more interesting

 

[patinorange]

Utley is horrendous so far in the post season. My man Dave Roberts, the pixie dust is wearing off.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Who knows. I bet racial shit is more common in clubhouses than we would like to think. I mean some of these guys are pretty stunted in their social emotional development. For all we know he's just tapping into some racist crap that was going around with a teammate or two before the game about hitting the Asian pitcher and the camera caught a continuation of pregame horseshit. It didn't seem like anyone on the bench got after him about it, though they may not have noticed.

Typical Cuban, huh?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Chase Utley is 38. Wow.

He plays every bit of it.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Brandon Morrow now?

 

[glasspusher]

Those WS patches are...gaudy.

 

[glasspusher]

Good call.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Typical Cuban, huh?

Is this a joke or was my post anti-Cuban? I didn't mean it that way.

I actually had no idea from which Spanish speaking country Guriel hails.

It was a joke. Clearly a bad one.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

Morrow doesn't exactly look effortless to me.

 

[glasspusher]

Not a good idea to walk guys ahead of Altuve...

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

It was a joke. Clearly a bad one.

I don't care for Mark Cuban. Does that count?

 

[Al Zarilla]

This guy up now is pretty small. He couldn’t hit much, could he?

 

[glasspusher]

I don't care for Mark Cuban. Does that count?

No man is an island.

 

[glasspusher]

huge K

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

I don't care for Mark Cuban. Does that count?

I've heard he doesn't like Chinese food.

 

[DanoooME]

Altuve looked terrible in that AB.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

That's as bad as Altuve has looked in an AB in about 4 months.

 

[glasspusher]

wow. stones.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Morrow has pitched in 10 of the Dodgers' 11 playoff games.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

No man is an island.

My three minutes of trying to make up some funny baseball, World Series, or Yuli Guriel is an asshole joke riffing off the bell tolling is up.

So, I'll just say that was clever.

I didn't think your comment of "some of these guys are emotionally immature" was racist at all.

 

[glasspusher]

this ump's been inconsistent, to put it mildly

 

[InsideTheParker]

Racism has nothing to do with people's looks. Yu Darvish is very good looking, Gurriel not so much. It is a way of pigeon-holing. Not very nice, and I hope there's some way of fining Gurriel for that.

 

[teddywingman]

Jeter would have had that.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Yikes!

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Just the Cuban ones.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Just the Cuban ones.

Smiley faces won’t get you out of it.

 

[glasspusher]

Sliding head first into first, a baseball tradition.

 

[teddywingman]

Where'd they get this jamoke?

 

[barbed wire Bob]

Oh boy, a country version of God Bless America!

The hair is not for you, huh?

Speaking of pigeons, this Peacock is showing some mettle.

And, speaking of peacocks, Darwin wrote a lot about them. He used their plumage as a case study for his theory of sexual selection.

Which brings us full circle to Yu Darvish, who seems from your account to have the human equivalent of plumage.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Where'd they get this jamoke?

Texas

 

[Soxfan in Fla]

Where'd they get this jamoke?

That was fucking awful.

 

[Blue Monkey]

I'm pretty sure this guy has never played the guitar before

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Conway Twitty.

 

[glasspusher]

Where'd they get this jamoke?

If Oakland ever has a disaster, I can do a better rendition of this song, singing and playing guitar. So, you all better hope Oakland stays OK.

 

[Al Zarilla]

That was fucking awful.

Kate Smith is really rolling over in her grave.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

As a non-religious person who hates forced displays of patriotism, I flipped away for a couple minutes.

 

[barbed wire Bob]

That was fucking awful.

Meh, God (and Zenith) gave us a mute button for a reason.

 

[teddywingman]

As a non-religious person who hates forced displays of patriotism, I flipped away for a couple minutes.

You missed an amazing rendition.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Drop dead Gurriel.

 

[AimingForYoko]

Boo.Hiss.

 

[glasspusher]

Meh, God (and Zenith) gave us a mute button for a reason.

Zenith made a mute button so you could avoid listening to the nadir of performances?

It was God’s will.
