I’d do incredibly terrible things if it meant Dodgers getting Ohtani. Living in Japan I see Angels jerseys everywhere and I can’t take it anymore lol

I want to be excited about the perfect game I do it's the team I love for goodness sake but between it being Domingo who threw it, how I know Cash will point to this to keep selling us the same shit and not make any changes to how he constructs a roster, and how the A's are basically a triple A squad pretending to be a MLB squad the whole event becomes a blah that I can't even get remotely excited about

Really hate that an asshole like German is now forever in the history books Like it's cool to see a perfect game but what a garbage individual to be added to the list, it's just a black mark. Dude can eat shit, I'll recognize Galaraga before I recognize him. Like Ty Cobb or Pete Rose, those are guys you can look up to.

Other people being pieces of shit doesn't make German a good person in comparison, it just makes them all shit.

More to the point that the baseball recordbook is filled with assholes. German is a piece of garbage, but it's not like he sullies an immaculate list of boy scouts or anything. Like Jim Bunning pitched a perfect game.

Like Jim Bunning pitched a perfect game. Yeah, I have shitted on German plenty of times but let's not get on our soapboxes and act like MLB is this pure sport. Baseball always and will always be dirty as much as they try to act like it is the "good ole boys game" With that said, German can still kick rocks but he did an accomplishment not many people do so I can't take that away from him

Your 2023 MLB All-Star starters:
AMERICAN LEAGUE 1B: Yandy Diaz, Tampa Bay 2B: Marcus Semien, Texas 3B: Josh Jung, Texas SS: Corey Seager, Texas C: Jonah Heim, Texas OF: Randy Arozarena, Tampa Bay; Aaron Judge, New York; Mike Trout, Los Angeles DH: Shohei Ohtani, Los Angeles
NATIONAL LEAGUE 1B: Freddie Freeman, Los Angeles 2B: Luis Arraez, Miami 3B: Nolan Arenado, St. Louis SS: Orlando Arcia, Atlanta C: Sean Murphy, Atlanta OF: Ronald Acuna Jr., Atlanta; Mookie Betts, Los Angeles; Corbin Carroll, Arizona DH: J.D. Martinez, Los Angeles
Credit to the fans on this one, of the finalists they were presented with, they pretty much nailed them all. It should make for a highly-entertaining Mid-Summer Classic.

I loved watching the achievement live because I can barely remember seeing Wells and Cone do them when I was like 13-14 years old (I wasn't as big a sports fan back then). And I'm happy for the team because perfect games are still a team effort and Kyle Higashioka called a great game and there were some really good defensive plays that preserved it. Hell, I'm happy for Ryan Ruocco being able to call it. But I still don't like German as a person. And watch as he follows this out by jobbing out 10 runs again lol.

I am happy for Rucco as well. He seems patient in waiting his turn to be the PBP guy and I think he is better than Kay but Kay isn't going anywhere until he wants to retire Rucco should at least be getting more home games tho, don't give him the road games Kay don't want to show up to. But in this case it worked out and he posted that a friend of his from college who works for Oakland was also their calling the game so they got to enjoy the moment together

I remember watching him call spring training games when he was first starting out and his home run call was a real corny "GOOD. BYE. SIR!" lmao. He's so much better now. Though I think Kay is on vacation now because he hasn't even been on his radio show this week.

Kay is a busy man and should take more vacations Kay with Cone and O'Neill are good tandems but like on the field, Yankees could use some fresh blood every now and again in the booth. Beltran was ass but they could at least kept Maybin, he was getting better over time I assume they call Brett Gardner at some point

As a Dodgers fan I’m not exactly upset at the Padres struggling, but as a baseball fan it’s a bit confusing. On paper that team should mash but it just seems like they don’t click.
