Death From Above Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Alomar was my favourite player as a kid but as far as I'm concerned he's dead to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinit Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 This story would be alot easier to digest with a bit of context and transparency. That being said, I hope that any sex pests and/or assaulters tm are treated the same way by MLB moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 For the last 2 weeks or so, Nationals fans have been trying to figure out why FP Santagelo has been off and on in the broadcast booth. Well we are starting to see why. He has pulled from today's game against the Yankees. I have already considered him the Larry Michael of the Nationals because of his homerism. Well apparently maybe more like than we thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 To be fair - the keyword that the tweet kinda glosses over is "blowout" The Twins were pissy about it also since Mercedes swung on 3-0 in the 9th with the Sox up 15-4 It was also against a position player So it is one of those "unwritten rules" things 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Never apologize for hitting a homer, Yermin. Never. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiztor Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 it's a sport. you play to win. swing on any pitch you want. is there a mercy rule or blowout rule? no? then play hard to the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Well La Russa doubled down and made sure that his team hates him by stating he was glad the Twins threw at Yermin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2001, the Seattle Mariners, a team that won 116 games, were up 12-0 in the 5th and then 14-2 in the 7th on the Cleveland Indians. They lost 15-14. Screw you Tony LaRussa, you sanctimonious, hypocritical, gasbag. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerMark Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I could be wrong but I think that Mercedes home run was maybe the slowest recorded pitch sent back for a home run, which is impressive in its own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Fuck the score, you throw a Major League Hitter *THAT* pitch, I don't care position player or not, I'd punish a hitter for NOT smoking it, bat flip, stare it down, all that. LaRussa can fuck off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyWhioux Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 "running up the score" only applies when the team getting blown out gives up. There's no running out the clock in baseball. It is always mathematically possible to have an infinity run rally if you hit well enough. Did the Twins start having their off-day starting pitchers pinch hit, too? No? They kept trying to hit? Then they haven't given up and the White Sox are under no obligation to stop competing. Besides, everybody should be ready to swing 3-0 because everybody knows that basically unless the ball literally bounces the ump is going to call it a strike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
