[MLB] 2023 Major League Baseball Season (MLB Thread)

[DarkAudit]

And then there were none. The last team never to have thrown a no-hitter has done it.

Irony - I had on a Padres cap today.

 

[DarkAudit]

My whole life had been a lie...

40 Strikeouts.
No walks.

Corbin Burnes. Remember the name.

How long has WHIP been a stat?

 

[jwhouk]

Since the 1980's, when Rotisserie League Baseball took off?

Mad Bum just no-hit the Braves... in seven innings.

Doesn't count, then.

Screw Elias Bureau. Not his fault the Braves pitching staff couldn’t keep Arizona off the board.

It's MLB's fault for meddling with the primal forces of nature and artificially shortening double-header games.

Nooooooo...

Say it ain’t so, Vin: Farmer John Dodger Dogs are no more

You can still get a Dodger Dog at Dodger Stadium, but it won't be from Farmer John, which did not renew its contract with the club after the 2019 season.

That's gotta be the most upsetting thing since Miller Park was renamed A******* F***** Field.

I genuinely forgot the new name for a second and was like "Asshole Fucker Field??"

Tigers’ Miguel Cabrera is one hit away from Babe Ruth: ‘That’s awesome. I’ve been blessed.’

Cabrera homered on Tuesday in his second game back from injury.

We a baseball town now.

Angels are expected to release Albert Pujols any time now. And no, ESPN, he's definitely NOT the "best first baseman ever."

 

[jwhouk]

Sorry, but unless they’ve changed the grave marker from LOU GEHRIG to ALBERT PUJOLS, he aint the greatest first baseman ever.

 

[blotsfan]

I have tickets to Major League Baseball in Buffalo, NY. What a world.

 

[BErt]

We found him. The greatest first baseman in the league

PITTSBURGH (NL) - Placed Will Craig (1B) on 15-day Disabled List (brain failure).

 

[DarkAudit]

Tree is already on it.

 

[BErt]

...WTF did I just watch????

i’ve watched it 40 times and I’ll have to get back to you with an answer

 

[HCGLNS]

How, what, why? A run down between 1st and home? Whaaaat?

 

[jwhouk]

The like is for Tree. Not for the Pirates.

 

[Dave]

Even in little league we say, "Just step on the base. There's 2 outs. It's a force."

 

[BErt]

I’m obsessed with this play, I’ve literally watched it 50 times. So many things happened it’s like *everyone* forgot how to play. Will Craig obviously and deservedly gets the most blame here but:
- 3rd baseman throws a routine grounder off 1st base, pulling Craig off the bag
- Baez erroneously assumes he can stall and have the run count
- Craig doesn’t touch 1st, chases Baez
- Craig *THROWS THE BALL TO THE CATCHER* after trapping Baez at home
- Catcher attempts to tag runner from third instead of Baez
- Baez *stands there and signals safe* even though any tag to him negates the run
- 2nd baseman doesn’t cover 1st as all of this is happening.

Just beautiful, beautiful chaos

There aren't enough desks in the multiverse to headdesk over this play.

F the McCarver Rule.

I just want you to know I’m not picking on you and your disagrees are valid

Too bad Hanser Alberto wasn’t playing 2nd.

As a sort-of Father's Day gift, I bought tickets for my dad, brother, and me to the Giants game versus the Dodgers on July 29th. Lower level, just past the Giants dugout, about right between the infield and outfield.

That's a great gift! What a good son!

 

[DarkAudit]

Of course we're gonna want pics from the day. Including the insane ballpark noms they've got on offer this season.

 

[blotsfan]

Going to my first post-covid sporting event today. Blue Jays-Astros. Hopefully security lets me bring my garbage can.
