OFFICIAL MLB 2022 THREAD

Peak summer
Sunday of a holiday weekend, Dodgers looking for sweep of the Padres, day game baseball (410 pm EST,) Prime Rib in smoker, Clayton Kershaw on the mound in the Ravine....

Kershaw threw a beauty 7 scoreless
Mookie was back and looked great
Somehow we lost

Peak baseball

I’ll blame this one on the offense, but I’m not really a fan of Kimbrel closing games. It’s time to try someone else there.

Well, went south side tonight.

Before the game I had the morning to get my tourist on.



Took a boat ride


And learned a lot about architecture.


Ate Chicago style lasagna


Then got this thing. Whatever it is. Honestly didn’t know Konerko was that big of a deal to the other Sox


Rain gave way to a nice evening


La Sorda should just get ejected from the dugout cause it takes too long for him to shuffle to the plate. The ump must have been asking himself if it was elder abuse to chuck him.



Saw a triple play! (not pictured)

And had a Joe Kelly sighting. He gave up four runs in the tenth and that was that.


On a slightly more serious note, I was in Texas right after Uvalde, and here in Chicago today made the second moment of silence I’ve been a part of in six weeks. Pretty messed up.

Happy Merica Day

Comerica Park tonight for Tigers/Guards.



This ticket was 1/3 the price of my nose-bleed Wrigley ticket and I’m row 8. Hi Jose!!

[BmillsSkier]

Reds/Bravos tonight.

Had to try Skyline Chili

Not awful but a one and done for me.

Unfortunately it followed me to my hotel room. This is what passes for modern here? Not sure.

Why is Ohio?

Nice night for a game though. Really wish Votto was on a better team.

An ATL homer confirms its like 2/3rds Braves fans

A Skyline Chili 4 Way (spaghetti/chili/onions/cheese) and Coney all the way (onions/chili/mustard) is top of the mountain. Well done. Add Skyline hot sauce liberally for that next day feeling.

Looks like maybe y’all were at 21c ArtHotel? Their modern art collection (across their 3 locations) is pretty world renowned (read: Walton Family $$$)

Spaghetti chili with a metric shit ton of cheese?! Wow. I'm completely intrigued. Nearly speechless lol.

It. Is. So. Fucking. Good.

looked like a nice night in cleveland

Ufda. We got the shutout and last one. (Thank God)

With Dansby Swanson facing Free Agency this next year and being represented by Excel, the Atlanta management team needs to learn a lesson. https://thespun.com/more/mlb/dansby-...b-world-reacts

Such a bizarre situation.

Hey Josey! Hope you got your new JRam shirt on Supermoon!

(Just checked the score. Oh FFS)

[ex-powderbroker]

skyline and goldstar are trash, missed an opportunity for a waffle house i'd say.

There are quite a few of those in the crowd here tonight, actually.

The score may be my fault. I’m staying at the MGM Grand near the stadium and put $5 on the Guards at the sportsbook.

Gold Star is imitation garbage. Skyline or GTFO.

Waffle House is for ATL.



On a serious note, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the 75th anniversary of Hall of Famer, Cleveland World Series Champion, and incredible human, Larry Doby breaking into the bigs, a mere 3 months behind Jackie, and the first in the AL.

Some fantastic moments at the Jake with Larry Jr. and family in attendance on Sunday.

This piece I read was worth your while.

Yankees vs Sux starts today.

Yankees vs Sux starts today.

ESPN has let us know for the past two weeks.

[Thaleia]

Jays almost got swept by the A's. Pitching has sort of fallen apart. Bats aren't doing much either.

[ex-powderbroker]

Ohtani, good at baseball.

Ohtani, good at baseball.

I feel like every day you see the “this has never happened before” around him.

MLBTV blackout rant here.

Between ESPN, Fox, FS1, Peacock, AppleTV and YoutubeTV its a wonder any bothers with MLBTV.

This will be my last year sending them money so they can turn around and sell those games to the Streamers and then black me out.

MOTHA FUKKING WORD!

Also, Mookie is back, xBHs, HRS, walk off RBIs..., flashing the leather in RF. Good to see him back being Mookie.

Speaking of which, I heard that triple play you saw this week was the first ever 8-4 triple play in the history of MLB.

That’s pretty cool.

Yeah. In the moment I thought it was 8-6, but ended up being 8-5 which was a first.

Very cool in real life even though it cost the White Sox the game probably.

Yeah, but so are (almost) Sherzer and deGrom. Good luck getting past them

I just looked at it. Very cool.

Devers is a beast.

[alias_rice]

Kimbrel cannot be the closer anymore. Every outing is painful.

[Timberridge]

Sale's washed up Sox fans.

And David Ortiz did steroids.

And David Ortiz did steroids.

Not sure where that came from. Ortiz never failed a test, unlike your buddy A Rod.
