Thought I'd share this:

https://www.mlb.com/news/featured/the-s ... ll-forever


It's an article on how Major League Baseball might look if the St. Louis Browns (now the Baltimore Orioles) had been able to move to Los Angeles for the 1942 season as they were planning to do until Pearl Harbor interfered.
Economic:-8.12 Social:-7.59 Moral Rules:5 Moral Order:-5
Muravyets: Maineiacs, you are brilliant, too! I stand in delighted awe.
Sane Outcasts:When your best case scenario is five kilometers of nuclear contamination, you know someone fucked up.
Geniasis: Christian values are incompatible with Conservative ideals. I cannot both follow the teachings of Christ and be a Republican. Therefore, I choose to not be a Republican.
Galloism: If someone will build a wall around Donald Trump, I'll pay for it.

Yanks have never turned more than one triple play in a season before, and within the span of a month they've tied the record for most in a season.

How, how do this team scores 7 in the first inning against a struggling Ohtani and manage to play fine despite TWO rain delays, only to cock it up and buckle in the ninth. Chapman should never have been on that mound, especially as he's been struggling a lot since the sticky ban, and you keep him on the mound in the bases loaded when he can't even find the strike zone? Luetge was not much better, you didn't even have him warm up enough and he blew it just as much. Was there seriously no one else in the pen, I know Britton was injured and all but fuck me sideways you could have had anyone else?

Because of course the Yankees have to blow the sweep to the goddamn Astros AGAIN, and of course it's a walk off from the stat padding cheater that is Altuve. Who was like nowhere during this series and suddenly pulls a fucking home run out of his ass and a win to make himself look good.
