World Baseball Classic 2017

Hospital S(t)an Javier

@jay_jaffe
Drew Butera, apparently trying to win more playing time in KC by running over Sal Perez at home plate

RIP Miller Time

Jones, Rodney, Benoit, Miller: the Leyland Legacy

rare to see one catcher collide with another, let alone one on the same team! that's gonna be awkward

play-by-play guy on that US-DR game was awful

"MAYBE THIS WAKES UP THE DOMINICANS!"

Yeah, I had to mute that shit.

cuba v japan on tuesday!

watched last 2 innings of Japan victory while on work phone meeting. which i am still on now.

The Golden Plantain!

sometimes a banana is just a banana

as when Yadi hits, throws and pitch-frames for PR last night

Jansen should catch.

Jim Kaat, still with the 'productive outs' shtick at age 78

machado just walked, and patiently held the bat in his hand as he began to walk up the first base line so that the batboy could grab it out of his hands instead of off of the ground. i don't get to watch machado that much stuff like that makes me like him a lot. who will stand up for the bat boys? manny machado will, if no one else

how did that telecast of a 3-0 game run 4:17?

Cutch tossed for strike complaint

wasn't expecting to see this rate of ejections

cutch otm

USA won the electoral vote on that Crawford slide at third

(temporarily)

adam jones with a fantastic play to rob a machado HR

the screaming blonde woman is a hilarious aspect of that adam jones catch highlight

saw the catch, missed the blonde

Wlad the Impaler

That was some amazing dumbshit baserunning in the 1st.

Anyone else's mlb.tv not loading for jackshit?

mine's alright

Mine's fine.

just before that pitch, the one where stanton hit into a double play, some doof in the audience yelled out "HOME RUN!" that doof is my dad. not actually my dad, but that is what my dad would do

i've heard your dad yelling 'get in the hole!' at countless golf tournaments

dear Jim Kaat,

please stfu

nice to see that McCutch swing again.

kim kaat sure does know a lot about the ways of the Japanese and has spent a lot of time thinking about how they are different than the American ways

jim kaat

lol kim kaat

illegal stream playing wonderwall during commercial breaks right after the japan home run is the absolute worst. mlb.tv i blame you for this.

Haha, same RENEGADE STREAM here. This YouTube flotsom in place of commercials is driving me nuts.

I did laugh at the Thomas the Train remix one.

PR vs USA is a dream final.

I can't root for any team Hosmer plays for.

"Wonderwall" sounds a lot better than that goddamn band going most of the night in Dodger Stadium.

Jim Kaat also sees Aaron as the US home run king "in my estimation." Take your estimation to the early-bird diner dinner.

i fell asleep reading that

kinda surprised that Real Americans haven't been calling out all the italian-americans who played for italy or jewish americans who played for israel etc. as traitors

https://twitter.com/nycguidovoice/status/802982411474636800 i guess

Posey resting. Huge mistake. He is Buster Posey.

stroman was pretty sassy out there

oh god did leyland actually make arenado bunt

well that is going to be hard to come back from.

VHS, can you make the Giants thread this year?

(i also really hope you are voting in the Talking Heads poll)

Sure, and yes, I chose my #1 today.

Congrats americans of the board, it's well deserved after a difficult year and I'd ... wait is everyone sleeping already?

i was rooting for PR

i assumed everyone else was too

i was rooting for the netherlands

honkbal 4eva

i was sleeping
