Worst fans in baseball. Hands down.

Yankees in 10 over ‘stros! Rubber game tomorrow bitches!

you're going to need that game, not likely the yanks will get past the Astros again on the postseason; you're going to need the advantage of home field to improve your odds.

Houston has the best starting staff in the bigs, by far. They should win, but their relief staff is uneven, closer Giles has an era pushing 5.

Day baseball in Boston today!

Pretty sure it's a three way tie with the Phillies and Sox.

Naw....it’s one thing the chowds excel at. That and hurling racial slurs

The Phillies and Sox fanbases at least know baseball a bit. The Yankees fans lustily booed Stanton at his first home game and think Sterling et al. are good, rather than embarrassing. Better to be a dick than an ignorant dick.

[irul&ublo]

He got booed because the game before he struck out five times, and other than the opening game he was in a huge slump. Maybe the Yankee fans pay more attention than you think

Maybe if they paid attention they would know that he's an all-or-nothing streaky power hitter who strikes out a lot? He's been in the big leagues a long time. It's like booing Nolan Ryan because he walked some dudes. You're a fucking retard if that wasn't what you expected.

Also: Stanton is very fragile and has seldom played a full season. You and your fellow morons can get ready to boo when the inevitable 6 week DL stint happens.

If a team has fans that don't care about superstars performing poorly, I don't think you're talking about a professional team in America.

ETA: any team with recent success has fans that don't know shit about the sport. I bet their are a lot of fans in Houston that don't have a clue that their uniforms used to be the coolest or that the stadium had a different name.

furthermore, yankee fans booed the shit out of giuliani on his birthday. we can put that in the greatest fans on earth column.

Fair, that's a point in their favor.

I'm looking forward to watching the Angels this week ...

[Brock Landers]

Yankees fans booed Jeter in 2004. Started the season 0-25 and got booed. Derek Jeter! Booed!! Worst fans in sports! Sad!

Probably not so much last week...

I always LOL at this.

To be fair, that was probably about the roids.

The thing about irul and his mongoloid brethren is how fucking predictable they are. The team they root for signs a guy who ks 190 times per 162 gp over his lengthy career, and they boo him in his first home game because he strikes out. It's a goddamned miracle that they get out of bed in the morning and manage to dress themselves.

My 3 year old understands that her elderly dog sometimes shits in the house and that it is par for the course of elderly dog ownership. The child is 3 and the dog has never led the National League in house-shitting.

[iceman]

They selling out those club seats yet?

[ex-powderbroker]

ok, i guess the sox should have thought twice about signing an older outfielder with eroding skills... that happened to be black. that was ugly as a pink sox hat!

i don’t know what team is pure enough to start grandstanding about yankee fans, but it sure as shit neither of the other old east coast teams.

Oh yeah.

[ex-powderbroker]

I didn't realize that Gleyber Torres is the youngest player to homer in 4 straight games in the AL. It's kind of meaningless, but at the same time the ceiling looks pretty high for that kid.

[Supermoon]

Max Scherzer came in to pinch hit in the 14th inning last night, on his off day, gets a single up the middle and scores the winning run for the Nats on a triple the next batter. He looked like a kid in tee ball rounding the bases. Pretty wild finish.

[The AD]

Mariners are on a tear, and now lead the AL West. During today's radio broadcast it was mentioned that this is the first time the Ms have been in sole possession of the division lead after June 1st since 2003. Wow. Odds are they'll choke, but it sure has been enjoyable so far!
