OFFICIAL 2017 MLB THREAD

[irul&ublo]

2 from the Sux. 2/3 from O's and Toronto. I'll take it

[BigDaddy]

Well, it is Boston

Admittedly, some bad history, and that shit at Fenway was beyond asinine. So embarrassed by those complete douche bags. Front page news across the country. WTF Boston???!

All I can say is, I've been to a ton of games and sat in the bleachers many times, but never saw anything like that. It's fun to banter with Yankee fans, etc., but getting racist is is so fucking low. Obviously we still have some trash that needs taking out. A very cool random guy I met while flying from Chicago today suggested that they publish their names and ban them from all major league parks. I agree. So ashamed.

What a fucking shitshow in Boston this week!

Now you got Baltimore's starter getting tossed after losing a fucking 77mph curveball softly into a Sox' back?

Yeah, things got a little out of control. Dude getting tossed tonight was a definite mistake, but they should have tossed the guy that drilled Mookie the other night, so I think it evens out.

They tossed a guy from the stands last night for using a slur against another fan, and that guy has to go explain himself to the hate crime division of the Boston PD. Might just take making an example out of a few of them to get this bullshit to stop.

Fan hit by stray bullet at Cards game.

Awesome! Is he more Kevin Maas or more Shane Spencer?

I'm not a Red Sox fan, but I could listen to Dave O'Brien and Eck every night

No joke: if you're a fan of baseball on the radio (I clearly am, or I wouldn't be saying this), you should check out a Cincinnati Reds broadcast with Marty Brennaman and "The Cowboy" Jeff Brantley one night.

I do a lot of road-trippin during MLB season and listen to a lot of games and while I'm always gonna tune into future Ford Frick winner Tom Hamilton and my Tribe, Marty and the Cowboy (previously Marty and Joe Knuxhall (youngest ever MLB player at 15) or Marty and his son Thom on Brantley's off nights) offer some of the best analysis and just good ol' fashioned back and forth I've ever heard in baseball.

Honestly aside from Votto and Arroyo I have no clue who the Reds have on their team these days but the broadcasts are still extremely entertaining.

MLB At Bat app FTW.

[ex-powderbroker]

Reds radio?

This is the aaron judge thread now, get it right.

[BmillsSkier]

I know the TGRz are a different place now, but I think we can branch out from solely Yanks-Sox banter.

I won't subject y'all to my analysis of the Bravos duo of Powell and Sutton.

Tom Hamilton has the best home run call in baseball. I will say that with no abandon.

[irul&ublo]

Yankees and Cubbies today

John Miller with the Giants is pretty good.

Adios pelota!

[Timberridge]

Wait, nobody likes John and Susan?

[irul&ublo]

Waldman blows.

[ex-powderbroker]

I prefer her (and anyone else) to Sterling. Actually, do you remember Al Trautwig? That guy was even worse. Amazing that in a metro area of 30M people they can't find anyone better to describe what the fuck is happening in a baseball game. I'd rather listen En Sap and pretend I can speak Spanish.

[BmillsSkier]

Hahahaha

[Supermoon]

Remy and Orsillo were the absolute best combo of all time.

Oh fucking yeah!!!!



2 out, 2 strike, walk off HR

[BigDaddy]

^Sit down, Jr... one game.

Wait, nobody likes John and Susan?

Only because I knew Yankee fans had to deal with them...

Amen... great, understated and lots of fun.

Hey Cubbies Fans...

I really couldn't believe when the Orioles let him go. So good. Mellifluous.

Also agreed. How could they let Don go? Just great. Nothing against O'Brien, he's a quality broadcaster but I really loved Remy-Orsillo.

edit: I just went down the rabbit hole again on Remy-Orsillo as I do from time to time. So fucking funny.

[iceman]

Been watching this crazy Sox-Twins game all afternoon, 9 runs so far in the ninth? Wow.

14 batters so far in this inning.
