Exciting and close game one so far.

I got drunk yesterday and bet $200 that the series will go to 7 games. This legalized mobile betting will be my financial ruin. So far though since it became legal I have won 4 of 5 wagers I've placed, not counting this current one and am up several hundred dollars.

 

[RumblyTumbly]

That got tense in the 7th inning.

Good start to the World Series! Lets see how the Astros respond in Game 2.

Your wish is granted. We'll have our game 7.

Oh! That’s A Baseball!!

Fucking STOKED!!!! Not just for the payout, but I really wanna see how this series ends!

I'm rooting for the nationals now because I always like an underdog, but this has been an exciting run the last 6 games and I just wanna see the finish.

Less than 20 minutes til first pitch, ah yeah here we go.

Also how crazy is it that the away team has won all 6 games so far? That's just uncanny.

 

[Zaragoza]

If Osuna was taken back to the pen, we could have won the game, fuck you.

 

[Alto]

God fucking dammit. 'Stros got swamped again and lost it all.

 

[Zaragoza]

Juan Soto is a fucking asshole too, can't believe we lost to that faggot.

 

[RumblyTumbly]

What a World Series!

All road victories, game 7, winners had to comeback late to win it....all great shit!

 

[Pope of Degeneracy]

Bryce Harper must be fuming right now

Kurt Suzuki is now one of my favorite baseball players. RA! For Kurt Suzuki!

WASHINGTON — Nationals catcher Kurt Suzuki donned a "Make America Great Again" hat on stage during the team's visit to the White House on Monday to celebrate its World Series title.

President Donald Trump called Suzuki up to the podium and the 36-year-old backstop put on the red hat that has been the trademark of Trump and his supporters since he jumped into politics in 2015.

Suzuki played 85 games for the Nationals in the regular season, posting an .809 OPS with 17 homers and 63 RBI. He started 10 games in the postseason, going 3-for-30 with a home run.

The Nationals won the first World Series in franchise history — and they did it without Bryce Harper.

Back in March, the MLB star left Washington and agreed to a record-breaking, 13-year $330 million deal with the Philadelphia Phillies.

During his introductory press conference with his new team, Harper accidentally flubbed his words and said he wanted to bring a title to D.C.

On March 2, Bryce Harper said that he wanted to bring a title to D.C.

Twitter didn't waste any time calling out Harper as soon as the Nationals lifted the World Series trophy.

Some love for JPB sounds nice.

Some love for JPB sounds nice.

I find it funny that the BayStars used to be called the Whales.

Heres hoping the Orix Buffaloes do better this year than 2019 and the race to the bottom with the Swallows.

How do you feel about the SoftBank Hawks?

 

[Stasi]

How do you feel about the SoftBank Hawks?

Personally indifferent but am pretty impressed at their win. If I had to put money on anyone beating the Giants I would have said the Tigers but well done to the Hawks.

Also they are disliked by the neutrals in Japan but I don't mind the Giants. When I went to see them stadium was packed out and the fans were great so I had a blast. Would recommend for anyone visiting Tokyo.

Look forward to MLB starting up too. I've not watched baseball since about 2005 until last year. MLB TV give you a free game a day to watch as long as you an account so I got me some comfy Sunday night baseball without having to pay anything. Hope they do same for 2020.

The PR damage control from Houston after being blatantly caught cheating is amazing in how bad it is. Especially since they have apparently appointed Carlos Correa, graduate of the Puerto Rico Baseball Academy, as their lead PR guy. His arguments are:
>yes, our MVP in 2017 cheated, there is video evidence of him cheating, but he asked us to not cheat so much so he deserves the MVP
>yes we cheated in 2017, but we're talented so we still deserved the title
>we only cheated in 2017 (then the reporter said "didn't the report said you guys cheated in 2018 too"), ok we cheated in 2018 too but not the same way
Then they brought out Justin Verlander, arguably their most high-profile player (he's the pasty white guy from Kate Upton's nude leaks if you don't watch baseball), and all he had to say was
>I'm sad that other players lost respect for us because of the cheating scandal
And the oddest part is that Houston fans, and only Houston fans, are eating it up. Dozens of obese mexicans/whites tweeting about how their team did nothing wrong and it's all a LA/NY witch hunt. Is there something in the water there that makes people retarded? Their entire team was caught red-handed, blatantly and flagrantly breaking the rules, to win their only title. And they're just defending it. Weird shit.
