xzmattzx Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I want to see Ray's brother-in-law cross the field right in front of the batter during a pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemack8 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 That was terrible, seeing the Yankees come all the way back just to get walked off in the bottom of the 9th Must have really hurt all those Lakers and Cowboys fans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shades 73 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Saw the highlights , great game but in my opinion which is by far the minority view it was a big fail by MLB not playing on the actual field and building a new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawkins 20 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I caught bits and pieces of the game and it looked great. Hopefully MLB just lets this event stand on its own and we don't get 4 or 5 spin-off games every year like the NHL does with the Winter Classic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where the NHL screwed up, was have multiple outdoor games in a season now. Not just the one. Hell, I think they are planning one for down here in Raleigh. Sounds like they plan on going with the once a year/different teams option which I'm ultimately cool with. What I didn't want to see is exactly what you alluded to with the NHL... multiple games/locations every season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about a severely overrated movie. Depends how old you were when it came out. For me I was 13 so I could relate to the kids since I was a kid and played baseball after school and all summer long. So it has great nastagila for me. Do I go looking for it to watch? No but, if it is on while flipping through channels I still enjoy some parts of that movie.

dawkins4prez Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Manfred looking at expanding to 32. If they do that I really hope they reorganize the divisions back to how it used to be like: 4 divisions of 8 teams. There is way, way too much intra division games right now, we don't actually need 18 games of Guardians/Royals. 12 x7 = 84 division games, 6x8 = 48 intra division games, 3x8=24 interleague v.s. counterpart division (east v east alternating home/away evry year), 2x3= 6 interleague opposite divison (east v west 1 series home/away determined by set rotation or by weighted schedule). Playoffs would be nice and simple with 2 division winners and 4 wild cards per league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montreal would probably be placed in the AL East, to give Toronto a natural rival. The other team would go to the NL. Would they 8 4-team divisions, like the NFL? Or 4 8-team divisions, making it look like the old MLB? I think 8-team divisions with division winners getting a bye, and the 2nd and 3rd best teams in the division playing each other (with HFA for the second-best team, of course) for the right to play the division winner, makes a lot of sense. My divisions: NL East Philadelphia New York Mets Atlanta Miami Washington Pittsburgh Cincinnati Nashville or Charlotte NL West Los Angeles Dodgers San Francisco San Diego Colorado Arizona Chicago Cubs Milwaukee St. Louis AL East Montreal Toronto Boston New York Yankees Baltimore Tampa Bay Cleveland Detroit AL West Seattle Oakland/Las Vegas Los Angeles Angels Houston Texas Kansas City Minnesota Chicago White Sox It would not be ideal for teams in the western Great Lakes/Mississippi Valley to be in the West divisions, but at least they are bunched up with each other pretty well. Everyone east of Lake Michigan is in an East division, and everyone west of Lake Michigan is in a West division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
