Major League Baseball: 2024 Season

[Fezzik]

I'm very nervous. I'm very scared of Ohtani. Fingers crossed.

(Also I only today learned that Jazz Chisholm is a GB player - I actually have one of our own to cheer. Truly a World Series!)

Thirty teams played their tails off to make the postseason and prove to be the better teams in MLB. Twelve succeeded. The teams started eliminating each other. And now... two teams remain with one of them becoming World Series Champions. Will it be the New York Yankees or the Los Angeles Dodgers hoisting the Commissioners Trophy and winning the World Series? Find out starting tonight in Rancho Cucamonga, CA!

Congratulations to the eventual 2024 World Series Champions!

I hate this game sometimes.
Stayed up till nearly 5am for that heartbreak.

Freddie Freeman is an absolute legend though. We should’ve signed him.

It would’ve been better not reaching the World Series for another 15 years, rather than getting there and playing like this.

The Yankees truly suck.

The AL has been a step below the NL this year.

The Dodgers are showing how you properly run a big market franchise. Hopefully the Yankees top brass are paying attention but I doubt it, they probably think getting to the WS shows they are doing things right. Incredible that they can have a $310 million payroll, with hardly any major injuries, and have a roster this bad. So top heavy it's ridiculous.

As for Judge, it will be hilarious when he gets the MVP after this. 196/303/430 with 86 strikeouts in 56 playoff games, over 7 separate years. It's not a small sample size, he's Mr May, a flat track bully feasting on the weak pitching during the regular season. What a shame he didn't take the Giants money a couple of years back.

A very good summation of the Yankees ineptitude

Yankees' letdown World Series showing against Dodgers has become a playoff tradition for would-be MLB titans

New York is just one loss away from being swept out of the postseason

Bad take. Also, the Yankees were poorly constructed going into this season. While I believe they would have been in better shape had the Mets won, I don't think they had a chance against the NL outright.

I agree with this. The Yankees are fundamentally flawed. That said they should have won game 1. Boone should not have put in a pitcher who hasn't pitched since August. As long as Cashman is gm the Yankees will not win

Yankee fans trying everything to keep their team in the game. Including interfering with a foul ball catch. Probably not the best idea.

Ball was in the stands. Ok it was in Mookie’s glove at the time but still, finders keepers.
