GDT: 2024 WS: Los Angeles Dodgers vs. New York Yankees

[FiveTacos]

36 years ago I was out at an event with school friends, and got back just in time to catch the start of the bottom of the 9th of game 1 and saw the Gibson HR.

Last night I was at my kids' school event, and got back at the start of the bottom of the 9th inning.

And both walkoffs happened at 8.37 pm.

Total deja vu. A little spooky.

Watching the Dodgers makes me just feel bad for Mike Trout, what an absolutely brutally wasted career

MLB guys have more freedom than most other sports, if they really want to they can get to a good situation. He didn't have to sign for 12 years. He could have been a free agent back in 2020.

and if he cared about winning he would have gone somewhere else

Yeah the Trout thing is weird... I guess he really likes Anaheim?

Sort of like Harper he left a bunch of money on the table for Philly.

Of course, it’s just crazy they couldn’t put a decent team together with two of the best players of all time in Trout and Ohtani

It's just insane that they had prime Trout and were winning like 70 games lol

Harper leaves Washington and the Nationals, who couldn't get over the hump over the years with him, all of a sudden go on a cinderella run to a World Series title.

Just bad timing with Harper, even though he got the Phillies to the 2022 World Series, just came up short against Houston.
