@KoleMusgrove23 No one gives two fucks about the Hank Aaron award. Even if your point makes sense. At the end of their careers no one is going to give ANY credence whatsoever to Hank Aaron award winners. It won’t be a feather in your cap for HOF consideration. It literally means nothing sadly.
@GarysheffieldJr I agree … been watching since 1986-ish … totally agree. And in my lifetime …. Greatest postseason ever by a pitcher …I wasn’t alive for Gibson so I can understand if he’s #1
@BRWalkoff@askkaitt It’s not even the greatest in baseball although I had to search far and wide to find a better game. I think this game from Ohtani ranks 2nd behind Rick Wise who threw a no-hitter AND hit two homers.
@MagicJohnson Only 3 games come Close. Reggie Jackson homers on 3 consecutive pitches (4); Steve Carlton 9 IP CG Win, 4 ER, 3BB, 8 Ks in the 1978 NLCS vs. LAD, hits 2-4 w/3-run HR and RBI single (3); Bob Gibson 9 IP CG, 2 ER, 3BB, 10K, 1-4 w solo HR in 1967 WS game 7. (2). Ohtani’s game (1)
@DanConn10078428@JomboyMedia For sure Dan. Gibson, Reggie and Carlton each had some things over Ohtani. Importance (especially Gibson World Series game 7). Strength of Opponents, and importance. Ohtani better game but level of importance is not close. Agree

@PitchingNinja The Dodgers are stacked. They are using the old Yankee strategy of stars everywhere to power their way to the World Series. The Dodgers shop on Rodeo Drive. The Yanks are shopping at discount malls in Secaucus.

@ChrisKirschner Yep and keep making every other owner look like an idea. All those stars could’ve easily been resigned by their original teams but all those owners decide ls to be cheap and in turn they created a monster known as the LA Dodgers
