Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the only pitcher in MLB history to earn the win in 5 straight postseason appearances while not allowing more than 1 run or 1 walk in any of them.
All 5 have come on the road.
@JohnnyGiunta_@lexiebu@BiggestBig21044 I had no problem with either of them celebrating. I mean, it’s game 7 of the World Series. But to act like they’re the same is blatantly wrong, when one moment is bigger and obviously more impressive than the other
I didn’t think Hartenstein was playable in this series — but if he’s gonna be allowed to maul and grab Wemby like this on every play he should play 48 minutes. This is hilarious.
Victor Wembanyama’s agent met with Rob Pelinka last summer to learn how Kobe Bryant mentally prepared himself, per @ramonashelburne.
“One summer Bryant had become obsessed with studying how great white sharks hunt and attack their prey. So it became Pelinka's job to find him the best place in the world to do that -- which is apparently Guadalupe, an island 150 miles off the coast of Baja, Mexico, where you can go cage diving in the crystal-clear waters.
Bryant would later write in The Players' Tribune in 2017 that his study of great whites helped him defend Allen Iverson.”
Kenny Beecham says Jimmy Butler is one of the best individual playoff performers of our lifetime:
“Butler has 7/10 best playoff performances in Heat history. Reminder, the Heat had f*cking LeBron for 4 years and Wade for 15. One of the best individual playoff performers of our lifetime and because he doesn’t have a ring, there’s a % of NBA fans that won’t respect his tenure with the Miami Heat. When in reality is, Jimmy Butler is a f*cking Dawg!”
No matter how it ended, you can NEVER erase what 22 did wearing that Heat Jersey. 🫡
“Bringing in James Harden to win a championship is like electing Donald Trump to fix your country.”
