@JeffPassan There is a definite feel of increased excitement and anticipation for 2026. Young stars, ABS and an increased love of the game. It’s too bad that we are on the cusp of a work stoppage after this year which may take us three steps back from where we are today. Here’s hoping #MLB
@MLFootball Stop it. It’s a one game final. Anything can happen in one game. A bad call, a pitcher who is lights out, a bounce. That’s baseball. Just be happy we got to see a great game.
@BNightengale The only tournament I could find that stipulates two teams will not face each other until the finals, even though the original draw shows US VS Japan semi. Tournament loses credibility on that.
@Mike_Ferrin can you explain how a “major tournament” sets a clause in the draw that two teams cannot play each other until the final? I cannot think of another tournament that does this. It’s a joke.
@SNJeffBlair The WBC is set up for a US Japan final. These teams should be playing a semi final except the Canada US game moved up a day to accommodate this. Can’t think of another “major event” doing this. the US doesn’t win their pool and still get the perks that Canada should have.
@StevePhillipsGM Steve the number of scoops at first base is misleading.
It’s like saying a player who hits 20 home runs in 600 at bats has more power than a player who hits 10 in 100 AB’s
How about percentage of scoops made based on total attempts.
