A helluva baseball player. What a beast.

 

[S. H. Frog]

oooh. Two dongs

 

[Looch]

He‘s a monster. Still, he really ought to drop that throat slashing gesture.

 

[jon abbey]

oooh. Two dongs

Prom night.

 

[mauidano]

The Braves should just walk him now.

 

[patinorange]

what's up with that? Seems unnecessary.

 

[mauidano]

Yeah, not a good look.

 

[canderson]

Love the fans mocking the Braves

 

[simplicio]

I get that it's 7-1, but you're not going to advance to third on that?

 

[Ale Xander]

Kind of surprised we didn’t make a trade with the Braves with Paxton
Their rotation seems shallow

 

[mauidano]

Nola is straight up mowing…

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Atlanta isn’t looking very fearsome right now. I guess the Phillies got in their heads last postseason and are still there.

Charlie Morton (finger inflammation) was sorely missed in this game.

That said, the Phillies have several bats that have shown up in October... and this Braves core kind of hasn't. The 2021 WS win was full of trade deadline acquisitions to fill holes like Acuna's torn ACL, etc. It's interesting

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Nola is straight up mowing…

... pricks DOWN!

And... he's done.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Phillies radio team says Harper and others showed up wearing Deion/Colorado shirts today, apparently in reference to something Arcia said

 

[simplicio]

Surprised they aren't giving him the last out there.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Damn. Could have been 2-0 if not for stupid base-runnning. (Edit: clearly I'm watching Hou/Min)

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Damn. Could have been 2-0 if not for stupid base-runnning.

Or 0-0

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Thompson no doubt hopes Nola has a number of appearances still to come in the next few weeks.

 

[mauidano]

Walk Harper.

 

[Dogman]

What's the Harper/Arcia beef?

 

[S. H. Frog]

What's the Harper/Arcia beef?

Near as I can tell, Arcia said some "good job, good effort" shit about Harper getting doubled off the other day.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Go Twins

What's the Harper/Arcia beef?

I can't make heads or tails of it, because the reporting is vague, but it sounds like Arcia was mocking Harper in the locker room after the game, and there were some reporters around. Unclear whether he was saying it knowing it would be reported or they overheard it and reported it, which seem like slightly different things.

But then it gets weird -- apparently, Harper wore a Coach Prime Buffaloes shirt to the game, which was somehow responsive to what Arcia had said in a way that I haven't seen well explained.

My work seems to block embedded tweets so sorry if I missed a better answer.

 

[Dogman]

Nope, all explanations help. Thanks all.

Although I don't understand the Coach Prime shirt unless it's an homage to Prime's first news conference after CO's first win this year.

The Phillies radio guys suggest it plays off the "they made it personal" stuff

 

[Remagellan]

You know, this kid is OK.

 

[NorthwestSoxGuy]

Wow, the Phils are absolutely demolishing the Braves!

I personally dislike the Phillies, but this is one of the times where I'll root for them, especially since the Braves haven't changed their name yet.

 

[bosox188]

How many times is Castellanos going to interrupt something with a home run? It's uncanny.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

SMASH ANOTHER ONE THE FUCK ON OUT OF HERE, BRYCEY!

 

[JOBU]

They have picnic areas around the park. That is definitely not a "eat in your seat" food item, unless you hate yourself and the people around you, because that's going all over. Most definitely treat the onion rings like a side dish and remove from the burger before eating. (Two of them at least.)

Absolutely correct take. This needs to be eaten standing up. Well away from women and children

 

[Ale Xander]

Phillies should maybe save some Hrs for game 4

 

[NorthwestSoxGuy]

I think the Braves should just give up and go home. They're not World Series-built this year like the Phillies are.

(Not being serious by the way)

 

[Remagellan]

Trea!

 

[moonshotmanny]

Is that Jim Joyce in those Geico commercials with Ken Griffey Jr?

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Is that Jim Joyce in those Geico commercials with Ken Griffey Jr?

I had that same thought but not sure.

 

[derekson]

The Twins really need to get at least another run soon if not tie the game.

 

[Ale Xander]

Neris? Really?

Dusty is loyal

 

[Ale Xander]

Didn’t expect that

 

[Ale Xander]

The Twins really need to get at least another run soon if not tie the game.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

The Twins really need to get at least another run soon if not tie the game.

Need anything else?

 

[Looch]

I don’t ever remember seeing a batter not realize he just got ball four before now

 

[derekson]

Neris isn't looking especially sharp.

 

[Ale Xander]

Neris lol

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Shoes.

 

[shawnrbu]

Ball 3!

 

[simplicio]

Shoes.

Not a strike though.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Give me robo umps, please.

 

[The Gray Eagle]

That was ball 4, lousy call costs the Twins.

 

[derekson]

BOILED. ASS.

 

[Section15Box113]

Twins sure got jobbed there.
