Click timestamps to jump to that momentWe got an awesome little storyline in
game six of this World Series. Bregman's
up in the first inning. The game is tied
at one. Outside off speed outside 200.
Bregman loves his fast balls. Jumps on a
middle. Terrible two- pitch from
Strawburg. Home run to take the lead.
Does he bat flip? Does he bat toss?
Nope. No pin wheels. He holds on to the
sucker. Brings it all the way to the
first base. Coach says, "Here, coach,
you take this." Coaches says, "I don't
want your [ __ ] bat. We got bat boys,
dude. Give me a high five. Don't treat
me like I'm your servant. Breman says,
"Sorry, I thought it'd be funny." Alta
goes "Yikes."
I don't know if that one's that cool or
that good. Later on in the game, top
five, the game is tied again. Juan Sodto
is up and he he's he's dialed down the
shuffle a little bit. See, he takes the
ball there. He just goes with some booty
shakes and some rhythm. No shuffling
because, you know, he was he was
shuffling a bit too much. Oh, now he's
in a 20 count. Little scoots down,
little kick. Wants to shuffle more.
Itching for the shuffle. doesn't get it
though. Two-0 pitch. Does he swing big
here? Verlander gives him the fast ball.
It's high. He wanted it. Doesn't swing
or doesn't get it. All right. 2-1.
They're going to go inside. Sodto loves
what he sees here. Starts shuffling.
Starts getting so cocky. Yep. Yep. Love
it. Give me that one again. 3-1 count.
Give me that one. And turns to the
catcher and says, "Yeah, be prepared.
Bomb." Probably not what he said, but
now he gets the 3-1. He's gonna get the
same pitch he just got. And watch
this [ __ ] Statcast about to lie to you.
Bam.
That's a bomb. And did he bat flip? Did
he bat drop? Nope. He carries the bat
the entire way as well and drops it
right before getting to the coach. He
was like, "Okay, I'll take it. I know
the game we're playing, but you dropped
it before you got to me." So it was
like, "I still got bat drop a little
bit. Come on." I mean, you can hate that
Bragman did this. You can hate that
Sodto did it. But the pettiness, the
storyline, the funness of it, it's
entertainment at its highest form. I
absolutely love
