The 2023 Running Baseball Thread

This seems like a good time to tell you I wrote up a list of every person who's been the last batter of a World Series.

 

Even without Garcia, this is one hell of a lineup. Although that awful error helped break it open tonight.

 

Bochy is probably the most low-profile great manager ever. There are a lot of managers with bigger profiles who weren't half as good as he is. He is both a great tactitian and a great manager of people/the lockerroom on a day to day basis - which is a rare combo.

 

12 years too late. Congrats to the Rangers.

 

My senior class trip in 1993, we went to Dallas. Went to Six Flags and to a Rangers game in the evening.
I remember they played the A’s.
My first major league game was in Kansas City. It was against the Rangers. I got two autographs that day. Darryl Motley from the Royals and Pete O’Brien from the Rangers.

 

Amen.

Thank God for 2016.

 

Hooray, another franchise that didn't exist the last time Cleveland won the World Series wins the World Series since the last time Cleveland won the World Series.

 

Congrats to the Rangers.

3 1/2 months to pitchers and catchers.

There’s still one MLB franchise that has never even been to the World Series.

That franchise decided it didn’t have room for Corey Seager in its lineup.

And that is among many reasons why it’s been 46 years and counting without a World Series game for the Mariners.

 

Someone get Rosenthal and Duc off the field.
Good Grief.
