Obviously, I’m thrilled with the homer, but it also had a nice incidental side effect of getting John Smoltz to shut the fuck up. I don’t think he’s said a word since the Stanton homer.

I'm starting to think the MLB juiced the ball for this game

37

u/bears2267 Chicago Cubs 17d ago

They put corn in the middle

32

u/Flamethrower753 New York Yankees 17d ago

It's probably the same ball they used in London

u/TheDangiestSlad New York Yankees 17d ago

Judge and Stanton don't exactly need juice

Gardner on the other hand...

Gardner on the other hand...

hey that's Mr. "batting .350 in August" to you

u/TheDangiestSlad New York Yankees 17d ago

Gardy and Wade are having insane months, i'm having a great time as a big fan of the, uh, "underperforming" members of the team

Wade was batting .700 in August before this game, I am all aboard the Wade train

u/MattO2000 New York Yankees 17d ago

Tbf that ball seemed crush off the bat and was a wall scraper

60

u/takespicturesofpants New York Yankees 17d ago

I think it was off the end of the bat

41

u/MattO2000 New York Yankees 17d ago

Yeah plus I think the audio at this field tripped me up a bit

27

u/person7849 Cincinnati Reds 17d ago

I know, literally every ball that’s hit sounds like a home run

That was off the end of his bat a bit, but it's Stanton so it doesn't matter

My initial thought too. Off the bat that thing looked like it was going to the moon. I couldn’t believe it was actually catchable.

I mean gallo's first inning fly out looks like it should have gone farther

u/CaptMarvel23 Los Angeles Dodgers 17d ago

Just curious what are the dimensions? Looks short all around but maybe it's because of the outfield.

8

u/AgustDrunk Chicago White Sox 16d ago

they tried to replicate Old Comiskey Park and, according to the FOX broadcast, the dimensions they went with were:

  • 335’ foul lines
  • 380’ alleys
  • 400’ center

If the MLB thinks juiced balls make the game more exciting then why would they have gotten rid of them in the first place?

Only way it could have been better is if Mariano Rivera had come out of the cornfield in the 9th and gotten the save

It’s true, the whole dynamic of at bats were swinging the other way because strikes were taking an 0-2 count to a 1-1 count, or a 2-0 count.

I'm honestly past the phase of being mad at Boone. He's a smoothbrain with the IQ of a grapefruit. He is who he is and nothing about that will change.

What's inexcusable is that Hal has effectively absolved him of any official blame for this season and pinned this train wreck of a season solely on the players... as if the players write the lineups, choose the starters, manage the bullpen, etc...
