[Unofficial 2017 World Series] Houston Astros vs. Los Angeles Dodgers

yeah. Darvish handled it with class. said something like "he made a mistake, we're all human. he'll learn from it."

lol i honestly don't understand how anyone can defend yuli in this situation though. it was pretty obvious to me... but i don't feel like it's that big of a deal either, but to each their own.

there's people that think he should be suspended though.. absolutely ludicrous, Dodgers fans are getting desperate.

 

I bet they know his name now.

 

dont be so quick to think you know

UPDATE: MLB will interview Gurriel and may suspend him for the gesture. Darvish called Gurriel's behavior "disrespectful" after the game

 

lol that's ****ing crazy they could do that.

anything they can do to help the Dodgers win I guess...

good thing Wood is a lefty though, Yuli wasn't hitting them well anyways if he does get suspended

 

Good call

 

How can they prove what Yuli was talking about?

 

for putting his hands to his eyes come on man

 

Uncle Charile needs to pitch the game of his life tomorrow, lets gooooo!

 

Do you think gurriel and Darvish were aware of this during the game?

 

They can't, but it doesn't matter anymore about intent, it's about public perception these days. Gotta make sure the squeaky wheel gets the oil.

 

Bud Selig is gone. So we'll be fine.

 

I hope Yuli starts to apologize but then rubs his nuts on the microphone.

Let's focus on baseball and not this TMZ horseshit please.

 

Great game.

If Yule gets suspended then the Red Sox don’t get to play in Boston anymore. Because racism.

I hope y’all think that’s joke, and remember me saying if you’re a tan white dude you’re gonna catch heat in Boston. They’re some kind of neon white.

 

They can't nothing going on here.

 

In this day and age of triggered snowflakes and safe spaces, anything is possible.

 

not exactly the smartest thing to do, especially with all that is going on and the touchy issues

 

Yuli should have denied denied denied. MLB would have a hard time proving racist undertones with those gestures even though we all know what it looked like.

 

Well that's just stupid. If "tipping pitches" means "throwing flat breaking balls and not locating for ****" then sure, he was tipping pitches.

I hope they sit Bellinger for the rest of the series.

As far as Gurriel goes, he ****ed up, he'll learn from it. He's newly here from a culture that's not nearly as attuned to racial offensiveness as we are in the States. I've been all around this world and some of the most racist stuff I've ever heard was in Latin America (and Boston/NY).

 

Other managers have continually gone to their bullpens regardless of how well their pitchers have been doing. Sometimes the best decisions are those not made.
