Don't throw a meatball down the middle on a 3-0 count, and you won't see that happen again.

Problem solved.



Mets will do one better.

Blow 8 run lead? Easy.


Fuck the unwritten rules, you play until the games over.

u grew up playing soccer, so you just dont understand the game.



the game is out of reach, its a regular season game, not game 5 of the world series.

You just take the pitch, plain and simple. If the pitcher misses... u get an rbi, if he throws a strike... u have 2 more chances to drive in runs..

its really simple to understand this kids. Its about keeping the game moving along... also sportsmanship. He doesnt gain respect padding stats on that pitch.


Expect bean ball , perhaps at his head, in the future.

I just had visions of the Mets bullpen reading this. The Mets bullpen will treart an 8 run lead. Like it's a abomination...

Didn't realize sportsmanship was taking plays off because you're ahead or behind

Only in baseball I guess

I for sure would never teach that

I cannot believe I missed this thread.
these same LOSERS the DAY BEFORE (Aug 16th) vs Rockies were losing by 7 in the eighth
they scored 3 and then had the bases loaded and could've tied it with a HR.
UNWRITTEN rules my butt. this isn't the same baseball game as it was 10 yrs ago.

Oh my! Now what do the naysayers have to say? Should we have just waved our white flags and gone home?
