#baseballs are forever

[psqqa]

why does literally all baseball shit read like “as a rule, the shortstop handles all shallow tab fours, as well as any tab twos a left whipper manages to hit off a low dragball. occasionally, however, when a game is past the sixth and a team is full up the gully on a 3-2 count, they’ll try to jack-knife the bases to allow the lead runner to dust a corner on three, in which case the shortstop will have to be ready to fly down the hatch and snap to home instead.”

i’ve watched 157 episodes of this shit and i still don’t know what the fuck people are talking about half the time

bro listen to me. i am very good at twisting shit around in my head to make things somehow my fault, but convincing yourself that your team captain underperforming during an important game because he academy awarded his way out of telling anyone about having a cracked fucking rib or whatever is a failure on your part is some next level shit

nooooooo kawakami don’t talk down on yourself like that!!!!!! :(:(:(

[psqqa]

something has definitely gotten lost in translation or like cultural nuance because i really can’t see what’s so egregious about saying “dude if you wanna quit, then quit, i’m not going to force you to do something you don’t want to do”

yeah i got my sister to watch a bunch of daiya no ace episodes with me but the real victory here is that she agrees with me that the designated hitter rule is bullshit

i do like it when the pitchers do something really impressive because then we get that nice little french horn bit. and i always love a good french horn bit.
