Im proudly riding the bandwagon!

 

[Out of the Rafters at the Q]

All three homers they hit had show boaty bat flips.

Made the W that much more satisfying.

Oswaldo Cabrera's was, by far, the most egregious.

Mid game showboating always seems like a bad idea to me

I like bat flips...

If you don't want to see the opposition "bat flip".. don't leave pitches up and over the plate.. THEY GET HIT VERY HARD and FLY A LONG WAY..

If it's our guys.. the more the better..

..kind of a non-traditional/anti-old school take..

F him.

I am just a filthy casual baseball viewer but imo there aren’t nearly enough batflips or stare downs after strikeouts to make baseball interesting.

If you don’t want batflips or staredowns, don’t suck at baseball.

We got to get fans at the game to chant 'Os-car Gon-za-lez!' at the SpongeBob part.

I love Yankees fans’ tears.

Mad respect to those guys for the superstitious stuff. I am the guy in the middle for every Browns game.

So if Cal has a disaster start, does Plesac get some innings tonight? Civale is in cement as the starter tomorrow, right?

Great win. Still think they need to walk Aaron Judge through when you have a guy on 3rd w 2 out.

The Indians would have lost that game. The Guardians did not.

We won the two we were most expected to win. Sigh of relief. Now it gets tough. As we know well from 2017, the clinching game is the only one that matters. Have to get the big hit against Cole tonight when we have a chance. We failed to do that in Game 1. You don’t want to go back to NY and put the ball in Civale’s hand.

Enjoy the game. Go Guards.

If I was an MLB pitcher, I would do Frank the Tank guns after each K, followed by a LeBronesque dirt toss with a loud 'whoooooo' at the end. If I was a hitter on par with Bad Man Bader, or Ernie Clement, I would do a cartwheel across homeplate. This will possibly be the highlight of Baders career, he needs to savor every moment.

Anyone (CATS) remember Jimmy Piersall’s memorable 100th homer back in pre-historic days? It wasn’t a bat flip, but um… interesting. He ran the bases facing backwards!

Oh, I don't mind bat flips either. Oscar had a great one when he walked off the Rays.

But it just made it that much better when the Guardians came back and beat them.

Mid game showboating is asking for the karma train to come run you over, especially when you're playing a team that has a penchant for comeback victories.

Which he then followed up by shitting down his leg on defense in the 9th.
