2019 MLB World Series

[CAA Flagship]

Nobody in the poll has Nationals in 7. Interesting.

I didn't vote. I could go Nats in 7 for sh!ts & giggles.

Do it for giggles. We don't need your shits.

[CAA Flagship]

Yeah, except they both are pretty darn hot, and we only got to see them for a second and not well. Apparently one of the two does this practically daily.

And both are now banned.

HOUSTON (AP) — The two women who flashed their breasts from behind the backstop during Game 5 of the World Series have been banned from major league ballparks.

Major League Baseball sent the women a letter shortly after their escapade Sunday night.

Julia Rose and Lauren Summer identified themselves on social media. Popular on Instagram, they lifted their tops and exposed themselves as Houston Astros ace Gerrit Cole was set to pitch to Ryan Zimmerman of Washington in the seventh inning at Nationals Park.

The women were standing in the second row, slightly to the first base side behind the plate. Their stunt was seen live on Fox by a camera shooting from center field.

Cole stepped off the mound, but it's unclear whether he saw the women.

MLB says the ban from big league stadiums is indefinite.

"The fans who were involved in exposing themselves during Game 5 of the World Series violated the Nationals' fan code of conduct. As a result, they were removed from the stadium and are suspended indefinitely from attending an MLB ballpark or facility," MLB said.

So the other night, I was watching Game 5 when they showed Trump. There was some reaction from the crowd; nothing all that shocking. Some cheers, some boos.

Later, I saw on social media claims that Trump was booed audibly and lustily -- which isn't what I heard.

A friend of mine who was at the game told me that he thought he the boos were louder than the cheers, but he was perplexed by the reports that the booing was overwhelming.

So now WaPo runs a story explaining why people at home didn't hear the boos. In other words, people seem to be questioning the accuracy of the claims, made via social media, that Trump was booed mercilessly.

Were any of our Washington gang there? What actually happened? Is my friend right? BTW, he likes Trump, or at least dislikes Democrats more than he dislikes Trump, so he may not be objective either.

I only talked to one person who was there about that specifically and she said it was a lot of boos and a chant of "lock him up". For full disclosure she is an avid dem and Trump hater. I can ask others that I know where there.

Joe, Joe, Joe, don't question the media on this. JSO has definitively demonstrated that the MSM much like JSO himself is completely unbiased when discussing Trump.

I did find this video on the net. I have to admit my friend's description seems accurate: more boos than cheers, but hardly what is being spread on social media and news media.

What do you think? Seems to me that Trump is booed no worse than what would have happened if Obama had attended a football game in Texas.

One thing is for sure - Obama being booed at a major national sports event would get us all treated to another media wide call for a “national conversation on race”

Dear Lord. That first play at first wasn't even close and they called Turner out. Granted, it was an easy replay overrule, but it fuels Nats fan conspiracies.

The umps in this Series really are terrible. The Sunday home ump got the most grief, but the Saturday home ump was even worse.

[93henfan]

nvm

Got to have somebody to blame for the loss.

Of course Trump was booed in DC. All the rich bureaucrats live there. That is the home of the swamp.

National's keeping it interesting.

First time I have seen that call against Turner before.

Looks like a game 7 awaits.

Verlander improves to an unblemished 0-6 lifetime in World Series.

[Ivytalk]

Maybe they should play game 7 at a neutral site.

[bluehenbillk]

Looking forward to tonight!!

[93henfan]

But seriously, why is Verlander so pathetic in World Series? Do we have any ODU grade here who can explain?

OK Joe, I actually talked to more people I know who were at the game just to find out for you.

It seems it really might be partisan on how it's described.

First guy I talked to is a huge Lib and described the whole scene for me: Standing ovation for the military salute (done at all DC games, maybe everyone does it?) and then when Trump came on the board people were spitting mad and it was a torrential onslaught of boos. Every single fan was booing.

Next guy a Con said via text: "You could definitely tell there was booing, but some of the cheering drowned it out."

Next guy our token Lib in our text group: " The booing was quick and loud as was the "lock him up". It was the only good thing that happened on Sunday. It was your boys first trip outside the bubble, it did not go well."

Take it FWIW.

[89Hen]

BTW, the first guy mentioned above said somebody unfurled an "Impeach Him" banner down the right field line when this all went down.

Thanks. It is funny about people's thoughts on how bad the booing was correlates to their political outlook. Your conservative friend and my conservative friend both pretty much said the same thing -- more boos than cheers, but not an avalanche of boos. And the WaPo article mentions that the worst of it happened when FOX was still on commercial break, so those of us at home didn't get the full measure of the moment. That seems likely, since the in-stadium announcement did happen when the game was on commercial break.

BTW, is it possible our respective conservative friend is actually the same guy?

No surprise, this is the home of the swamp. Rich liberal bureaucrats buy the tickets,

He didn't lose that game yesterday. His bullpen did.

How so? He gave up three runs and the Astros scored two.
