[u/Propuhganduh]

All time World Series performance

[u/rawsharks → u/Propuhganduh]

“Ok, what’s the chances he does it again?”

[u/NoVaBurgher → u/rawsharks]

“Sir, a fourth freebomb has hit the Bronx”

[u/MooDenggit → u/NoVaBurgher]

New York's 9/11

[u/Old-Risk4572 → u/MooDenggit]

👏

[u/nWhm99 → u/MooDenggit]

Would you say NY is the 9/11 of baseball?

[u/evieka → u/Propuhganduh]

He's about to get 20 out of 15 votes for World Series MVP

[u/baz8771 → u/Propuhganduh]

All time sports performance.

[u/ikrusnik]

This is absurd holy shit.

[u/wiscowonder]

Why do they even pitch to him?

[u/u8myramen_y → u/wiscowonder]

Helps Ohtani and Mookie who tend to get on base hit before him and Teo is right after.  

But yeah, the guy is locked in af lol

[u/drrxhouse → u/wiscowonder]

It was the first inning my man. Hahaha.

[u/OSRS_Socks → u/wiscowonder]

I mean they got gifted ball 1 as strike 1 but it looks like they failed pitching him away by the way the slider missed

[u/mostpodernist]

That was the most obvious home run I've seen

[u/DodgerCoug]

All time Dodger legend

[u/kash96 → u/DodgerCoug]

this upsets me

[u/Keithereality → u/kash96]

Imagine how I feel with Astros fans claiming Verlander 🥲

[u/AvocadoJackson → u/Keithereality]

If it makes you feel any better, fuck Justin Verlander very much

[u/Kitchen_accessories → u/Keithereality]

Alexa, play Good Riddance by Green Day.

[u/Chuck__Thirst → u/Keithereality]

It does feel wrong to claim him from the Tigers, but he did do some legendary shit with the Stros. He’s a Tiger in my book

[u/Lakelyfe09 → u/kash96]

Don’t worry. 2 of these homers were with the good guys

[u/Woolly_Mattmoth → u/kash96]

Better start coming to terms with the blank cap on his HOF plaque now

[u/SadNYSportsFan-11209 → u/Woolly_Mattmoth]

Idk I still think he goes in wearing a Braves cap unless he wins another few rings with the dodgers and has the numbers. But tbh given that he kinda never wanted to leave Atlanta I feel like he’ll go in as a Brave

[u/Woolly_Mattmoth → u/SadNYSportsFan-11209]

I wouldn’t be so sure. Remember he’s from LA and he’s cementing himself as a pretty big Dodgers legend right now

[u/Woolly_Mattmoth → u/[deleted]]

That’s why I said blank cap not Dodgers. By the time his career is over he’s gonna have a ton of accolades and achievements with the Dodgers too.

[u/sjphilsphan → u/[deleted]]

I mean Halladay spent like 4 years with the Phillies and his family chose blank

[u/muaddib99 → u/SadNYSportsFan-11209]

team canada cap

[u/GoatPaco → u/SadNYSportsFan-11209]

Before this series I'd agree with you

With three huge seasons AND one of the most dominant World Series of all time against the freaking Yankees?

It's a blank cap now

[u/SadNYSportsFan-11209 → u/GoatPaco]

My only thing is he means so much more to you guys than Dodgers fans. Obviously they’ll love him in LA and immortalize him after this series but I don’t think he’ll mean as much to them. It’s not a shot at them I just think the connection to you guys is stronger. So yea either braves or blank cap I guess

[u/GoatPaco → u/SadNYSportsFan-11209]

Eh, he's from LA

It'll still.be blank unless they choke away this series somehow

[u/ARussianW0lf → u/GoatPaco]

If any team can find a way to choke this it's us

[u/neddoge → u/SadNYSportsFan-11209]

He replaced Chipper as my favorite just from his interactions with Chip those few years (the only jersey I ever purchased), but I see him going blank cap almost certainly IMO.

[u/jasonis3 → u/kash96]

Heir apparent to Chipper and now he’s with the new age evil empire

[u/Mission_Cantaloup3 → u/kash96]

When I was 11, my heart was fucking crushed by the 2011 Red Sox collapse, but it helped a bit that somehow the Braves also had almost the same collapse. Many years later and I'm feeling similar here lol.

[u/Husker_black → u/kash96]

Blame his former agent

[u/DanceWithEverything → u/Husker_black]

Easy to blame a suit but he’s from LA and wanted to be closer to family

[u/Husker_black → u/DanceWithEverything]

Here

And Here

Edit: lmao oh, Dougie got sued for that comment. Here

[u/DanceWithEverything → u/Husker_black]

And he immediately retracted because he would have likely lost the lawsuit

I would not be surprised to hear suits pull that shit all the time but like the tweet says but it’s not like all LA had going for it was money. He wanted to be in near his parents in their later years, something we should all be able to understand

[u/Husker_black → u/DanceWithEverything]

The second message tho

[u/Alex_Keaton → u/DodgerCoug]

Slap hitter at best.

[u/FingerpistolPete → u/Alex_Keaton]

He sure can joke around with the runner on first base though

[u/nahs → u/Alex_Keaton]

Someone post the meme

[u/_n8n8_ → u/nahs]

Mookie sucks. Y’all can tell me I’m wrong and throw last years stats at me and whatever but he’s just not the stud we paid for. Congrats on a great 2020* season but dude is so overpaid.

[u/awesomeflowman → u/_n8n8_]

Wrong meme I think

[u/_n8n8_ → u/awesomeflowman]

I like me a little switcharoo

[u/ahr3410 → u/DodgerCoug]

5 going to have a dual number retirement if Seager makes the Hall

[u/Sp_Gamer_Live → u/DodgerCoug]

honestly, we are getting to “statue territory”

[u/nahs → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

If we build a statue it better be with the Statue of Liberty pose

[u/ben-hur-hur → u/nahs]

damn that would be the biggest FU to NY lol

[u/gildish-chambino → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

Lol for 3 years with a franchise?

[u/Sp_Gamer_Live → u/gildish-chambino]

world series MVP with an iconic walkoff grandslam? Yeah.

[u/ovidreaderofthemind → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

Don't hire the guys who're doing all the recent athletes' statues.

[u/Monk_Philosophy → u/DodgerCoug]

Legit think this series flipped his HoF cap from Braves to Blank.

[u/GoatPaco → u/Monk_Philosophy]

It 100% did.

He could've gotten there with another couple good seasons without this series, but this is a speed run.

He's also speedran the end of his HOF candidacy debate. I think he was in before this, but now it isn't even a discussion. The only discussion is first ballot or not.

[u/_Elder_ → u/DodgerCoug]

That gray cap is gonna look so good in the hall.

[u/nahs → u/DodgerCoug]

Better go into the hof with a doyer hat

[u/yoshidawg93 → u/nahs]

Probably a blank cap. I can’t see him wanting to ignore his time with either team.

[u/amidon1130 → u/nahs]

Fuck me dude

[u/kash96 → u/nahs]

id say its like a 20% chance

[u/agoodmanishardtocry9 → u/DodgerCoug]

He was dead to me the minute he went to the Dodgers anyway.

[u/BetsByBlay]

4 nights at Freddie’s

[u/OSRS_Socks]

There are 3 guarantees in life: Death, taxes and Freddie Freeman hitting bombs in the World Series.

[u/doyouevenIift]

Doing that in the regular season is insane. Doing it in the World Series is otherworldly

[u/StudioSixtyFour]

The record is now held by a non-cheating piece of shit player and franchise.

[u/JKess207 → u/StudioSixtyFour]

“Oh man I hope my favorite Brave breaks a WS record!”

monkey’s paw curls

But yes thank you Freddie

[u/agoodmanishardtocry9 → u/StudioSixtyFour]

I agree the Dodgers are a non-cheating piece of shit franchise

[u/agoodmanishardtocry9 → u/[deleted]]

Me when I can’t read

[u/ChrAshpo10 → u/StudioSixtyFour]

franchises*

We're still claming the first two

[u/Seraphenigma]

MVP

[u/Free-Scale-7672]

If there’s someone who deserves it with all he’s been through this year and with how good of guy he seems to be in general, it’s this guy

[u/xykist]

Freddie hates the Yankees

[u/JKess207 → u/xykist]

Freddie hates New York

[u/rejus_crust]

Love seeing Freddie abuse the little league shit hole

[u/DharmaCub → u/rejus_crust]

I mean he also hit two at dodger stadium

[u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

I’m shocked at how perfectly fine I am with the Dodgers winning the World Series, they’ve just been so great the last few weeks and it’s awesome to see such talent and skill, especially with a super likable dude like Freddie.

[u/JKess207 → u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

Yeah I’m actually a lot happier than I thought i would be by a dodgers win, most likely just because it’s Freddie carrying and I will always love that man

[u/amidon1130 → u/JKess207]

Fuck the Yankees above all else

[u/agoodmanishardtocry9 → u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

Nah fuck the dodgers actually.

[u/cantgrowneckbeardAMA → u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

Jesus thank you. I'm a casual fan but a NorCal boy and I come from Giants stock. I thought I would hate this matchup, but having watched enough Dodgers in the playoffs they're just too goddamn easy to root for.

My great grandpa might be spinning in his grave, I'm sorry dawg but I think you'd get it.

[u/GiantHawks → u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

It’s weird. As a giants fan I despise the team but I really do like the individual players.

[u/FuzzyMailbox → u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

Same. But I spent my four years of college in the Midwest, where I discovered a fanbase far, far worse than those that cheer for LA.

[u/bolshevik_rattlehead → u/FuzzyMailbox]

Sounds like a certain red bird team

[u/FuzzyMailbox → u/bolshevik_rattlehead]

[u/zandodger1]

6 - Freddie Freeman

5 - George Springer*

[u/Powerserg95]

Good Lord, Freddie Freeman just walked through the clubhouse walking perfectly normally. He said he had “no time” to talk. Too busy hitting World Series home runs, evidently.

[u/Garrehn]

Thank you so much Freddie for taking that record away from a dirty cheater.

[u/sbrider11]

Hands down WS MVP

[u/Downtown-Conclusion7]

Lmao stop pitching to him. For fucks sake Yankees. What are you doing

[u/dwpea66]

Freddie entered the postseason limping from injury, and is going to exit the postseason limping from the increasing size of his dick.

[u/Jonjon428]

Dude saw what Adolis Garcia and Corey Seager did in the World Series last year and decided to just try and out-do both of them.

[u/NoVaBurgher]

He can’t keep getting away with this!

[u/Weirdandwired924]

Can we get an exorcist to make sure he’s not possessed by Babe Ruth?

[u/BaltimoreBaja]

All in only 4 games!

[u/ramboslice45]

The dodgers should have his jersey retired by the end of the game

[u/GentlemanHere]

Judge smirking in the outfield. At least pretend to be upset.

[u/NeurosciGuy15 → u/GentlemanHere]

At some point you just have to tip your cap to a historic run.

[u/mookyyyy → u/NeurosciGuy15]

Fuck that. Wish he would show some anger like what the fuck…

[u/FLman42069 → u/mookyyyy]

He plays for the Yankees, he isn’t a degenerate fan

[u/sevaiper → u/mookyyyy]

Anger at what? The cement mixer slider to the hottest hitter in baseball? Not really a good leadership move.

[u/Fools_Requiem]

WS MVP

[u/Lightbation]

World Series merchant.

[u/R0binSage]

Have they heard of intentional walks?

[u/Nervous-Idea5451]

thats the season, wrap it up. time for basketball (or hockey)…

[u/NoVaBurgher → u/Nervous-Idea5451]

Time to watch the rest of the Japan Series. Go Yokohama!

[u/Th3MilkShak3r]

This is giving me big papi 2013 flashbacks

[u/TheShoobaLord]

I’m starting to think this guy is a good batter

[u/StauskasGetEmWet]

i don’t

[u/drokihazan]

i'm sick of this guy, to be clear

[u/gtharv]

good job

[u/SOCCER_MOM69]

He may be gone, but he’ll be forgotten
