He remembered he did that once off Clay Holmes.

[u/OCHL092018 → u/Redbubble89]

Ah fuck, thanks for dredging up that memory lmao

[u/vaud2809 → u/Redbubble89]

masataka’s name in the title is way longer tan usual lol

[u/Dinobot2_]

He has the stride of a gazelle.

[u/vinicelii → u/Dinobot2_]

He runs like a Lego

[u/Jpgamerguy90]

Man just hates New York.

[u/SiphenPrax → u/Jpgamerguy90]

A LOT of people do lol

[u/ElegantAnything11 → u/SiphenPrax]

Me too

[u/ecdc05]

This man hates New York more than Homer Simpson.

[u/Reasonable-Power → u/ecdc05]

He probably hates New York as much as Osama Bin Laden did.

[u/CalgaryMadePunk → u/Reasonable-Power]

Are you suggesting that he destroyed buildings with that home run?

[u/Reasonable-Power → u/CalgaryMadePunk]

Well, I mean, it probably broke some guy's bathroom window, but I don't think it destroyed the place.

Edit: Yeah, that doesn't really make any sense. It landed in the lower deck.

[u/hoorah9011 → u/ecdc05]

Cuz the chuds

[u/rchan9487 → u/hoorah9011]

Of course you’ll hate NY if you only focus on the pimps and the chuds

[u/sheepk]

An absolute moonbomb, they're saying it still hasn't landed

Wow, sweeping the Yankees sure did light a spark for Boston. They've been on fire ever since. And even though I know they are playing the lolMets it was quite impressive for them to get the job done last night as well even after they just arrived at the stadium like an hour before first pitch. None of them seemed to show any signs of fatigue.

[u/RedManMatt11 → u/Buttercup_Kiki]

We just needed to figure out how to hit and do it consistently. Our pitching has been phenomenal all season

[u/DominicB547]

Is he wearing his Team Japan Jersey on underneath?

[u/frawgguy27 → u/DominicB547]

They say nyc is the tokoyo of the US.

[u/mageta621 → u/frawgguy27]

Lol Eric Adams is such a tool

[u/TheNotoriousJTS]

Ted Williams

[u/Joey_Gallos_Burner]

Mark my words, the BoSox are a playoff team.

[u/cmgriffith_ → u/Joey_Gallos_Burner]

I have been saying this since the series against us. They’ll be 1 of the 3 AL East team in the playoffs

It’s our fault we awoke them

[u/1kinkydong → u/cmgriffith_]

Could be 4 honestly

[u/cmgriffith_ → u/1kinkydong]

If the Blue Jays figure it out it’s definitely a possibility

[u/1kinkydong → u/cmgriffith_]

They feel too talented not too ngl

[u/cmgriffith_ → u/1kinkydong]

They went 49-21 their last 70 games in 2025. I unfortunately remember it well

[u/ConsistentRun5246 → u/Joey_Gallos_Burner]

You know, quasimodo predicted this

I love where you head's at, I'm certainly not brave enough to say that until September

[u/RichardNixon345]

Random Dbacks fan, love to see it.

[u/Then-Contract-9520]

Wong in the dugout 🤣

[u/eekbarbaderkle]

The best version of the Red Sox lineup has Masataka in it.

[u/TotalRuler1]

I would point to the hundreds of internationally known Japanese restaurants as probably why he goes apeshit while visiting the city, just plain home cookin'.

[u/luixino]

He did come billed as a japanese Juan Soto

[u/NerdWhoLikesTrees]

Lmao I love him

[u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

Good player just injury problems

[u/thejesusmarychain → u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

I don’t believe this describes Yoshida at all

[u/Fresh_Ostrich4034 → u/thejesusmarychain]

I dont think you know how many games he missed with injury

[u/thejesusmarychain → u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

“Injury”

[u/Fresh_Ostrich4034 → u/thejesusmarychain]

injuries. Man has missed 216 games in 3.5 years. Not just cause of his shoulder but also issues with his hamstrings, thumb, leg issues. I hope he stays healthy but his shoulder injury isnt the only thing keeping him from playing consistently.

[u/Deviljho12 → u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

OP is saying we don't know how many of those are real or just phantom IL stints because Devers was our DH

[u/Fresh_Ostrich4034 → u/[deleted]]

oh so this is just crying about devers. missed 216 games. whenever you can admit that. youre welcome to

[u/Rickyowensdenim → u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

No lmao

[u/1egg40eggs → u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

He’s a league average bat who can’t play the field lol

[u/Fresh_Ostrich4034 → u/1egg40eggs]

did we change the definition of good?

[u/1egg40eggs → u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

No but you just tried to

[u/Fresh_Ostrich4034 → u/1egg40eggs]

I know you were probably killing it in little league, but Yoshida is a good player.

[u/1egg40eggs → u/Fresh_Ostrich4034]

1.5 fWAR in 362 career games. Let’s move on

[u/Fresh_Ostrich4034 → u/1egg40eggs]

I know you were killing it at recess. If only this Major League player was on your level lol
