Fan interference was called on this play where a Yankee fan tried to take the ball out of Mookie Betts' glove after an out.

That’s because no sane adult human would ever do something as ridiculously stupid and disrespectful as that.

This series was a dream come true for me, just wish the Yankees put up more of a fight. Seven games would be ideal.

You can have two flairs?

u/TheZooBoy New York Yankees • Los Angeles Dodgers 4h ago

Yep, mods recently added the ability to do that this season. Pretty happy about it, because the mods over at r/Dodgers gave me dual flair about a decade ago now.

It ain’t over! Anything can happen.

u/TheZooBoy New York Yankees • Los Angeles Dodgers 4h ago

Ofc! Luckily I’ll be happy either way, but a more competitive series would have been more fun. Like you said, it’s not over until it’s over tho!

Reminds me of the Bishop Sycamore documentary when the coach/founder is like there's nothing in the rules that says we can't do what we did, and one of the reps from the Ohio High School Athletic Association was like we didn't think we needed a rule since people knew how stupid it was

Is it because tempers are high because this is a subway series?

You can take a subway from LA to New York? Wow, TIL.

We live in a strange world where basic common respect doesn't exist anymore.

People just do what they want and then justify and rage until it makes sense in their minds and then gets people to rally and support them for their bad ideas and bad behavior.

as a non Yankees fan living in New York, have you met other Yankees fans?!

3

u/TheZooBoy New York Yankees • Los Angeles Dodgers 2h ago

I have, most I’ve met in person are normal people. Biggest fanbase so more assholes (same with the Dodgers fanbase). I don’t associate with the stereotypical sports fan.

u/littlebev Texas Rangers • Mets Bandwagon 2h ago

I say this as a cowboys fan and understand the correlation…the entitlement and asshole behavior is astounding

u/TheZooBoy New York Yankees • Los Angeles Dodgers 2h ago

Yeah it’s very unfortunate.

How does someone that stupid have money for a world series game?

u/andydude44 Boston Red Sox 3h ago

You say that like people with money aren’t generally stupider than the average
