“The same company that made napalm, agent orange, hydrogen bombs, and breast implants. Are working with MLB to make a new baseball.” That was a fucking flashbang of a sentence.
And rhymes with POW
Monsanto baby
Edit: Dow chemicals apparently
It’s also…completely irrelevant? It seems like it’s trying to be sensationalistic for no reason. DOW chemicals has made THOUSANDS of things over the years, I don’t see what cherry picking supposedly “controversial” ones has to do with baseball. They are a chemical company. They make chemicals. MLB wants a chemical. I don’t get why you would even mention all that unless you had no idea who DOW was and just randomly clicked on their wikipedia page and looked for controversies.
Losing 7-5 while throwing a no hitter is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard😂
well I mean it wasn’t really a “no-hitter” considering the ball was doing all of the hitting lmao
Loses in no hitters have even happened in the mlb, and they weren’t too long ago
@StiebFan37 One of my favorite pieces of Astros trivia is that the first time that the franchise (then known as the Colt .45’s) made significant history was becoming the first team in league history to lose a no-hitter in a regulation 9-inning game back in 1964. The “Dome” opened up the next year and then that became what Houston baseball was known for, but for a brief moment in time it was all about the confusion of how you can possibly lose a no-hitter😂
GD can u drone on ANY longer about the same thing in the same nasaly voice with edits every 8s so there is no natural pause in what you are saying? I’m trying to clean my garage and near the end of this i felt like my mother was nagging me.
King of Juco tested the alcohol vs rosin thing and in a 1 minute video he proved that the alcohol made the ball stickier. Scherzer got ejected and banned for 10 games for doing exactly what the umpires told him to do. It’s ridiculous
Bauer did it before him.
Rosin softened with alcohol is exceptionally sticky, I use a mixture of rosin and alcohol for soldering and it works very well for that, but it makes a hell of a mess when you spill it
Or King of Juco and Scherzer were both lying. I guess it just depends on which group of total strangers you choose to believe: ones who would make money from cheating or ones who want their sport to be fair.
@Briansgate but it’s legal to use what Bauer uses 😂
Just guessing, MLB doesn’t want to use the Japanese/Korean balls because then they don’t control them. They want to be able to change the formulation of the sticky stuff so they can play with spin rates, walks, strikeouts, etc. without letting anyone else know in the middle of the season.
Damn it you’re right. They could easily use the Japanese balls but you’re right, they want to fuck with the balls depending on how they think the season is going. Man the MLB seriously is that sleazy.
I kind of feel like there’s a huge conflict of interest problem with MLB manufacturing the balls for that reason, it should probably be illegal, because they can manipulate results.
There’s more to it, MLB owns a significant part of rawlings responsible to make the baseballs. The Japanese/Korean balls are made by different companies (I think the japanese ball is a Mizuno)
@Bobby Gets Bannedcrazy all the shit they do with the balls every year. It’s always some shady nonsense
@Marc Johnand they will. Hate all the rule changes specifically designed to change outcomes. That’s what bothers me the most. Artificially manipulating the game
The fact that this keeps happening and the MLB has not realized why it’s happening is crazy to me.
whats crazy is pitchers are cheating so much that it almost seems like baseball exists
nah bro baseball never existed
Fo sho
Alas, we can only dream.
😑
ok slow down there buddy
Being consistent is hard for MLB
Admittedly, it seems to be hard for most of modern humanity
Yeah it’s harder then most sports
Being right is even harder for them bums
Honestly this just proves bauer was right
I agree, Mr Trevor Bauer knew this the whole time.
Yeah he was right. It’s not an easy problem though. And unfortunately for him, it kinda seems like he’s not a very good pitcher without a lot of sticky stuff, going by his last few starts in Japan.
@Bo J. Bro, he got banned for so long from professional play. He was a great pitcher without sticky stuff, what’s hurt him is over a year of not playing and dealing with an insane amount of personal stress from a BS lawsuit
@CharlesFreck Like my brother always says, “Sometimes the f**king you get ain’t worth the f**king you get.”
@jx14aby Ain’t that the truth
I’m ok with pitchers cheating as long as it benefits my favorite team
(Go Astros)
🤣🤣
@The Texans Are Not Real pitchers or players??? (jk i forgive the astros)
Ofc the astros
Lol
The Trash Panda no-hitter reminds me of the White Sox vs. Detroit game where the only runs were scored due to wild pitches. The last one being in extra innings and directly into the umpires face.. 😶😅
As a White Sox fan, I’m oddly proud of that game. 😂
@Twig as a fellow Sox fan, I gotta say that was truly one of the games of all time
What’s that pfp doing
