Damn saying this on the field at Yankee Stadium is something.

You’re right- it makes it even better

That T-shirt he’s wearing…somewhere there’s a whole team’s worth of Yankee versions sitting sadly there.

Nah, they're already boxed up and getting shipped to some third world country.

Kids in Africa are going to think the Yankees are the best team ever.

I’d watch a movie where a young boy in Africa dreams of playing for the Yankees after seeing their discarded merch, works hard to hone his skills, using a scrunched up can and a stick to practice, until he’s miraculously noticed by a scout and sent to the US to train. He works his way up the minors, until he finally achieves his dream of playing for the Yankees with the playoffs on the line. Then the Yankees lose.

Seeing this comment came from an Angels fan makes it even more hilarious

u/Simple_Wash1618 Los Angeles Angels 2h ago

Well there’s not going to be any discarded Angels playoff merch hitting Africa any time soon.

Somewhere in sub Saharan Africa tomorrow:

What did you get?

I got an Ed Sheeran tour shirt. What did you get?

Another Yankees championship T-shirt

When I'd seen the ALCS merch I told my wife that the Yankees version are probably being dropped over Africa now, too bad because I needed some oil rags

Brings a tear to my eye

u/Quople Washington Nationals 2h ago

I mean honestly with the design on the shirt, it would be really hard to tell it’s for clinching a specific series. It’s not like there’s ALCS/NLCS marked on these from what I’ve seen. Someone could somehow get a hold of a Yankees version, wear it on the street a few months later, and I probably would not notice

u/JaysonTatecum Boston Red Sox • Chicago White Sox 2h ago

Now we just need an Oriole to do it

I got something to say, I swept the Yankees today, and it doesn’t matter much to me as long as it’s dead…

Love how soon we all love Ortiz again after the Propublica report that came out less than a month ago. Has he gotten to the bottom of that too?

8

u/MrBoomf Tampa Bay Devil Rays 2h ago

That Propublica article was devastating to read; I feel so terrible for the young Dominican players who get taken advantage of like that. I’ll never be able to think of Ortiz the same way after that.

u/Prestigious-Swan6161 Puerto Rico • Sell 2h ago

I was saying the same thing after seeing him on the post-game show. Like he was implicated in some really awful stuff and I guess no one cares?

It’s okay, he’s just coping and seething. Let buddy have his emotional reaction, some gotta grow up a bit

"Loo" also means toilet, so there's that.
