Pure class!! This is what fans will remember about this ridiculous gesture.. Darvish’s amazing composure and forgiveness when most would retaliate. What a guy. This alone makes me admire him immensely. Simply wonderful.
So take note. Darvish didn't go nuts, call a lawyer, protest or use media help by calling of the injustices of the world. He acknowledged it and hoped there's a lesson learned in all this..he didn't use this as an excuse for blatant racism and the cause of the downfall of a race. That's a civilized way to handle the issue.
did you also take note gurriel apologized from his heart and is sorry? because i hope you did; clearly no one else did i cant even read this comment section
HenryFails4 ..gimme a break...he's sorry he got caught. Then all he gets is some meaningless suspension for a few games next year? How about suspend him for the rest of the WS? or how about him proactively working on sensitivity work?

Jorge Ugarte ....... I didn’t say it was racism. My message was that he had no class. It doesn’t matter what is accepted in other countries. This is the United States. My family is from Guatemala, but I know what is appropriate in the United States.
He's saying personally, it didn't bother him. He says that several times. But when pressed, he said it probably will reflect poorly for the team, but no one is perfect, and in the end, it would be a good learning opportunity. He's VERY chill.
The truth is, society thinks its okay to be openly racist towards Asians and this case is no different. He got suspended 5 games out of 162. That is absolutely nothing. If he was mocking a Black person, he probably would have gotten much more. You would think a Cuban like Yuli, would be a bit more sensitive to racism, but I guess you can't expect much from a Mexican.
Im Glad Yu Darvish has so much class and self discipline. It's just sad that Gurriel made such a disrespectful gesture. Honestly, I live in Houston and am an Astros fan BUT I feel they should have imposed some kind of immediate punishment for his actions. I mean DAMN...Can't we all just get along?? Darvish is half Iranian/Japanese and Gurriel is Cuban...Everyone is a minority. Don't we have enough damn problems going against us as PEOPLE in general!! GET IT TOGETHER!! #JustSad 😢😢😢😢
According to couple of Hispanic friends of mine, Cubans think they are lot more superior than other Hispanics. With Gurriel's immatureness at age of 33 and complete disrespect to Asian despite played in Japan, and being ignorant, I don't think so! If Astros lose, ( series is going back to LA anyway) he may be the primarily target for the blame!
I hate how people say how it was not racist and nothing. MLB had bad history with racism with Jackie Robinson. Every player wears (42) on Jackie Robinson Day as a symbol, even gurriel himself. He should know doing anything close to that crap is not acceptable at all and just wrong
Gurriel is just jealous of Darvish because he was born in a dump and poor country of Cuba while Darvish was born in a very disciplined and wealthy country of Japan.
If you’ve seen what dervish wrote, it’s a positive one, he doesn’t seem angry and that’s good. I would take offense to it because it was stupid what gurriel did. Gurriel just needs to understand at a time like this for all the racism rants it was not ok
There are many racists writing comments, we must know the culture of each country to be able to judge gestures, things that are admitted in some countries, are offensive in others.
No doubt, Gurriel should be suspended. This crap is ridiculous in 2017. Also, ACT AS IF. But Houston Astros been around since 1962 and have never won a World Series sooooo
So frustrating the translator is generalizing Darvish's words and skipping important nuances. Darvish said that the guy, "as a human, he is of questionable quality", and some nuanced feelings along with it. Also some other important context changing words. Man so frustrating. Lots of context left out and all the news reports are missing stuff because of it.
I will say though, at least hurried admitted it, 90% of other athletes would have made an excuse and denied it. He owned up to it and apologiZed and hopefully has learned from it.
Congratulations Darvish, way to be a profesional player, and I agree with you people like him shouldn't have a job in mlb, to me it's a sport and a role model for many kids, and I definelity don't want to see a guy like him representing baseball and my kids watch him it's embarrassing for baseball players and fans, what he did.
Vera Samantha “I’m desperate for validation and attention.” Just shut the fuck up and stop lusting after people that don’t even know of or care about your existence
In Cuba that gesture is not racism so he learned already the lesson. I’m CUBA blacks and whites are friends and grow up together without guns violence and killings
Dustin Heath racist? Are we racist? No kidding. I admit that Some Japanese 's easy to distinguish. However all Japanese doesn't. Moreover If your citizens are distinguished, do you keep silence? You also have bias against Japanese. You should change the mind too.
+Dustin Heath I don't know what's happened to you. But I think it's same reason Asian got discrimination. American kids grow up with few Asian, so they don't know about Asian. Japanese kids grow up with few non-Japanese, so they don't know about non-Japanese. That's it. Japanese should know the world more and be international tho
Can somebody respond to this. I searched up yu darvish and there was an interview and he was speaking English. I’m very confused because he has an interpreter in this
Thing that bothered me was that Gurriel didn’t COMMIT... He kinda did two little “check swings”, but never took a full chop at it. It’s kinda messed up but you know you’d be laughing if he just full-on pulled em all the way back and did a buck face...
People have to understand that Gurriel just got here not too long ago and in other countries "political correctness" just does not exist. I am Cuban and in Cuba everybody mocks everybody else and nobody cares. It is no big deal, nobody gets mad.
As a MLB fan , I hope MLB administration should fire that guy and go back to his country, if don't, Japan and Korea are going to stop watching MLB broadcasting. ASAP.
조성뷘 Bruh that's fucking racist. In Cuba (my country), we work and study too. Not only that. So shut up please. Don't judge my country if you don't know a damn thing about it.
In Houston? It certainly wouldn't be by a reliever that the Dodgers couldn't afford to lose. The series would be over for them. They've lost two in a row now. And that bullpen has been bounced.
I like guirrel and all but not the racist mock that he put on last game anyway Yu darvish is a good pitcher and I hope that mock does not get in the way of him.
That's why us Asian have to go to school study hard. Get good grades so that we can get a nice job. Being a baseball player , any idiot that has the athletic ability can do. It doesn't require any brains.
What a respectful, mature person. My respect to him. Taking ignorance with a grain of salt. Classy.
Pure class!! This is what fans will remember about this ridiculous gesture.. Darvish’s amazing composure and forgiveness when most would retaliate. What a guy. This alone makes me admire him immensely. Simply wonderful.

Because Asians are busy thinking about making money and dont want to waste our time with ignorant people

Gurriel is just jealous of Darvish because he was born in a dump and poor country of Cuba while Darvish was born in a very disciplined and wealthy country of Japan.
You’re so classy Yu Darvish!
I like his response to the situation. He didn’t get over sensitive even when the reporter was obviously trying to egg him own.
Why are these reporters being such jerks to Mr Darvish they speak to him like he's done something wrong.
He handled this with class and dignity 👍👍

Hey at least you don't have a stupid looking hair cut Darvish😊
ダルさんの『めちゃくちゃ怒ってますよ』って和まそうと言ったであろうに、誰も笑ってないほど差別って深刻な問題なんやな。
Yes Darvish is handsome! Way more handsome and way more class than Yuki Gurriel!!
Why can’t we all just get along? We are all brothers and sisters in the human race!
Rey Conifer Exactly! Now everyone is insulting Cuba because of what he did... -.-
Rey Conifer ?????
Darvish you rock. Way to rise above.
5 Game suspension in 2018 season is NOT enough! Gurriel deserves more! Pay fine too!
😂😂🤣
I don't get why he makes excuses for this type of behavior. He just normalize it and say its okay to mock Asian people
There are many racists writing comments, we must know the culture of each country to be able to judge gestures, things that are admitted in some countries, are offensive in others.
Too late to say this...don’t feed the racists trolls...
Gurriel has his boyfriends touching his hair in the dugout 24/7 lmao
Well ol pineapple hair can just go away because darvish is just perfect.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yu Darvish is half Japanese and half Iranian. I think the act of Gurrier can be seen as an insult to people in East Asia and Middle-East.
I understand discriminating Iranian people is much more unpardonable in US.
No doubt, Gurriel should be suspended. This crap is ridiculous in 2017. Also, ACT AS IF. But Houston Astros been around since 1962 and have never won a World Series sooooo
Why it was just a joke
How many 100 win teams have beaten the Yankees and the Boston Red Sox in the same year in October? Has there been any team?
And our Dodgers will make sure they never do jaja
So frustrating the translator is generalizing Darvish's words and skipping important nuances. Darvish said that the guy, "as a human, he is of questionable quality", and some nuanced feelings along with it. Also some other important context changing words. Man so frustrating. Lots of context left out and all the news reports are missing stuff because of it.
Terrible interpreter. Much gets lost in this translation.
People need to learn from Darvish to take the higher ground. No need for things like this to blow up into anthem protests or something
I support Yu!
I will say though, at least hurried admitted it, 90% of other athletes would have made an excuse and denied it. He owned up to it and apologiZed and hopefully has learned from it.
I wish I have eyes like his.
This dude speaks damn good English I wonder why he needs a translator
So discrimination doesn’t go away
hey yu!! come back to Japan, you are always very welcome !! we really miss you!!
I like how these "foreign" players use a translator as if they really don't know how to speak English.
It’s to make sure nothing gets taken out of context. Especially in big markets like LA and NY where media runs headlines
Congratulations Darvish, way to be a profesional player, and I agree with you people like him shouldn't have a job in mlb, to me it's a sport and a role model for many kids, and I definelity don't want to see a guy like him representing baseball and my kids watch him it's embarrassing for baseball players and fans, what he did.

Guriel is to blame for Houston being beaten by LA dodgers.
I 'm rooting for the Astros to beat the Dodgers but after this stupid incident bad Karma awaits...
The MLB bigwigs will make Gurriel play tomorrow's game in a kimono and use chop sticks to bat with.
Dodgers will win the series hands down. Yuli Gurriel has brought his team shame and bad luck.
His racist gesture is so embarrassing to baseball.
It is disgusting how Houston fans are cheering for Gurriel (game 4).
That was a very dignified answer
Shame on Gurriel! Doesn't he know you're only allowed to disrespect white men in this country?
Wait why does he have a translator? He can speak English
In Cuba that gesture is not racism so he learned already the lesson. I’m CUBA blacks and whites are friends and grow up together without guns violence and killings
What a class act !
Many Japanese kids were watching this game....Japan will never forget this sad issue...
勝手に日本代表みたいな言い方しないでくれ。
First of all Japan you should apologise korean sex servants during pacific war, korea never foget

Why the heck was he suspended for the next season instead of the World Series?
Can somebody respond to this. I searched up yu darvish and there was an interview and he was speaking English. I’m very confused because he has an interpreter in this
Darvish is actually not even fully Japanese, his father is persian ! so he's half middle eastern !

Yuli should get suspended in the World Series now
I remember doing stupid shit like that in grade school, but that was a long time ago. Very immature...
Here is a post on comparison between Asians and Blacks but the generalization is wrong. If it happened on Koreans?
People have to understand that Gurriel just got here not too long ago and in other countries "political correctness" just does not exist. I am Cuban and in Cuba everybody mocks everybody else and nobody cares. It is no big deal, nobody gets mad.

I think that a 97 mph fastball is in order.

What is with the interpreter Darvish understands and speaks English and suddenly he gets stupid
