There's a lot of interesting things about the sport but because the game has never connected with me, just watching a game or hearing friends talk about the games doesn't do anything for me.

    Bill Buckner was a hell of a hitter, 22 years and not once did he strike out more than two times in any given game. I'm so glad the curse is long over and he was embraced by the Red Sox and fans before he passed. It meant a lot to him.

He caught a ton of abuse for the play, but he did what he could. I can still see the look on his face when it happened. Ugh.

    I was watching the game when the Buckner error happened. He was in a crouch stance 20 feet behind the bag. He also had the worst knees in Baseball. On the other hand, Mookie Wilson was one of the fastest runners in Baseball and by the time the ball reaches Buckner, Mookie was nearly halfway down the line running full speed. I've seen the replay 50 times since then and my opinion has not changed. Even if Buckner fields the ball cleanly there's no way he beats Mookie to the bag. And yet he's had to live with the shame of that error for all these years. Man, talk about cruel fate.

Your life will go on. Sending death threats for a human being making a mistake, something ALL OF US do, is what an unstable person does. And if you’re one of those people, you need to put the phone down, and seek help. It’s insanity at its peak. Completely uncalled for.

    About that Rivera blown save that cost the Yankees the World Series, Tim McCarver said that "bringing the Yankees infield in was a mistake. If anyone could hit Rivera's cutter, it would be a broken bat hit into shallow outfield." The VERY NEXT PITCH, Gonzalez hit a broken bat flyball that would have been caught at normal infield depth.

    I've been a baseball fan for over 40 years. More than people just playing baseball here, there are great life lessons to be had. First, this goes to show who your friends really are when things go south. The people making rude and obscene comments are the perfect example, and they could also use a good psychiatric evaluation. Two faced fans are the absolute worse. The true love of a fan comes through both the bitter and the sweet. It's a game. We're human, and we make mistakes. And I for one, have made many mistakes which have taught me great life lessons. I've learned best, the hard way. That's what I get for being so thick-headed.

      This video represents sloppy, sloppy work. Typical of BDE.
      As a Met fan, I can point out the falsehoods he published here _just_ about the Mets:
      1. Daniel Murphy is royalty in this town. After his 2015 WS error, everyone noted that Murph was the one who got them to the World Series. Without Murphy, the Mets would have lost the NLDS to the Dodgers, even before he hit four more HRs in the NLCS against the Cubs. Perhaps a couple of yahoos tweeted something stupid, but that was _not_ the general opinion in NY. Not then, not now.
      2. Who the hell is "Rich" Aguilera? Really?? Rick Aguilera had a wonderful career, including winning another World Series while closing games for the 1991 Twins. You don't know his name??
      3. In G6 of the 1986 World Series, Bob Stanley did not "immediately" throw a wild pitch. It was something like the fifth pitch of the at bat.
      4. No, Mookie Wilson was not followed in the order by Mookie Wilson. It was not the "next batter" who grounded to first under Buckner's glove. It was the same person who had avoided the wild pitch.
      (5. A technicality saves BDE on the next mistake. He said that the next day the Red Sox lost the World Series to the Mets. But Game 7 was rained out, and postponed by one day, a major story at the time because it allowed Boston to bring back Bruce Hurst (who'd owned the Mets) to start G7 instead of Oil Can Boyd (who'd gotten smacked around). BDE gets lucky on this one, because G6 ended around 12:30 AM, so technically it was the "next" day, 47 hours later (11:27 pm).)
      Bonus: At times in this video, BDE makes it sound as if every fan in Chicago wanted to assault Bartman, and every Boston fan Buckner, everyone in St. Louis Denkinger, etc. I would imagine that the physical threats came from .00000000001% of the population. Every one of those noobs should be locked up, but should the whole town be blamed? Really??
      Anyway...if you make that many mistakes regarding just one team in this 20+ minute video, how many more errors did _you_ make? Such is UA-cam.

      Bonus: At times in this video, BDE makes it sound as if every fan in Chicago wanted to assault Bartman, and every Boston fan Buckner, everyone in St. Louis Denkinger, etc. I would imagine that the physical threats came from .00000000001% of the population. Every one of those noobs should be locked up, but should the whole town be blamed? Really??
      Anyway...if you make that many mistakes regarding just one team in this 20+ minute video, how many more errors did _you_ make? Such is UA-cam.
      Do your homework, BDE.

      Sloppy, sloppy work. Typical of BDE.
      As a Met fan, I can point out the falsehoods he published here _just_ about the Mets:
      1. Daniel Murphy is royalty in this town. After his 2015 WS error, everyone noted that Murph was the one who got them to the World Series. Without Murphy, the Mets would have lost the NLDS to the Dodgers, even before he hit four more HRs in the NLCS against the Cubs. Perhaps a couple of yahoos tweeted something stupid, but that was _not_ the general opinion in NY. Not then, not now.
      2. Who the hell is "Rich" Aguilera? Really?? Rick Aguilera had a wonderful career, including winning another World Series while closing games for the 1991 Twins. You don't know his name??
      3. In G6 of the 1986 World Series, Bob Stanley did not "immediately" throw a wild pitch. It was something like the fifth pitch of the at bat.
      4. No, Mookie Wilson was not followed in the order by Mookie Wilson. It was not the "next batter" who grounded to first under Buckner's glove. It was the same person who had avoided the wild pitch.
      (5. A technicality saves BDE on the next mistake. He said that the next day the Red Sox lost the World Series to the Mets. But Game 7 was rained out, and postponed by one day, a major story at the time because it allowed Boston to bring back Bruce Hurst (who'd owned the Mets) to start G7 instead of Oil Can Boyd (who'd gotten smacked around). BDE gets lucky on this one, because G6 ended around 12:30 AM, so technically it was the "next" day, 47 hours later (11:27 pm).)

    The fans had blocked off all the exits, and were waiting to kill the ref.

    From what I know, the Red Sox put Bill at 1st base at that point in the game because he was a baseball veteran and it was near the end of his career anyway (so like an act of appreciation for all that he did in his career). Apparently, the man was so hated in Boston after the game he had to move himself and his family to Idaho because of the backlash. He would stay there for the remainder of his life btw. Just remember that when you watch back the footage on that ground ball mistake Buckner made, you are essentially watching the worst day of someone's life second by second.

    As a Cubs fan everybody knows the story of Brant Brown who was our outfielder and backup first baseman in 1998 dropped a ball in the outfield against the brewers that cost us the game and almost cost us the wild card that year.he ended up becoming a pariah in Chicago because of one of Ron Santos most infamous calls in Cubs radio history for his heartbreaking scream of no when Brant dropped the ball made fans instantly turn on him he got traded to Pittsburgh the following year was never the same and ended up playing in the independent leagues and to this day his name has a bad taste in Cubs fans mouths as bad as bartman

    I remember Castillo as a great batter, not a very good defenseman, but that play will forever be in my mind because of how overplayed it is. Like, I was on my high school softball team, and I still beat myself up over a play that I easily could have caught, but looked away to make sure the runner wasn't going, I can't imagine how much worse it is for professional players

    A couple of years ago, the Arkansas Razorbacks were in the College World Series. They were up 1 game to 0 in the 3 game series, leading in the 2nd game until the ninth. On what should've been the last out, the other team ( I can't remember who exactly) hit an infield fly ball that should've been routinely caught. It was dropped and the team eventually scored to both tie and win. In game 3, the other team won again

    That Phillies-Dodgers game is why teams should not just take the pressure off as soon as they build a substantial lead. There's often an expectation that you should just stop trying to play well once you've got a big lead, but this makes no sense. If you put in all your scrubs, you're giving the opposition a chance to come back. And you don't want them to come back.
