Juan Soto sends Yankees to World Series with all-time Classic Homer

Ny Post ^

Juan Soto belted a three-run homer in the 10th inning to send the Yankees to the World Series with a 5-2 Game 5 ALCS-clinching win over the Guardians on Saturday night in Cleveland.

Soto’s historic blast followed Giancarlo’s two-run homer in the sixth inning, which had tied the game at two apiece.

I have both. And that’s kind of a prick way to judge people.

Actually I think it’s pretty accurate. Go on any message board where someone calls them the “Indians”, and watch the Karens go apoplectic.

Why?

Because my 77 year old mother got it for me and I’m not an ungrateful ahole

Yet you saw NONE of that in the stands yesterday did you? I’ve been to games. I’ve never seen one person in different gear confronting another. Not once. Separating people into voting groups based on what team shirt they wear has to be about the stupidest snap-judgement political take I’ve ever heard.

“What WOKE MORON POS came up with that name??”

It is a stupid name. Should have kept the Indians name and dumped the Chief Wahoo logo. By the way, I lived in Cleveland from ‘68 to ‘75. We used to go to Indians games at the old Municipal Stadium. Take the Rapid downtown, brave the “hey man, you got a nickel” kids, sit in the upper deck and sit in the box seats until the ushers saw us. I was one of the ten cent beer night hooligans.

The gardisils got defeated! If they would have stuck with Chief Wahoo they’d be winners!

Were you there for “Ten-Cent Beer Night”?

[dfwgator]

Gee, that’s what I get for not reading the entire post.

That movie eas filmed at Milwalkee County Stadium.

Yankees in the World Series for the first time since 2009. Will the Mets make it a Subway series?? Or will we have a classic Yankees - Dodgers matchup?

[Rummyfan]

Chief Wahoo…. I miss him!

[Rummyfan]

Those streaks are becoming fewer and farther between. Maybe The Series will provide him one more big stage? I dont believe he has ever played in one has he?

[dfwgator]

I miss Chief Nokahoma.

[Rummyfan]

Yeah him too. I saw him live a couple of times in the old ‘Launching Pad’!

[Tymesup]

Last Indians season was 2021.

Shohei Ohtani vs Aaron Judge…. That should be something

[BigEdLB]

Dodgers-Yankees. Who were the mvps?

[Rummyfan]

Dodgers - Yankees. It certainly has star power with Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge. And TV is happy as two huge media markets as well as teams with large national followings. I’ll take the Dodgers in six.
