Yamamoto, Special


That was amazing. 

These MLB playoffs have given us baseball junkies some awesome performances, moments, and overall happenings to be amazed by. Of them all, the final cap on the 2025 season was that of Yohsinobu Yamamoto. 

Jealousy aside of him spurning my New York Yankees to join the (new evil empire in the) Los Angeles Dodgers, what Yamamoto did has no precise words to describe it.

A VERY rare group of pitchers. Dawgs. Rubber arms. Insane guts.

And somehow, as I punch a few words following his performance this postseason, Yamamoto's legend may surpass them both into another stratosphere once the moment has a chance to settle. 

For now, this was special. Amazing. All of the words.

Would you rather have Giannis Antetokounpo with no driving ability or James Harden with no Three-Point shooting ability?  This is definitely a weird and unique one, but I'll take Harden. Giannis without his strength doesn't offer much. However, if Harden's d...
