t-dot till they bury me
I am half Dominican

My uncles all played adult softball and cousins all play baseball

Once I was like 3 years old and I walked onto the softball field looking for my uncle. And I asked the left fielder “where’s Domingo?” And he was like “I don’t speak English”, which at 3 years old confused me because he said it in English

Then pop fly got hit to left field and pushed me away, hard as fukk actually. Nobody said anything :mjlol:
You remember being 3? :dahell:
:ehh:

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
compare a country of 11 million to a country of 350 million :snoop:
Baseball is the most popular sport in the DR. Baseball in the U.S. is only the 3rd most popular sport.
In other words the premise of this thread is un informed, illogical and is an example of another random hot take that people in this country are use to giving just to get an instant reaction out of people.

It’s less about the popularity of the sport and more about how MLB has hurt itself with the arrogant “culture” over the decades all because the ones who make the rules have no rhythm, a shytty sense of humor and the country only celebrates bullshyt politics, war and things not being good enough unless they dominate completely because everyone else is supposed to be deemed inferior.

Popularity matters. The NFL is a prime example. The NFL used to be hard nosed. College football as well. But as it grew in popularity the culture changed.

Can't wait for tomorrow's game. Where are they playing at? If it's in Miami I expect there to be a heavy Dominican crowd in there making there presence felt. With Skenes starting for USA, should be good times.

First dream was the moon talking to me (retroactively realized this was the voice of my parents)
First nightmare was the tales of the crypt guy knocking on my door
