Bloody work, getting the the way of baseball

Only just found out about it

Is it fair to say this is categorised as the "clean" record? Are there any question marks over Judge?

[PeterWithesShin]

If you watch footage of it, keep an eye on the fan that jumps over the railings in the hope he gets the ball, he didn't. Probably lucky not to have a broken leg/ankle. Although as the bloke who did catch it has already been reportedly offered $2m for it, I guess it's worth the jump on the off chance it didn't make the seats.

Clean as far as I'm aware. He's just a powerful human

Sorry Risso, only just seen this question

The squad was a mixture of British born, British ancestry and British passport holders

A few players with MLB experience and some prospects from the Minor Leagues

The Blue Jays somehow contrived to lose after being 8-1 up.

[Meanwood Villa]

Three teams in the National League won over 100 games this season. None are in the championship series.

Your World Series participants are the Phillies and Astros

LOL Yankees....from looking like an all time great team at the All Star Break, to getting swept in the ALCS

[UK Redsox]

Astros won the World Series by 4 games to 2.

Planned to watch some of it but it was all on at inconvenient times. Far too much sport this weekend, should have had it on a Friday night.
