Being a Kraken fan in KC, tying STL with 0.5 left to set up an OT win is pretty sweet! #SeaKraken

Oh yeah, and his teammate, Freddie Freeman, became the first player in baseball history with multiple World Series walk off home runs.

- Was intentionally walked 4 times, a first in postseason history.

- He and Mookie Betts each had 4 hits, the first teammates to do that in a WS game since Corey Seager and Justin Turner on 10/24/2020 (LAD). Those are the only two times teammates have each had 4 hits in a WS game since 1982.

- Became the second player ever with 4 XBH in a World Series game (Frank Isbell, CWS, 10/13/1906).

- Became the first player to have 3 multi-HR games in a single postseason.

- Was walked 5 times, a first in WS history, second time in postseason history (Corey Seager, TEX, 2023 ALDS).

Now that the dust has settled and we’ve all gotten some sleep, here’s what Shohei Ohtani accomplished last night:

- Became the second player ever to reach base in each of 9 PA. The first was Max Carey on 7/7/1922 (5 singles, 1 double, 3 walks).

If I had a nickel for every time an OF turned a double play on a ball that hit the fence in a playoff game against the Dodgers, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice. #MLBPlayoffs

What a throw by the Dumper to catch Colt Keith stealing! #MLBPlayoffs

Love a Mahomes Monday! #ChiefsKingdom

Would be a shame if Cleveland lost this series because their best bullpen arm was betting on baseball. #MLBPlayoffs

Fifty years after death of Kansas City legend, it’s time to revive his name here Casey Stengel’s very name is a tribute to Kansas City. So why isn’t he properly honored here?

That last play of the first half is EXACTLY why the Chiefs win football games. Every player was ready for the worst case scenario and executed.

“Refs love the Chiefs” folks can argue with the wall.

Yeah, no problem! It can certainly be confusing at first. Feeds like that are the best way to get started in finding the kind of stuff you like, then from there you can follow folks and start building up your more wide ranging “For You” or “Following” kind of feeds.

No. The Royals got two young pitchers who are already having success at the major league level for a backup catcher who is older than both of them. If anything, it’s a good trade for both sides, more so KC. Love Freddy, but this is a great move, for this season and onward.

I’ll be rooting for Freddy in San Diego, gonna miss him! But you can’t be mad at the return.

I think Maile remains backup catcher throughout this season, but this clears the way for Jensen/Mitchell moving forward.

Great forward thinking move from JJ.

I’m beginning to think Salvy stumbled upon the Fountain of Youth over the All Star Break #FountainsUp

If the Royals are going to end up selling, the least they could do is not have two of their biggest trade chips give up all the runs. #FountainsUp

This is the bigger issue. Frazier clearly isn’t going to set the world on fire, and I don’t get the strong reaction to losing a 28 y/o who hasn’t seen a big league pitch & likely has no role here, but we’ve had a few years to figure out the OF. Assuming we end up selling, that needs to be the focus.

MLB is going Hog Wild right now! #WPS #MLBDraft

After breaking a 14 game losing streak at The K on Tuesday, I now have a two game Nick Loftin walk off streak.

Baseball is weird.
