I've heard of the bat breaking the plane but I've never seen the plane breaking the bat

[u/RedManMatt11 → u/ANGRY_BEARDED_MAN]

Outstanding

[u/Admiral_Asparagus → u/ANGRY_BEARDED_MAN]

lollll

[u/PurpleBullets → u/ANGRY_BEARDED_MAN]

You’re telling me a shrimp fried this rice?

[u/turtlemustangnick1 → u/PurpleBullets]

You’re telling me a crab gooned in this rag??

[u/tdepew14]

MLB about to suspend another Mariner for throwing their bat at Estes.

[u/Measure76 → u/tdepew14]

Victor rigged Jorge's bat to avoid suspicion.

[u/tdepew14 → u/Measure76]

[u/Measure76 → u/tdepew14]

I hope you understand I was not serious.

[u/tdepew14 → u/Measure76]

Haha of course I get it.

Victor’s kind of a clown though so now you got me suspecting

[u/PolPotbelly → u/tdepew14]

He's crowding the mound. What are we supposed to do?

[u/Dizzeler → u/tdepew14]

We were conned

[u/porkchopespresso]

What was the call on that one, out of curiosity

[u/rawbb85 → u/porkchopespresso]

Strike. Took him to an 0-2 count.

[u/Dr_Loke → u/porkchopespresso]

Off it’s anything other than a strike I’ll just quit watching

For two days.

[u/JustinJeffersonsAlt → u/Dr_Loke]

But it should’ve been a ball

[u/Clitler73 → u/JustinJeffersonsAlt]

His bat went through the zone

[u/_Elrond_Hubbard_]

Is it possible that Joey Estes has some type of magnetic effect on bats?

[u/The_Throwback_King → u/_Elrond_Hubbard_]

I swear, the bat came on to me.

[u/DungeonMusic]

He definitely went around

[u/philocity → u/DungeonMusic]

and around and around and around

[u/Hbgplayer → u/philocity]

Baby right round

[u/JKBraden → u/Hbgplayer]

like a record baby

[u/reverendrambo → u/JKBraden]

Right round round round

[u/kilrathi_butts → u/philocity]

I got me a Chrysler

[u/Thromnomnomok → u/kilrathi_butts]

It's as big as a whale, and it's about to set sail!

[u/HungrymanH → u/DungeonMusic]

his wrists broke... the bat

[u/damien_maymdien]

I love that Polanco's sunglasses look like that.

[u/fly_guy1 → u/damien_maymdien]

He looks like the evil marshal guy from O Brother Where Art Thou.

[u/notsafeformactown → u/fly_guy1]

he looks like Greg Raymer

[u/bajesus → u/fly_guy1]

They always remind me of Hugo Strange from the Batman comics

[u/PurpleBullets → u/fly_guy1]

He looks like Christopher Lloyd in Roger Rabbit

[u/PaPaJ0Ke → u/damien_maymdien]

[u/HonoluluLemonade → u/PaPaJ0Ke]

lol what a pull

[u/Less_University7400 → u/damien_maymdien]

I low key want a pair if anyone can ID them. I love them

[u/Repulsive-Ad-7180 → u/damien_maymdien]

Yeah those glasses elevate the whole situation. Not that it needed elevating, the Mariners are on one this season. 

[u/ShillinTheVillain → u/damien_maymdien]

[u/Disused_Yeti]

did he do like that trick of putting the two halves of a broken pencil back together and it looks good? needed to put some scotch tape around it though

[u/Zeke688 → u/Disused_Yeti]

Clubhouse equipment manager: we got this

[u/photomike → u/Disused_Yeti]

yeah that bat was definitely cracked before the swing

[u/FunnyID]

I'll have to add it to my list.

[u/ttw206 → u/FunnyID]

That first guy is pretty small, he should hit the gym

[u/m0nkeybl1tz]

I'd hate to see this guy's grip when he's jacking it

[u/King_Fluffaluff → u/m0nkeybl1tz]

I'd love to see it...

[u/ttw206 → u/King_Fluffaluff]

She's mashing it

[u/sameth1]

Was it called a checked swing?

[u/Low-Hovercraft-8791 → u/sameth1]

Bat crossed the plane, so...

[u/voncornhole2 → u/Low-Hovercraft-8791]

Wrists didnt break, so...

[u/angershark]

Check swing bat flip

[u/Obvodny]

Anime ass move

[u/in-circles-again]

Puig did that years back. Just as good of a highlight 😊

[u/Fire-Twerk-With-Me]

It was probably already broken or had enough micro cracks.

[u/Different_Bat4715 → u/Fire-Twerk-With-Me]

Shhhhh…. Let me believe that Jorge Polanco is the strongest man in the league.

[u/CodyDon2 → u/Fire-Twerk-With-Me]

100%. I've broken a bat on a barreled up ball bc it was already cracked. 

[u/glory_to_ukraine_93]

Striiiii

[u/IchBinDurstig]

I definitely remember Jim Rice doing this back in the day.

[u/Flat-Antelope-7424]

So hypothetically if he held up but the bat broke did he swing?

[u/Google_Knows_Already]

He's gripping the bat too hard

[u/templethot → u/Google_Knows_Already]

[u/appleavocado → u/Google_Knows_Already]

ahem we've all gone through that, right? Right?

[u/Coney_Island_Hentai]

wood went through that's a strike all day.

[u/JonTheWizard]

When did they start making bats out of particle board? That's the only explanation for that bat's weakness I can think of.

[u/DigiQuip → u/JonTheWizard]

It was already broken.
