MUST LISTEN: ESPN Radio's Don La Greca Goes Ape Shit On a Caller Who Thinks Aaron Judge Should've Been Pinched-Hit For In The 9th To Avoid The Strikeout Record
Shoutout to my guy John Rogers for grabbing the whole thing on video.
“GET A LIFE, GO WATCH CNN”
That fucking dude just got his life shit on. I mean he was 10000% wrong thinking Girardi should’ve pulled Judge in the ninth inning to avoid the strikeout record. Legit couldn’t be more wrong about anything ever. It’s a 5-3 game in the 9th inning and you wanna pinch hit the guy that just hit a ball to Saturn? Who cares about a strikeout record when you can do this?
This guy that called in was flat out miserable because Judge set the record for most consecutive games with a punch out. Not happy about the three game winning streak and not happy about Judge’s 600 foot homer. Nope, miserable because Aaron Judge struck out. I honestly haven’t even thought about the record today. Who fucking cares? He’s going to strike out…a lot. He’s also going to hit 40+ homers every single year and bat around .270. I couldn’t care less about strikeouts.
Now I’m not the biggest fan of Don La Greca, but I mean this was gold. He’s a million percent right.
“YOU’RE A CLOWN! GET A LIFE STEVE, DON’T BOTHER MY LIFE. LOSE THE NUMBER, YOU’RE BANNED!”
“IS STEVE’S ON I’M LEAVING. IF I EVER SEE HIM ON HOLD I’M WALKING OFF”
Fucking Brilliant. It was Francesa-esque and I loved every second of it. Straight up eviscerated and Steve deserved it all. He literally said, “What happens if he hits a homer. It’s 6-3.” Well Steve have you seen how the 9th inning has gone lately? What a fucking idiot.
