You think it'd be fun to read the comments, until you see that an U12 (!) match makes a whole bunch of American nationalists get super serious about their country being the 'oldest and greatest in the world' and anyone who says that might not be entirely true is deemed a total idiot :d

California gets a walk-off home run to win the Little League Series. They beat :CUW in the final.

 

If I’ve said it a million times, I’ve probably said it a billion times; California is the best state in the Union. All the fake ass states can shove it. (Okay, maybe overboard there, but we don’t get a lot of opportunities to beat other state’s champions in sports.)

I'd say it is might be a bit unfortunate if a children's event is where one has to get their sports successes, but a win is a win, so yeah :p

after Tonight game #1 of the MLB World Series goes on stage, Tomorrow (11.30 a.m. CET) it's time also for the NPB to start their finals, the Japan Series 2023

 

after dominating their respective league in the Regular Season and in the Climax Series (the LCS, to use the same name of the MLB), this year's showdown is the highly anticipated Kansai Derby, where the reigning champions, Osaka Orix Buffaloes face the Hanshin Tigers from Nishinomiya

 

like all the major leagues' final series, it's a best-of-7 series with the classic 2-3-2 format

2023 Japan Series

 

after the first 2 games were one-sided and very disappointing in terms of "atmosphere" on the pitch, game #3 and #4 were very close and both had a very emotional ending (game #4 finished with a walk-off single in the bottom of the 9th inning)

 

Game #3, Orix Buffaloes b. Hanshin Tigers 5-4 in Nishinomiya

2023 Japan Series

 

Buffaloes' superstar pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto had a rough start that made the home fans tremble with fear, but after the nightmerish 2nd inning, he came back strong and pitched a gem in the remaining 7 innings, allowing his teammates to complete the job and earn the chance to play the series decider Tomorrow

at the end of the day, it's a complete game with 9 hits surrendered and a record breaking 14 strikeouts for Yamamoto and a 5-1 win for the Buffaloes

 

Game #6Orix Buffaloes b. Hanshin Tigers 5-1 in Osaka

2023 Japan Series

 

after a 38 years long drought, the Hanshin Tigers have done it! 

 

they are the new Japan Series Champions!!! :champion: :bowdown:

 

3 runs in the 4th and 3 more in the 5th inning sealed the deal as no sign of life was shown by the Buffaloes through the entire game (which was a pretty disappointing one, for being the series decider of a matchup started with so much hype)

 

Game #7Hanshin Tigers b. Orix Buffaloes 7-1 in Osaka

 

game details

https://npb.jp/bis/eng/2023/games/s2023110501862.html

 

the Tigers won the Series 4-3

    • It’s simply the only skating event where jumps don’t matter, only choreography. And how much you bribe the judges matters too.

    • Not the biggest fan of figure skating especially with what has happened this season but since it’s the Olympics I guess I’m watching 
    • Czech Euroeport commentator: wow I see there only 9 pairs starting, Korea probably thought they have no chances and decided to not send a pair here, what a dumb move   omfg... I know for being a sport announcer you not need any special requirements, but I think having some basic infos about the event you are going to comment should be fine to have at least
    • Don't know if other nations' media have picked this up, but here in  the aerodynamics of ski jumping are a question.of fascination.  Or one particular aspect of it.   The World Anti-Doping Agency could investigate if evidence emerges that male ski jumpers are injecting their penises in a bid to improve sporting performance.   In January, German newspaper Bild, external reported that jumpers were injecting their penises with hyaluronic acid before being measured for their suits     https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/czej70jyg4eo
