Trea Turner is a gamer

35. He/They. Baseball bisexual vegan christian weirdo Philly dad. Happily married. I will never get over the 2023 Philadelphia Phillies.

I have gone by "Romulus" online since it was cool to not give out your real name online, and I talk about baseball, hence "baseballromulus"

"Trea Turner is a gamer" was a memorable (to me) home run call during the 2023 WBC. I started using it as my display name on the other app and it stuck with me

explained to my toronto-based friend who was on the blue jays hype train that baseball isn't about winning the world series, it's about coming close to winning the world series and losing and then spending the rest of your life nitpicking the moments that changed everything

I love baseball.

tbf I assume everyone on the internet is either 10 years older than me or 10 years younger than me and your vibe is more zoomer than it is xennial

I am shocked to learn that you were born in 1991, I thought you were like 10 years younger than me

Also, I'm a bit jealous that my Toronto friend is experiencing the equivalent of 2022 but is probably going to see a win, but I'm also happy for them AND I want Vladdy to be a world champion

RIP Pierre Robert. Grew up listening to that guy. Philly legend. 🙏

Cal Raleigh calling his season where he won the Home Run Derby, hit 60 HR as a switch hitting catcher, won the AL West, and came within a game of the world series a "failure" is the kind of thing that Philly fans want their players to do.

That Ken Jennings rally time video and the Mariners magical run makes me miss Seattle so much. (I lived there for seven years...our marriage certificate is registered in King County.)

I’m no Humpy but I do have an unusually powerful “Rally Time” video.

The Mets spend more money than anyone and they didn't even make the playoffs with three wild cards. It's not about money, it's about the Dodgers having exclusive access to Japanese talent.

I get that it wants to pretend to be golden age Twitter but I need an edit button....
I mean tbh I already do. Probably ranks last on my list of playoff disappointments the past four years.

1) 2023, truly choked I will never get over it my whole life
2) 2024, getting owned by the Mets sucks
3) 2022, lost to the better team but were right there
4) 2025, barely lost to the better team
I wonder if after the playoffs are over, we’ll feel better about the Phillies showing against the Dodgers. We are nine games into their postseason and run, and their 4 hardest games were all against us.

My stance is that a pitcher's duel is a lot of fun on television but terrible at the ballpark.

Brice Turang taking a potentially career ending pitch to the knee to tie the game? Maybe.

Brice Turang not swinging at ball 4 to tie the game? Definitely.

I've been off Twitter so long that I'm finding it difficult not to fall for obvious bait.

You would know better than me - I know it's mostly the time zone and lack of strong Japanese community, but could the boobird culture also be driving away Japanese talent? It feels like a very distinctly American thing.

Could see him as a Mariner (Geno is a free agent) or a Yank (I think he expressed interest in them) though the Mets might pursue him hard since none of their third base guys have worked out, they might lose their franchise first baseman, and his team in Japan (Yakult Swallows) are the Mets again.

Cannot stand the term "instant classic"

It's not even that the Dodgers beat the Phillies, it's just that dynasties are lame and underdog stories are fun
