@ReggieChatman The challenge system is so stupid and inefficient. You guys should learn from KBO. Seriously.

This is what ABS is all about baby

@HyeseongKimMuse trade him please

Hyeseong Kim has a hit in his first at-bat of the year! He leads off the game with a single! #김혜성

@notcomplex_ mentioning nobel prize for the ultimate reference is such a korean thing to say

In Korea, test scores determine whether you go to the top colleges. Also in Korea, doctor is the highest paying and most prestigious stable job. So the vast majority of an entire country's best minds (over 75%) become doctors. So far Korea has won zero Nobel Prizes.

@bob_katz7 @xanbarksdale what was fine???

@xanbarksdale Unintended consequences of tinkering too much with something that was fine for over 150 years

Interesting ABS situation here. 3-2, runner goes, ball 4 is called and he pulls up into 2B. Catcher challenges… and now you start to wonder what would happen if it’s overturned. Are the announcers right, would this become a double play? Or would the umpires send the runner back to first since the original call influenced the play?

@HyeseongKimMuse Good bye Dodgers!

@namjoonsnachos @elxsticgirl 😂😂😂 oddly great song

@elxsticgirl Mine was Catallena by orange caramel. I was like 11 and had never heard Gangam style cause I was extremely sheltered but I started going to an after school club out of necessity and a staff member there played this. Changed my life man.

Everyone's first Korean song was gangam style by psy right???

@shinobu_books "朝鮮ノ持也"

A 1785 Map of Japan produced by a Samurai from Sendai Domain. Hokkaido is totally out of control, the Kuril Islands are ginormous and Sakhalin is a peninsula instead of an island. Other than that, everything looks good

@0xCryptonian @LADodgersMuse Elite 3rd eh? '25 Freeland: 112 innings 32 chances 1 error = fielding rate 0.969 Kim 342inn. 162 chances = fielding rate 0.988 Kim's fielding with CF wad 128inn field rate 0.971, higher than Freeland's elite 3rd position. That's wild.

@radical82 @LADodgersMuse Freeland switch hitter and elite 3rd with SS background. Not that I don’t believe you it’s just facts that Freeland provides more versatility

With the news, let’s compare numbers 👀 Kim: Freeland: 27 ABs 43 ABs .407 AVG .116 AVG 1 HR 1 HR 6 RBIs 7 RBI .967 OPS .519 OPS

@0xCryptonian @LADodgersMuse Kim can play SS, 2nd, 3rd, RF, CF. You can check his previous positions if you don't believe me.

@LADodgersMuse Freeland can play 2nd, short, and 3rd.

@Yotaro2426 @MLBONFOX To show other teams that we have a good player so we can sell him. Only possible explanation.

@MLBONFOX This is so unfair. If his amazing performance in spring training doesn’t give him the opportunity to be on the MLB team, what was the point of ST?

The Dodgers announced that Hyeseong Kim will begin the season in Oklahoma City

@NikkeiAsia 8% isn't going to be merely enough

@rocknrollofall C-G-Am-F Anyone who's played a guitar knows. Basic set.

He claimed every pop song is the same and then proved it in the most legendary way possible.

@JWhitebread1 it's interesting that asian leaders try hard to understand their culture and not cross the line, whereas the US leader crosses the line and try hard to explain their culture

Okay, I think I need to explain something to any Japanese listeners. In American culture, very close friends often express affection through a practice we call "giving grief" or less delicately, "bustin' balls." We insult each other, make inappropriate comments at the other's expense, often at very inappropriate times, etc. It is frankly, one of the surest signs of trust and closeness between equals. We wouldn't do this with someone who WASN'T a very close friend and confidant. You see this more amongst men, and more in informal situations. Admittedly, you don't see it much in professional settings, and it almost never appears in international diplomacy, BUT, Trump is built different. I have no doubt, that's how Trump meant it. It's too on the nose to be anything else. He's trying to say, we respect you and admire you greatly, and we can banter like this, because we are equals. The correct response is to utterly ROAST or insult your friend back in response. This can even evolve into what is called a "game of dozens" which is a friendly contest to see you can insult their friend with the best, most scathing insult. I think I will stop before I have to explain "Your Momma" jokes, but I think you can get the gist. Please feel free to utterly destroy America with a clever insult in response.

@pirooooon3 我們需要理解這背後的無奈。這並非韓國刻意矮化，而是延續自2004年以來的行政系統慣例 南韓目前的低調與「不正式回應」，其實是為了將爭議限縮在「行政分類」層級，防止其升級為國家主權的正面衝突。這種「冷處理」雖然令人失望，但卻是為了避免引發更大的外交風暴而那正是中國最希望看到的局面

韓国が 『中国(台湾)』 と表記するらしいです それを受けて 台湾は『南韓』に変更 台湾の対応を支持しますか？ 韓国がなぜ変更したのか 理由は分からないが 台湾人にしたら感じ悪いよね

@Jayysein That insane G would have instantly killed the turtle

@parkinscroat Now are we finally changing the name 'World Series' to 'USA Series'?

America having a rare chance to legitimately call themselves world champions at one of the sports they invented and bottling it is very funny.

@Nereo151 @NBCNews FIFA be like "Baseball??"

Having set attendance and broadcast viewer records, the World Baseball Classic will return in 2029 or 2030 and at some point, could be moved to midseason, when clubs would be less likely to restrict players. nbcnews.com/sports/mlb/wor…

@Civixplorer the gap between christianity and bhudism is very small by region. to visualize in this manner is so misleading

@Civixplorer so not true. we could equally say "korea is united with one religion: no religion" since majority of koreans don't have a religion

The religious division in South Korea 🇰🇷
