Arrr! Cap’n Roberts be usin’ Machado’s ruckus as a merry distraction for his crew o’ scallywags! Har har!
2024-10-12
Arrr, just a day after the Dodgers' scallywags were bested 10-2 by the Padres, Captain Dave Roberts be shoutin' at Manny Machado for hurlin' a cannonball his way with a wee bit o' malice! Aye, all part o' some sneaky sea dog scheme, I reckon!
Arrr, gather 'round me hearties and lend yer ears to this jolly tale of baseball shenanigans! In the midst of the NLDS, the cap'n of the Los Angeles Dodgers, one Dave Roberts, did accuse the scallywag Manny Machado of throwin' a baseball "aimed at me with a bit o' malice!" Aye, it was all but a ruse, a clever bit of gamesmanship, savvy?Ye see, the Dodgers had just been walloped by the San Diego Padres, a right thrashin' of 10-2! Tempers were hotter than a cannonball in the sun, with Machado and Flaherty bickering like two landlubbers in a tavern. Dodgers fans, in their fervor, flung debris like a storm at Jurickson Profar and Fernando Tatis Jr., causin’ a right kerfuffle!
Now, Roberts did keep mum about Machado’s antics after the game, claimin’ it was all part of his grand strategy to rally the crew. "It was! It was!" he exclaimed, as the Dodgers turned the tide to claim victory in Game 5 and sail onward to the NLCS!
With a wink and a nod, he praised his bond with Manny and said this diversion did help lighten the burden o' pressure. So, the Dodgers prepare to face the New York Mets, all while the Padres be silent as the grave, not a peep in their last 24 innings! Har har, what a merry spectacle of sport!
