To be fair, Machado has kind of been a horsefeathers head in this series

If the VB fans grow to hate Machado it might be more fun to get him.

I've never regretted anything. Clearly could have done a few things different. Maybe next lifetime. Matters? NOT!

 

This is the dorkiest horsefeathering thing of all time.

why is the first baseman standing on top of the bag?

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Was Braden with the A's still when Machado threw his bat at Donaldson?

Nah, that happened in 2014. Braden was done after 2011.

Yelich who seems like a pretty chill person, said after the game "horsefeathers that horsefeathers"

 

edit wow putting a space between mother and [expletive] catches both in the censor, i think it is important to know he called him a MFer

His foot was taking up way too much of the bag like an idiot but Machado still had about 2/3s of the bag that was open to land his feet on, he also wasn’t running overly hard as it was a relatively routine play and he had about 3-4 steps (not really running) to adjust where to put his feet before he got to the bag once the out was recorded. It was a dirty horsefeathering play by Machado.

his toe is on like 2 percent of the bag, come on. even if that is weird in anyway, it's orders of magnitude worse to horsefeathering kick the guy's foot for doing it. just touch the other 98 percent of open bag

Okay, but that is brutal footwork by the first baseman that is going to get somebody else injured and he should be stepped on every single time until he learns how to play beyond the level of a 6-year old.

who cares about his toe? The entire foot is over the bag.

Oh it’s absolutely awful footwork by Aguilar, there’s no reason to have that much of your foot on the base on a routine catch other than being a shitty fielder. On closer plays where guys are running harder he absolutely could get himself or the runner hurt (Jose Martinez is also awful at this when he plays 1B and I believe he suffered a foot/Achilles injury this year because of it). It’s pretty clear Machado went out of his way to hit Aguilar here though.

lmao so horsefeathering what. if machado runs like a normal person and not someone ATTEMPTING TO INJURE ANOTHER PLAYER no one even notices or cares.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

We should all be able to agree that Aguilar is a bear wearing a human suit trying and failing to play first base, and also that Machado unnecessarily took a dangerous and dirty swipe at him

really? I mean, it's pretty obvious machado ran at him because of how blatantly the first baseman was standing on the bag.

that's forgivable somehow? i feel like aguilar did something moderately stupid and machado did something incredibly stupid.

 

it's like someone calling you dumb and you're like wow that's rude and you hit them with your car in response. "hey shouldnt have called me dumb, [expletive]!"

well that would just be a badass movie hero response imo.

 

Aguilar put both players at risk of injury. Machado reciprocated. I don't think it was good that Machado did what he did, but I think it's crazy that so many people are ignoring how recklessly Aguilar was fielding. Also, I'm not paying any attention since baseball season ended and this play is the only thing I've seen and I don't want to have to watch anything else in this boring ass sport.

Remember this next year when someone shanks Rizzo in the stomach because of a standard Bryant throw.
