Looks like the Indians are losing Chief Wahoo in 2019.

Shame really.

Just hope the Indians fans just buy shedloads of Wahoo shirts and hats this season then don't buy anything in 2019 to teach the MLB a lesson.

Looks like MLB is coming to England. We get the Yankees and Red Sox (worst team name ever!) at the Olympic Stadium next June. I probably will head over. I do have a Yankees shirt but I could just go and wind up some people with the Chief Wahoo Indians shirt I have!

At least you get to see a pretty good rivalry. Nothing like football rivalries, but those two teams hate each other for sure.

Tempted to go to this

Stadium is minutes away from where I live

Know nothing of Baseball and the only players ive heard of ever are the first woman to play in Baseball, that Babe Ruth chick and of course the greatest player ever Michael Jordan as he showed in Space Jam in the beginning of the film

Knew nothing of NFL and went to a game at Wembley stadium and was impressed so been following every SuperBowl since 2013 and chosen a team

Might do the same here

Whens the Baseball Super Bowl?

Baseball games are fantastic sporting events to attend.

1. Tickets are cheap af since there's 162 regular season games. Although, you might pay out of your nose for tickets in London since it'll be a novelty event with the MLB's biggest rivalry.
2. "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the seventh inning stretch never gets old.
3. If the game hits a dull period, you can go walk around the stadium and usually find something else to do.
4. The food.
5. Witnessing strategies you may miss on TV like infield shifts. Baseball seems like a boring game, but there's so much strategy involved. Basically, if you enjoy board games like chess, then you'll probably enjoy baseball.

If y'all do go, you'll have a blast! I remember Callum talking about enjoying his first Toronto Blue Jays game.

I really need to go see a game in Japan one day. Apparently, they're more crazed than we are lol

Not surprising considering a lot of Asians are fanatical.
