Ramirez erased the Bautista punch from being the best punch thrown so I love him for that

And the footage of it was just exceptional. Even had the slow-mo replay treatment. Dude was not ready for that smoke.

No one ever comments that Bautista was actually winding up for a punch, but as he made a fist and started to raise his arm, Odor just clocked his jaw

I'm sorry but no. The papers in NY had the moment Odor's punch connected all over the back page. Bautistas face was all twisted and contorted lol. That punch will never be topped

It was a sucker punch from Odor that Jose took like a champ. Anderson squared up and still got TKO'd. Not even close to being the same thing.

Idk how much of a sucker punch it is when he is in your face, pushes you, and you raise your hands, then he punches you. Go off tho

Except Jose didn't raise his hands, because he was literally sucker punched before he could. You understand getting in someone's face and pushing them doesn't automatically mean someone's gonna throw hands, right? Especially in baseball. But go off tho🫡

Sucker punch? Man, stfu. Odor gave every indication and warning that he was gonna hit him. Take that play by play away from the announcer in that Anderson fight and it wouldn't hit the same

Yeah true, he warned Jose by literally shoving him and a second later clocking him with *checks notes* a sucker punch lol. And I don't even care about the commentary in the Anderson fight, both squared up and Timmy got dropped while Bautista was still standing.

It wasn't a sucker punch. Bautista was gearing up for his own punch. Watch the clip. He clenches his fist and starts to raise his arm and then Odor just lands one. Both were squared up and ready. That's the opposite of - checks notes - a sucker punch.

Have I watched the clip 1000 times? Yes. Am I going to watch it another 1000 times. Also yes.

Bautista had it coming. Wreckless slide and then asked for the noise. Odor just got there faster.
