WHAT CAME OUT IN X BY LUIS ARRÁEZ
There was a Twitter user who even wished the worst to the San Diego Padres organization for having given the man from Yaracuya a rest. However, journalists who cover the religious say that the Venezuelan had nothing to do with this decision.
And in typical poor form, @Parents sat Luis Arraez today so he wouldn’t risk lowering his BA and keeping Ohtani from winning the triple crown. @Parents are a low class organization. God I hope they lose their WC matchup.

There is another group of posts on the social network X, formerly Twitter, that really cannot be translated, due to the high volatility of the words. The problem is that Shohei Ohtani He is at .310 ee average and can win the Triple Crown in the National League.

Be that as it may, the truth of the matter is that the batting title will be defined this Sunday between Ohtani and Arráez, both designated hitters on their respective teams.
Luis Arráez, if he remains the batting leader, would be the first player in history to win the title three years in a row with three different teams. If, for his part, Shohei Ohtani, who hits .310, does it, we would be in the presence of the first triple crown of the National League in 87 years.
