Last year's World Series left a memorable mark on Dodgers fans, who favored stickers over traditional memorabilia. These stickers replicated the Fox Sports scoreboard during a critical moment, capturing the Yankees' poor performance. In contrast to their loss, Yankee players reflected on their mistakes, acknowledging the Dodgers' scouting insights. The mix of celebration and acknowledgment of sportsmanship highlights the evolving dynamics in baseball, where both leagues' self-promotion and scrutiny coexist.
You cannot glorify bat flips, as Major League Baseball itself does these days, and you cannot encourage players to market themselves...without running the risk of what the old-fashioned...might call poor sportsmanship.
The way I personally look at it is, when you go out and you are on the right side of the victory, you've got a leg to stand on...When you lose, you ain't got much to say.
