24 scoreless innings. If you don’t think that’s a choke then you are really delusional. The moment they lost Game 5 all their efforts went down the drain. There are no participation trophies in this game gentlemen. There is no crying in baseball.
The fact that they talked so much crap, and all their antic, and premature celebrating emphasizes THE CHOKE! 24 scoreless innings!!! 👊🏽
100% a choke job Ben. They had momentum going into game 4, they had the opposing manager trying anything and everything to motivate his team. And then they didn't score again. This will be the new definition of a choke job in the dictionary.
Saying they didn’t choke is such a MASSIVE cope. Embarrassing take
Their paychecks come from the padres of course they will sugar coat everything lol
The dodgers were favored and the better team, that's not a choke
M'fers are doing mental gymnastics to Nth degree
@@brando7266Every "expert" picked the Padres. Every. Single. One. And they were peacocking with a 2-1 lead ... then stiffened under the pressure and got destroyed by the Dodgers, who gutted it out and kept their composure.
That's a total choke job by the Padres.
@@michaelmanous7567 Vegas had the dodgers, u r a dummy,
Dodgers lose their entire starting pitching staff ....still win the division. These guys call it a successful season. It's like little league .....participation award. Win the division ....if WC format didn't happen, Pads not in the playoffs the last decade. And btw ...it was a choke. After the season, everyone does a reset and looks at the playoff roster, momentum, etc. The Pads were picked by most "experts" to beat the Dodgers (cause of all the pitching injuries). 2 straight shutouts to end the series (with a bullpen game) is a choke.
The dodgers were favored to win the series, Google it
The Padres have the same problem like the Yankees, including their sports reporters. PRIDE!!!. GO Dodgers! Aloha from Hawaii
The answer is simple. Dodgers has been and always will be the superior team. Padres choked. They froze up. It was beautiful seeing steroid boy (Tatis) be the final out of the game.
This was 100% a choke
- up 2-1 in the series with game 4 at homer
- Up 6-1 in game 3
- they neutralized Ohtani
- Freddie Freeman playing injured
- Dodgers best pitchers injured
If this isn’t a choke than the alternative answer is even worst
They choke period saying other wise is nonsense. They had 2-1 at home at they not only lost; they were shut down for 23 inings, dear God. Schildt panic and the players were celebrating before wining anything. Those black holes of Profar, Bogarts and Cronenworth in the lineup sank the ship.
Yes, they CHOKED. Absolutely they choked. The next time a Padres fan tells me the Dodgers always 'choke' I can now laugh.
Well to be fair, the Padres have choked only one time, the daughters choke every time
Just say 2024😅😅😅
As a dodgers fan living in San Diego watching talking heads discuss if they "choked" or not is the type of content that is feeding my soul. However u wanna spin it, 24 scoreless innings is definitely in the choking spectrum. Might not be top 3 but definitely top 5. This coping conversation is amazing. 😢😢😢😂😂😂 #SDChokers
As a Padres fan, I can't agree more! We absolutely choked! To even question that is insanity. So much could have been done differently at the plate.
What are you doing in San Diego then? Go back to that shithole in LA and leave us alone, you clown. I hope the Mets knock you out or the Yankees finish the job. You guys are insufferable.
Fuck LA, fuck Angelenos, and fuck your team too.
they did quit just the last two games. the reason this feels like a disappointment it’s because we know dodgers were weak and injured. next year they are gonna have goslin, sho, ryan, mr glass, flattery, may maybe kershaw
this was the year we had a window, dodgers don’t give many windows of opportunities
How is it not a choke losing to a team with 7 starting pitchers on the IL, their all star 1st baseman on one leg, up 2-1 with a close out game at home and going 24 innings without a run? They essentially got beat down by a bullpen cause all three starters apart from game 5 were getting lit up
Yes. Quick answer. “We own Yamamoto and the Dodgers.”-Padre team and fan base.👀
They had the best team on the ropes needing just one win to advance. They choked. You don’t have to spin it
San Diego is in shambles
It was a choke. But let’s address the elephant in the room, when the Dodgers choked their core team leaders didn’t display the lack of character that Manny, Profar, and Tatis did. Manny tries to act like a leader, but his lesser self always seems to prevail; Profar acted like a Tatis knockoff taunting the fans; and Tatis really needed a pole for his lude, insolent gyrations in rightfield. The San Diego fanbase deserves better, mlb deserves better.
The Padres choke…. they were the favorites to win. They were picked to go to the WS….Every MLB expert picked him to win. That’s a choke…
They Choked again yes. Next question.
To me the definition of choking has nothing to do with how favored a team is to win. It’s when a team or player is one game or one out away from winning the series and fails to do so. So yes, if you ask me, the Padres choked.
Chocked.. Could have closed at home. Up 2-1 to the Dodgers without scoring in the next 2 games is the equivalent to ATL 28 vs NE 3
Masterclass choke job! They celebrated too much Game 3 as if they had won the series.
You guys just hate the dodgers
Padres choked like they’ve choked every years since 1969 which is why they have an empty trophy case 😂😂😂 but hearing these three 🐈 lie to themselves about the padres choking is hilarious, coping is fucking wild with padres fans 😂😂😂 who remembers what Tatis said “it doesn’t matter who we play, because we’re gonna win it all” at loser fest 23? I do 😂😂😂 how’s that working out? 😂😂😂
Why ya gotta make it personal
The problem is they celebrate too early all the time. Last series against the Dodgers regular season they clinched a playoff spot then lost the next two games to them. Up 2/1 to the Dodgers then didn't score against the bullpen and a starter who isn't that good. Pressure got them and they celebrated too early.
Am I the only Padres fan who wasn't impressed by what I saw from the Braves series? I was concerned then, but became even more concerned when Joe went down
Oh please! The Padres were the team no one wanted to play in the playoffs. They choked. I can't believe Ben didn't 'choke' on his words. I haven't seen such fast foot work and dancing around since Fred Astaire. After Game 3 all the Padres fans were preparing for the NLCS.
Yes, it's an embarrassing choke.
No other way to spell it.
Padres CHOKED hard! They choked on their arrogance.
Padres were absolutely favorites in the series, had a LEAD in the series, and lost. That is a textbook choke job.
Season Done padres disrespected the baseball gods with their disgraceful taunting, karma caught up and they went scoreless for 24 innings to lose the series…
THAT’S WHATS IN!! Yeah THAT’s WHATS IN!!
What changed? They got too full of themselves and thought they were far superior to the Dodgers. Prematurely.
Yes, they absolutely choked. Over 80% (if not more) of all baseball/sports shows on TV plus the majority of all baseball podcast shows not only picked the Padres to beat the Dodgers but to win it all. No on gave the Dodgers even half a chance. And if they didn't pick the Padres, it was the Phillies.
They didn’t quit but they definitely choked. Your hitting needs to adapt to the pitching. If they are pitching off the plate all the time which they were, you CLEARLY need to let them walk you. That’s how you force those pitchers to throw more favorable pitches. The padres were swinging most of the pitches. Manny is the prime example. They knew exactly how to pitch to him which was outside the plate. Manny absolutely had multiple chances to realize this and should have taken the walk instead of swinging. That’s called small ball. Walking can change the whole spectrum of the pitcher to batter and they never used that as an option at least in those two games. They definitely used it in the regular season though. Thats changing your offensive fundamentals which is the REAL reason why they lost
I Hope PADRES will get 98-64 .605 1st NL CHAMPIONS in 2025
Since 1998 PADRES with Former PADRES Manager 15 Bruce bochy.
Semantics are running wild on this video lol
Needing just a couple runs and not getting any in two games, getting shut out alone with one of the best Run Differentials. Is 100% a choke. If they got swept. No not a choke but all they needed was a couple runs.
I want PADRES to Hire BenJl Gil in 2025 He want to be a New Bench Coach and Manager For PADRES
How were the Dodgers favored? Almost all their starting pitchers are on the IL, Pads beat them relentlessly all year. Pads had their balls in a vice grip by game 3 and then they totally stopped scoring for 24 innings... That's a choke. No debate needed.
Ben doing everything he can to slide a positive take. Dude, you can be critical. You have to praise them but you also have to bury them.
The offense stopped in Game 4. In Game 1, 4 and 5 the offense stopped.
They chargered it
Please PADRES it time to Bring back 1998 PADRES Blue Jersey And 1991 Navy Hat in 2025 Now
I burnt mu Padres jersey and ordered a Dodgers jersey online. Im done wearing poop colored jersey and losing like this.
U r full of crap, no real padre fan would do that,
@@brando7266Poop jersey ... full of crap ... lolol
Yes. The very definition of choked! 😭
They choked ATM
azz 2 mouth
Yes, they choke. Ask Manny
Ben needs to go live and admit they choked lol !
Sorry boys no more games for you .56 years, still ring less....EL CHOKO...
the way the padres were acting on top of their play is the definition of a choke.
They choked. Period
A majority of mlb experts picked the Padres over the Dodgers. In what world was the sentiment the opposite? Padres had a better team from top to bottom (mainly based on how injured the dodgers were). Where is all the talk about them being the underdogs? I don't remember seeing that.
That wasn't a choke they gave up & gave the game. Yo is swear it's like someone is paying them to throw the games.
That someone is named Vegas.
Vegas always wins. 😎
And that someone named Vegas has a secret major player who has his interpreters place bets for him and his name rhymes with oh hey oh mami
@@emmanuelgarcia619 And he arranged it for the Padres to lie down like dogs? So powerful is our Ohtani-san.
@@michaelmanous7567 well I did hear on Fox News that Padre players received notes written in Japanese with names of their children’s schools instructing them to throw the game. I’m not saying it’s true but that’s what I heard. And now that shohei is in LA hanging out with liberal Hollywood elites I wouldn’t put it past him. Allegedly
In the past two games, the Dodgers effectively demonstrated their strong pitching abilities, which played a significant role in containing the opposing team's formidable hitting prowess.
My guy the Dodgers literally just left the Mets scoreless. Trust me, it was the PITCHING.
How stupid are these guys? Why can't you just give credit to the Dodger bullpen they made the Madres look silly
RIP SD Homers!!😃
It time to Fired the General Manager AJ Preller Now He Suck Get rid of Him Always Pitching can’t do Nothing like trade Good Hitters
We want PADRES to Hire Jake Peavy He want to be a New General Manager of PADRES 2025
Replace AJ Preller Now
The Dodgers figured out how to pull the Padres plug. No power at all for 20+ innings. They didn’t choke, their battery died
Simple: Dodgers were able to handle business professionally!
It doesnt count as a choke because the padres are NEVER expected to win
Most people picked the Padres to beat the Dodgers in the playoffs
I think Dodgers are “professional” in how they play. Too buttoned up. Lack of fire. It took the Padres to get it out of them.
Padres choke big time. The series they won was against a depleted ATL team that just played a double header and had to immediately fly cross country. They were the best team after the All-star break. They lost to an LA team with a journeyman pitcher and Yamamoto coming off an injury
There was no choke...They strangled themselves
Heart of the lineup choked except Tatis. Hopefully padres can find a way to unload Cronenworth-less. Cant hide him anymore in this lineup. Although Cease blew chunks our SP and bullpen pitched well enough to win this series.
Tatis choked, too.
The amount of copium and hypocrisy in this conversation is astounding - the padres 100% were the more complete team and the absolutely choked this year (and last year).
Give me a break they didn't chock they acted like they won the series after the 3rd game. The baseball god put it to them because of the way they acted in the 3rd game. In the end they got what they deserved.
Big time CHOKE 😂 Where's Carmen san Diego 😢
It’s the San Diego curse looks pretty but no trophy 😢😢😢😢😢😢
This is embarrassing THEY CHOKED and the Padres were the favorites what idiots
Don’t choke okay 😢😢😢
Pathetic hearing dweebs trying to cope so hard...
1. Every media personality (who wasn't a dodger) picked the Padres to win the series
2. The Dodgers had no pitching according to everyone. More than 7 pitchers out.
3. They beat up the dodgers in their head to head this 2024
4. Up 2-1 and playing at home to close it out... and didn't do it
5. Didn't get a single hit 24 straight innings, which is new MLB record.
This is a choke job, period, no matter how you spin it.
Oh by the way Dodgers win their 2nd WS trophy... the Madres have another participation trophy celebrating a wild card entry. That's it!
Maybe they didnt choke, but they did shat the bed.
The cope is strong with the dude wearing glasses
THEY CHOCKED…
A choke is a choke. Sorry glasses dude.
Disagree, they choked. The series was in their hands, offense caught the flu.You need more coffee Ben.
Cease choked,
cope harder 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes.
It’s the big brother advantage. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I don’t think it matters one way or another they just lost. Why do you wanna make it worse?
Yes, Yes, 😅
Wow still can’t admit it 😂
The Padres suck
"Look at it from my perspective "
his perspective:
"we won the games that mattered to me" 😂😂😂
Lost to the #1 seed
PadreS
Guy in the middle is in Denial.
They choked.
No, the Padres did not choke. They had a period where the bats weren't there. Choking is the Dodgers up 13 game in August 1951 and having to play a playoff game with the Giants, losing that.
Big players show up in big games and moments. The fact that the bats “weren’t there” for two entire critical do or die games is them absolutely choking. They fell under the pressure
It has been proven that the Giants cheated "Asstros" style down the stretch in '51. The whole "shot heard round the world" thing no longer holds any weight with me.
They absolutely choked. They were ahead in the series, favored to win, then crumbled. Classic choke job.
I want PADRES Sign Free Agents 2025
Please PADRES resign Tommy Kahnle Anthony Rizzo ALEX Verdugo Clay Holemes resign Juan Soto send to PADRES 2025
From New York Yankees
Not after the Mets getting shutout 9 innings
Simple solution for PS patch….
What’s that
So much cope 😂😂😂
The Padres lost because MLB rigged the series. Well, at least that's what many Padre fans across the internet have said. 🤷♂️
LMAO
😂
hahahahhaha😂😂😂😂
Dodgers Padres is the new best rivalry in MLB. You don't beat your rival in the playoffs? Ya choked
Google 2022,
@@brando7266 That was 2 years ago. The past.
@@F1Fanatic76 that counts Chico, so does 2020, when the dodgers beat us,
No choke. SD lost to arguably the best team in baseball. How is that a choke? Good pitching I say.
If not a choke, then just admit that the Padres aren't in the Dodgers' league, and I will go along with that. Admit it!
The Dodgers were decimated by injuries and were not favored by "experts" to win the series. SD was favored and was leading the series only needing one more win. Then they didn't score a single run the next two games. CHOKED.
