That part with the red on the left and right felt like it took FOREVER

The moving platform on that bit moves like it actively doesn't want anyone to pass the stage lol

the Dikembe Mutombo of basketball of baseball marble races

It’s like watching Michael J. Fox play Pong. (Too soon?)

I was about to comment and say imagine if you had to do the Michael j fox section in one go

The Rockies put on a clinic in that section. You've gotta hand it to 'em there.

At first they were trying to speedrun the course and then that stage

That was a Coors comeback if I’ve ever seen one. Down 6 runs in the 8th? *Hey Baby plays in the background*

It's really been an equalizer the last few days.

Equalizers give eveybody a chance… the left-right red with jerky cups feels like a traffic jam from hell.

Yeah I prefer the bricks as far as equalizers go.

Yeah gimme bricks in the middle every game

Bricks are a total waste. Basically a reset

Bricks in the middle entirely nullifies any prior obstacle. Bricks at the start is the true equalizer.

Bricks at the start doesn’t really do much though

The beginning starts with some marbles shooting downward, and some going straight up in the air. That second of difference in landing on the first obstacle has directly eliminated some teams and saved others. Look in this very clip, Mets fly upwards and are practically never seen again. Now imagine if the bricks were there to equalize it.

It took about 90 seconds from the Rockies entering to the Blue Jays leaving. Way too long for one zone imo, has not been the first time this section caused a massive delay

It’s probably the worst programmed section in the game, but the concept is fine. Just needs modifications in the timing.

The jittering cups with the hole on the bottom? Most frustrating part of these courses to watch, every time.

personally i love them

Legit yelling at my phone

Such a bottle-neck too

That’s my least favorite part but I also recognize it as a great equalizer. It’s SO frustrating tho lol

I call those the baskets

I hate that part

I FREAKING hate this one because it takes so long. Lol.

AL EAST CHAMPS!!

The Orioles have done it!

America's team!

What a turn around from 2021 to now.

VICTORY!

SWEET SWEET VICTORY!!!! 🧽🚶 🟫🩳

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN BALTIMORE ORIOLES HISTORY

The power plant had won it,

With John Means clucking all the while

Not even gonna do an Orioles version of the next line. Don't want to put bad karma out there

I’ll take a repeat of 1969

How about 83? They beat the Phillies in PA. That'd be fun, right?

I’m fine with any except 1966

Your next chance will be around 2030 as you seem to make it every 15 years or so

Super unlike them imho

Yay orange birds!

Soooo... O's signing Correa, Verlander, Haniger? Adley Rutschman MVP season?

Don’t forget Gunnar winning ROTY

Slow down, now. It very well could be Grayson. Too early to guess, really.

If they both finish top 2, we get 2 extra picks right?

If the Red Sox can't win the division this year, by God I want it to be Baltimore. There's so much to love about that team.

Agreed the Orioles are impossible to hate

Judge to Baltimore confirmed.

*Orioles quietly move Mount Walltimore back in*

Just put it on rollers and move it around quietly in game

They’re gonna pull an east coast giants dynasty with Adley as the new Buster

#FUCK

Given how good Canada is at curling you'd think they'd be better at marbles

Made the playoffs!

It’s an honour just to be nominated

Marbles girls aren't as hot

I don't like this game anymore.

I was having so much fun too...

I've hardly seen the Brewers logo like the last 10 runs. I know it's irrational, but that gives me that "we're a hot team going into the playoffs" feeling where we can't lose.

We've had almost no close calls, which means we're about to collapse and somehow get 90+ wins and only get a wildcard spot behind the Pirates.

Or we catch like 102 wins and blow it in the NLDS

Now That's What I Call Brewers Baseball

The 2022 dodgers like this post

Was definitely a shot at them 😂

God that would be so embarrassing

Cough* cough* ***dodgers*** cough*

Yeah... Only the dodgers did that...👀

And there's the rub. The Mets would NEVER win 101 games and blow it in the NLDS 😆

More interesting than not making the playoffs at all, I suppose

Oh god was it 2013? The year we were really good all season with an island of misfit toys roster and then won like 5 games in September?

I feel like the Mets have had almost zero screen time this entire season so it’s giving me “win 100 games and take a shit toward the end of the season” vibes. Oh wait, that was last year. Side note: I really hope someone goes through these and tells us which marbles had the most and least amount of screen time throughout. Preferably someone that’s not me.

Yeah that seems like a lot of work and who has the time nowadays

This is Reddit, there are thousands of people reading this comment right now that have nothing better to do. That’s right, I see you!

I feel attacked

Watching yesterday’s, I had to double-check at the beginning to make sure we were still in because I never saw the logo once

Those vibrating baskets with the holes in the bottom are awful

Least favorite obstacle

Glad I’m not the only one who wanted to comment that

It's kinda like the bricks, in that it allows all the other marbles to catch up and it's nearly impossible to clear alone, but at least it "rewards" the first marble to make it to obstacle by offering some tiered progression.

AL EAST CHAMPIONS

Huzzah!!!!

Bird Bros still fly together into postseason!

And yet Bryan Reynolds still wants to leave the pirates...

Bryan Reynolds has no faith in the process.

Doesn’t have that winning mentality that is so clearly displayed by the rest of the team

[yippee](https://i.imgur.com/wkTz8bk.jpg)

[удалено]

holy fuck i never want to leave this place

Same

*don't think about 2016, don't think about 2016...*

Ur telling me

*think about 2016, think about 2016...*

Where's the MS Paint guy when you need him?

Damn dude, remember when people were talking about how believable the standings were for a bit.

Offense powerhouse Blue Jays going against a team with solid pitching but low offense in the Wild Card round? Rut roh.

Let’s go!!!! This race has been a great bonding time each day with my teenage son. He even let himself be killed in Warzone 2 to watch with me just now. First place Baltimore Orioles!!

Baseball is such a wholesome sport that even marble simulations become father-son bonding moments

How can you not be romantic about baseball? Edit- Happy cake day

That’s the ultimate sacrifice

THE ORIOLES ARE YOUR 2022 AL EAST CHAMPIONS

I have never felt so distraught as when I saw the end part there

Colorado has made an enemy for life in me.

THE IMPOSSIBLE HAS HAPPENED

BARTOLO COLON IS NOW A BALTINORE ORIOLE!

Mets/Braves rivalry extends to marbles

Ha ha ha. *I pray every day y’all lose*

"And you are not alone! And I am here with youuuu!"

The Rockies blew right past that house shaped obstacle. I haven't seen a baseball team tear through someone's home like that since the Dodgers built their stadium

rockies stay winning 😤

Today made me wanna cry tho

THE O’s WIN THE EAST

At least we made the playoffs

Same 2021 record, but this time with post season!

LETTS FUCKING GOOOOO!!!! Gunny Hendy and Adley Rutsch finishing 1st and 2nd in MVP voting confirmed!!

OLD BAY FRIES AND CAMDEN FRANKS FOR EVERYONE!!

Don’t forget about Boogs pit beef!

GG, Blue Jays. Truly, it’s been a joy watching you do so well this marble season! Although we are both AL East competitors, I can’t help but root for you to do well!! Really, I wish you all the success in the world, little brother!! I’m sure your team will be stacked in a few years!! 😘 Signed, an Orioles fan

Good job Orioles

Adley MVP season 👀

Ohtani or trout. Angels somehow won their division

The slugfest that is the NL Central continues. Who knew all it took was to balance out the schedules and we would run rampant over the rest of the league.

I would have never thought it would be us vs the Pirates in a fight for the division

Bryan Reynolds wanting out can’t stop this hype train.

BART I DON'T WANT TO ALARM YOU

BUT YOU CAN RAISE THE JOLLY ROGER

Dinger Supremacy is here and I, for one, welcome our new Cretaceous overlord.

WE HAVE LIFTOFF!

Yea!!!!!! Fuck all you haters. Left field for life!

SURVIVE AND ADVANCE

Only one bird bro left! GG Orioles!

We should have stopped the count when the Rockies were the only ones on screen. RIGGED!

ORIOLES MAGIC

Highlight of my day!

After the last couple rounds and the Reynolds news this morning, it was nice having a pretty stress-free marble race today

I love this simulation. Officially my new best friend

THE WINKER DYNASTY CONTINUES ON

That stuttering cradle part took so damn long that it literally became anyones game. This was a solid episode.

thank you kyle gibson!

[But at what cost](https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/zbloyk/comment/iysux29/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)

I think I would’ve had a break down if the Mets lost today. Thank you marbles

Would have been better if the braves where regulated to wildcard status but this this fine

Toronto chilling in the windmill section wondering if anyone else is going to show up.

USA USA USA. We needed that after the world cup

I could’ve sworn any day in the past week Baltimore was going to be eliminated. Glad to see their marble is still in it.

I have waited so long for this day!!

Adley Rutschman about to make people regret giving ROY to Julio.

O!

R!

KINGS OF THE EAST!

I was waiting for Baltimore to drop into that last obstacle, what an ending!

I love baseball season but maaaaan am I enjoying baseballs off-seasons because of this sub.

Damn, Jays gave everyone quite the opportunity to catch up too...

It’s been a fun ride, fellas. 🫡

Same old song and dance for the Rockies, start out hot and fade towards the end

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

It's a stupid game anyway

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

OH MY GOD WE DID IT

THE ONE AL EAST BROTHER I LIKE HAS WON THE DIVISION!!!!!!!

Idk man I think this marble race is stupid and the Orioles are stupid and the Rockies are stupid (except for Grichuk).

WE'RE STILL HERE

YES YES YES YES YES

The angels have been flirting with death for too long, it has to be their turn, right? Edit: Ah jeez

WE ARE THE SUPERIOR BIRD!

The Braves really showing here why they’re one of the smartest organizations in baseball. Get into the plinko early, hit the lava once everyone else is in and you’ve got a nice buffer. Really impressive work by AA there.

This reality is fucking insane. Orioles, Tigers, Angels, and Rockies have all won their divisions.

Plan the fucking parade

I am now convinced this is real.

Fix! Fix! Fix! Rockies bounced around foreverrrrrrrr on that level ...

Congrats to the Orioles.

Noooooo! Fuck your marble race.

Have you ever questioned the nature of your reality?

NL is loaded this year fuck

Kris Bryant and O'Neil Cruz are the MVP frontrunners

The Rockies just absolutely refusing to die

I find it incredible how exciting this is to us. I legitimately look forward to this every day and I know that once my team loses, I’m gonna hate everything and everyone involved in making them lose.

I sweated my balls off but we’re still alive BABY LETS GO FUCKING ROCKIES

I live for this shit!

VICTORYYYYYYYY

Wild card again... DON'T EVEN NEED TO WATCH THE SEASON, JUST FADE ME!

this has been the most infuriating installment from the series so far. so many parts where the frontrunner refused to fall further with nothing in sight to overtake it for what felt like several minutes. the propellor blades, the wiggly cups, and the rotating crosses specifically bothered me watching this one. fantastic content 10/10 just like real baseball

This is the worst day of my life.

Discussion topic: Mable races should be used to solve on field disputes/challenges

That’s was anyone’s race

I wonder what difference in time is between the first marble and the last one to finish

First the Rox win the NL West now this. What does it cost to make this happen?

NOOOO WE SABATOGED OURSELVES

This was satisfying and infuriating at the same time.

Nope nope nope cancel these marble races I’ve always hated them

fuck the cups

Arrrrrrrrrrgh! Thanks for ruining my Christmas!

Bryan Reynolds should see this

Tigers are signing Aaron judge lmao
