Why New York Yankees Fans Say They “Shouldn’t Win”
The World Series is not looking good for New York right now.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have been stomping the New York Yankees so far in the 2024 World Series. After Game 3, the Dodgers have a 3-0 lead in the series, and it’s no surprise at this point.
In fact, tons of New York Yankees fans are saying that the team “doesn’t deserve to win’ at all after some selections made for Game 3.
You may remember the pregame performance for Game 2, as selected by the Los Angeles Dodgers. The “West Coast Legend” Ice Cube got the crowd hyped in Los Angeles before the game, and the team went on to win the game.
You can watch that performance below.
Dodgers fans were nodding along with Ice Cube, feeling the energy of his music. However, the same cannot be said for Yankees fans in New York for Game 3, with many people calling the pregame performance "subpar."
Fat Joe was selected to perform “All The Way Up” ahead of the Dodgers vs. Yankees Game 3, and it was a performance to remember…but not in a good way.
While the crowd was bopping along to the song (eventually), Fat Joe didn’t really seem too into the singing portion of the performance. Though he did give a few “Let’s go Yankees,” many fans were not impressed.
One critic wrote, “How do you do bad karaoke on your own songs?” Another Yankees fan took to X, sharing a video that called for whoever booked Fat Joe to be fired.
“We don’t even deserve to win after that performance,” the X user wrote.
It could’ve just been a bad game…maybe we shouldn’t blame Fat Joe for the New York Yankees performance. After all, they have played 3 games in the series and New York trails 0-3.
All of that could change in Game 4, and the first pitch for tonight is at 8:08 PM in Yankee Stadium.
