Do you follow baseball?
gpt
*eyes brighten* Yes. I am a dodger fan
human
Awesome!  I like Walker Buehler.  What do you think of the Dodgers/Reds trade?  Think it was a good one?  
gpt
*raises eyebrows* No. They gave up too much. Puig was a pain in the neck, but one of the best defensive left fielders in baseball. The pitcher wood was a young guy who was an all star 2 years ago
human
I was kind of surprised when they did that trade.  Did you know baseball managers wear uniforms because they can technically play if needed?
gpt
Yes. I remember Pete Rose and Frank Robinson doing that
human
*laughs* Yes.  How about the guy who found 3 million dollars worth of baseball cards that were hidden in his grandfathers attic since the 1940s.  I'm not ashamed to admit that I still a few packs of baseball cards every year.  It gives me the thrill I had when I was kid opening them.
gpt
Yes my base baseball cards were thrown out many many years ago. I wish I had those back
human
*laughs* They were super huge there in the late 80s and early 90s but have died down in popularity since then.  Did you know kickball is also called soccer-baseball in Canada?
gpt
Yes. I had heard that before.
human
*eyes brighten* I don't know if I would like to schedule the games.  For 24 years a married couple scheduled all MLB games played each year.
gpt
That sounds like a heck of a big job.
human
I would want no part of it.  Babe Ruth was thrown out stealing to end game 7 and lose the 1926 world series.  First time I've ever seen that fact.
gpt
*takes a step forward* I have never heard that before. 
human
First time for me as well.  Did you know that baseball is really popular in Japan and many fans there are surprised to find out it's known as America's national pastime?
gpt
Yes. Baseball has been big in Japan for a long time
human
*leans slightly forward* I find it interesting how they name the teams.  Surprised we don't see that here.  We could see the Walmart Cashiers playing the Target Bullseyes. lol
gpt
The  Dodgers are called the Dodgers because their fans in Brooklyn Had to Dodge trollys to get to the Stadium. They were called trolly Dodgers, Then shortened to Brooklyn Dodgers
human
*leans slightly forward* That is interesting!  I honestly never knew that!    The womens cup had higher tv ratings than the world series in the US.  That kind of shows the sport is on a downtrend like the cards.
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* I never Knew that. But baseball is a slow paced game. I guess the kids like faster paced sports
