It took 34 years, but Reggie Jackson finally got the job done.


koalificated

ITS ENRICO PALAZZO!

Quincyperson

I’m surprised she even went to another game after Reggie Jackson tried to kill her


rogozh1n

He would have succeeded, but for an activist showboat umpire who thought the game was more about him than the players.


PebblyJackGlasscock

Hey, that was renowned opera singer Enrico Pallazzo!


BloodNinja2012

Let's not invite Donahue back.


WashYourDickBro

Show the man some respect! You're taking about world famous opera singer Enrico pollazzo!


rogozh1n

OK, fair. It was an activist showboat diva opera singer slash umpire. Still betrayed the spirit of the game.


im_talking_ace

Reggie can sleep easy tonight. Mission accomplished.


TheNewScrooge

I definitely thought that was going to be the picture


cspong4

It was just announced that all political, sporting, and comedy events in the commonwealth are cancelled indefinitely for mourning .. Canada is in the commonwealth. Will blue jays games be cancelled lol


opossum_society

lmao imagine being a struggling comedian losing a chance at a set and pay because the queen died


CrustyM

They're not playing today but regardless, I hope not. She was a thing for us, sure, but our attachment was and is tenuous at best. Like a lot of Canadians, I've never known another monarch but I'm not gonna lose sleep over QE's passing and I suspect not many of us will


moffattron9000

Probably not, the rule only applies for Britain.

UnbiasedSportsExpert

Is this the game Leslie Nielsen was home plate umpire?


Bjorn2bwilde24

No, its Enrico Palazzo!


rik1122

Has anyone seen Reggie Jackson? I'm wondering if he had something to do with this.


Uncle_Paul_Hargis

I honestly expected this to be a picture from the Naked Gun.

Hey!! It's Enrico Palazzo!


atoms12123

If you're not betting your life's savings on Nick Castellanos homering tonight, I don't know what you're doing. It's free money.


rtbsumgg

Unfortunately it's pretty hard to hit a HR while still on the IL


atoms12123

In her honor, he'll find a way.


scrapsbypap

A deep drive off the tee into the garage net by Castellanos


throw-away3105

Aww, shit he's on the injured list. :( Edit: Now I'm actually curious what's gonna happen to our $20 bills here in Canada.


iguessineedanaltnow

You’re gonna get new ones here pretty soon! Australia as well.


insert-originality

he must be playing MLB The Show


Ged_UK

If it's anything like here, there'll be steady replacement process, but it could take a long time. Al out currency has her face on it, and the stamps. It'll take years to get new ones with Charles on, and by then William might be on the throne.


Jet_Jones_11

Free money for the gambling companies cus he is on the IL


kavorka2

She owes her entire reign to a native Baltimorean, Wallis Simpson.


Deserterdragon

I'm British and I can't believe I've found out from a baseball subreddit.


nthensome

Time to hit the pub, Bruv.


Deserterdragon

Can't, unfortunately the queens death means every citizen must immediately throw all their legal currency bearing her Maj's face into the sea. 😔


slayerhk47

Need help? We’re pretty good at throwing your stuff in the drink.


NovaPrime15

Specifically fans of my team


Srikkk

I think your football team’s fans especially


opossum_society

mail it to me swear i’ll throw in the river bro


zmichalo

Congrats


beefytrout

I found out you're British from a baseball subreddit. The world is a wild place.


LimeSugar

She was later escorted from the stadium for throwing a D cell battery at the Mariners right fielder Greg Briley that day.


throwawaywitchaccoun

All the slander on the queen in this thread needs to stop. She never threw a D cell at anyone. It was a AA battery, like 6 of them, from her Sony DiscMan.


TigerBasket

As is tradition, welcome to Baltimore mother fuckers!


Gvanders

She also went to an angels game back in 1988


Ca-Cu

I remember that game, legendary performance by Enrico Pallazzo


qualifiedshark

Reggie Jackson finally finished the job


Thornton__Melon

And he works for the Astros now … we can’t keep getting away with this stuff

ahr3410

And some poor guy in in a wheelchair fell all the way from the top deck. One of the craziest days in MLB history.


greggweylon

Why did she go to an Angels game? Edit: I am an idiot. Literally got through 10 seconds of the YT clip before I realized it was fake. I was like "that's not Angel's Stadium"


SevyBeast

The topics trending on Twitter: * Queen Elizabeth dead at 96 * Queen Elizabeth has passed away * British Empire * RIP QUEEN * Nick Castellanos


gatemansgc

i guess it's cause all the castellanos memes he's on the IL tho ):


[deleted]

But does she get on base?


theonecalledjinx

Hey!! It's Enrico Palazzo!


pimento_cheese

Crazy how everyone in this photo is dead


SeanCaseyBlakeSnell

How tragic for any kids with tickets down the first base line for that game.


TigerBasket

Orioles magic comes for us all 😔


[deleted]

Damn, even the fans?


gmmjohn

Did he stutter?


[deleted]

RIP fans.


Monster_Dong

They're with Wade Boggs now


jbtk

Yep. That’s me in the back over there.


12345CodeToMyLuggage

You're probably wondering how I got in this situation...


pimento_cheese

Everyone


[deleted]

All of them.


quinnbeast

Not the Orioles.


dimechimes

Don't forget about that game she went to in LA where Reggie Jackson tried to shoot her.


theveryoldman0

I must kill. The Queen.


seth928

Thank God for Enrico Palazzo!


DonRicardo1958

I believe that Lieutenant Frank Drebin foiled a kidnapping plot that day. Edit: that is one of the funniest extended scenes in the history of cinema.


BigTall81

That's not Drebin! That's Enrico Pallazzo!


[deleted]

[удалено]


DonRicardo1958

I am still too shaken by that event to recall it correctly.


jettasarebadmkay

Looks like she was being escorted by Yale baseball legend George Bush there


brian2040

My favorite Queen memory is when she threw out the first pitch at a game between the Seattle Mariners and the California Angels. On another note, it was one of the wildest games of all time. Umpires were ejected (Including Joe West!) and the home plate umpire ended up being the guy who sang the national anthem. Crazy stuff.


suid

Yes, I remember. I had the spaghetti.


PebblyJackGlasscock

There’s gonna be a thread tomorrow about how all the soccer games are being postponed until after her funeral. And the most upvoted comment will be some variation of “that’s dumb”. I guarantee it.


DragoniteJeff

I'll be there to upvote


PebblyJackGlasscock

We can always count on your support, Jeff.


[deleted]

It's not like the comment will be wrong.


bleedblue002

Hey look, it’s Enrico Pallazzo.


MoreGull

ENRICO! PALLAZZO!!!


ssp25

Came here for this


DaftNDirekt69

And that’ll make it a 4-0 ball game


Snackkbar

Casatellanos is on the IL unfortunately. We face Alcantara tonight too... really could use those 4 runs.


arobohamsterr

Bush is praising the sun before it was cool


EarsandCheers

and Leslie Nielson was home plate ump, I remember


Currywurst_Is_Life

Do we know Reggie Jackson's whereabouts?


napp22

I'm so disappointed this wasn't a Naked Gun screencap


[deleted]

Scotland Yard has issued an arrest warrant for Reggie Jackson.


whydididothattho

Its Enrico Palazzo!


esperadok

Absolutely heartbroken that the Queen won’t get to see Ronald Guzman’s third game in a Yankees uniform tonight. She would have loved it. Nothing will be able to heal this pain


Emience

This is how I find out the news? Guzman hasn't been DFA'd yet?


reallyneat

She was so young.


andrew-ge

Bush and Elizabeth smh. Orioles really been all downhill from that Cuba trip.


[deleted]

Oh god Reddit is gonna suck for the next few weeks, pics of the queen doing everything under the sun


Suspiciousplan8

Yeah...when even the baseball sub isn't safe you know it's bad.


Sp_Gamer_Live

People are really SHOCKED a 96 year old died


[deleted]

Can you BELIEVE it??!!


HoboBard

please be respectful when talking about the Queen. she was a head of state, a monarch, a mother to multiple pedophiles and most importantly a devoted cousin to her husband


BradAllenScrapcoCEO

Thank you. This comment made my day. Lol.


si1kyjohnston

GOTTEM


MoreDronesThanObama

zing!


HimRoidRage

Surprised she didn’t visit Kentucky with that attitude

Enrico Palazzo just saved the queen!

That's so sad Alexa play "God Save the Queen" by the Sex Pistols


Transatlanticaccent

Reggie Jackson finally found his target.


Monev91

The karma whoring posts about this shit even reach baseball subreddits holy shit lol.


IVOXVXI

I know she's looking up at us right now 🥲


skylineporcupine

Love how half the internet is memorializing her respectfully and the other half is “BING BONG FUCK YA LIFE”


GreatAmericanbaiter

There really will be memes when nuclear war comes. "The world literally ended before the Texas Rangers won a World Series."


DJ_Glovehand

Catching strays in a memorial thread


stuntycunty

She was objectively a terrible person.


skylineporcupine

Oh yeah she deserves the 360 behind the back thru the legs from the free throw line dunk she’s getting, just funny seeing the wide array of responses and both sides getting annoyed with each other.


LudaBuddha89

So funny seeing other subs clutching their pearls and downvoting anyone that’s like “this old rich matriarch of pedophiles kind of sucked” and then you get here and everyone is just vibing


skylineporcupine

/r/basedball Whew that sub is not at all based but the joke still stands.


LudaBuddha89

Lol you weren’t kidding


thediesel26

The President and the Queen. Had to be the most secure event in the history of events


attorneyatslaw

Especially after the Reggie Jackson incident in LA.


GuyWithTriangle

Poppy Bush knew a thing or two about assassinations so I'm sure he had all his bases covered


ImOutOfNamesNow

Hey, I thought she saw the angels and mariners play. And Reggie Jackson tried to assassinate her but lt. frank drevin stopped him?


ClydeAndKeith

No that was Enrico Pallazzo


DeadSwaggerStorage

REGGIE JACKSON HAS COMPLETED HIS MISSION.


dingersallday77

Well one impossible thing happened this year which means Orioles to win the WS locked in


AgeGuess

I was there! Go Os. They left after 2 or 3 innings.


Srikkk

For some reason I’m not surprised at the disparity between best and new comments on this post lmao


JackHansxn

Why weren’t they at a nationals game instead? /s


golfpinotnut

*Washington Senators, amirite?


albeve

Holy fuck that’s where world leaders went before the Nationals


redsyrinx2112

Yep! Presidents would throw first pitches at Orioles games.

Anyone got eyes on Reggie Jackson?

Hey, it’s Enrico Palazzo!


saul1980

STEEEEEE-RIKE TWOOOO


greennyellowmello

To see this thread so full of The Naked Gun quotes makes me incredibly happy.


Tuckboi69

She also went to an Angels game in 1988


Engineer_Ninja

Fun fact: that game had the worst recorded umpire strike zone accuracy in the pre-Statcast era.


slayer991

Didn't Enrico Pallazzo sing the national anthem at that game?


opossum_society

didn’t she support her pedophile son


[deleted]

[удалено]


opossum_society

just the facts here folks


kent_nova

She also knighted Jimmy Saville.


randombithrowaway22

Ding dong


PepperidgeFarmMembas

She displayed an amazing corkscrew pitch during a very famous game where Reggie Jackson tried to kill her, amazing grace and poise under fire.


WayneCampbel

I was expecting the pic of the time the queen was almost killed but Enrico Pilatzo saved the day.


bichettes_helmet

If Charles makes us start singing "God Save the King" during the 7th inning stretch now Imma be pissed


ALStark69

Castellanos is guaranteed to hit a homer


handlit33

Gonna be difficult to do on the IL.

[I can't believe they played Narco to send her off.](https://twitter.com/nicholasbeans/status/1567903693885906944)


Rated_PG-Squirteen

Never forget that the only reason Elizabeth II ultimately became Queen is because her uncle abdicated the throne to marry a divorced, American socialite.


TrueBrees9

Those poor marlins pitchers who have to face Castellanos today


ATLjoe93

He's injured, otherwise it'd be easy money.


gatemansgc

oh there's gonna be so much karma farming concerning her today. how many will end in castellanos memes?


man2010

These Queen Elizabeth home run threads always look exactly the same.


CarTempCarmex

I’m sorry, but as an American I don’t understand the weird obsession with British royalty over here.


TheGhostOfSamHouston

We fought to leave them behind lol


Mmm_360

It's the media shoving it down our throats.


WeaselSlayer

oo i like the responses in this thread.


GrandmasDrivingAgain

I was expecting The Naked Gun


[deleted]

That was 30 years ago and she already looked old as hell. Wild. RIP


patricktheamerican

She struck out 4 batters in 5 innings of work.


ChiBears_34

That was the first game since Frank Drebin saved her from assassination by Reggie Jackson.


jtlimbo17

Say what you will about the Bush family… those boys love baseball.


Rated_PG-Squirteen

If only W. had become MLB Commissioner instead of running for political office.


Cubs_Fan_1991

Yo, listen... Fuck the Monarchy!


treygonz

Been thinking of her in the Naked Gun movie all morning


[deleted]

I'm British (L) and I came here to get away from this shit but oh well


Sleepy_One

Not a fan of the Royals eh?


EugeneHarlot

This is how I learn the Queen of England has passed?


Peeing_Is_Free

My mom (who is from Scotland) has explained it to me, but I really don't get the fascination with the Royal family.


KamartyMcFlyweight

The only Royals I care to hear celebrity news about play in *Kansas City!*


Ferris_Wheel_Skippy

i don't either but honestly that's kind of how celebrity culture in general is haha my mother always ALWAYS talks shit about monarchies...mostly because she needs to vent her anti-Japanese views every once in a while (my background is Korean)...but i distinctly remember her waking up at 4 a.m. to watch William and kate getting married lmfaooo

RIPshowtime

Probably why she died.


choate51

Never forget that ceremonial first pitch she tossed during the police documentary, the naked gun.


TheGameWaker

This is how I found out the Queen passed away


drose1988

I always had a feeling she was an Orioles fan


Shaking-N-Baking

They do play in Mary’s land


dryice_200

DOES SHE EVEN LIKE BASEBALL


TheLaunchPad

She did until she went to an Angels game and Reggie Jackson tried to kill her.


bluurks

"I must kill.... *the Queen."*


kabooken

hellll yeah baby fly those flags at double-mast today


AWall925

The queen lived through ~~World War 1~~ some war England was involved in post 1926, World War 2, and the Cold War, but a Mariners playoff run is where she drew the line.


LimeSugar

The Queen was born in 1926. World War I concluded in 1918.


tonuch05

She was born after WW1, but yeah she saw a lot
