Bob Costas thinks Justin Bieber is pitching in MLB Playoffs: Best memes and Tweets
Bob Costas #BobCostas
Bob Costas made the mistake we’ve all been waiting for, calling Shane Bieber Justin Bieber in Game 2 of the ALDS. These are the best social reactions.
At first, you almost couldn’t believe it. You had to think that you heard Bob Costas wrong when he said “Justin Bieber.”
Then, he said it again. And you still second guess yourself and think, “is Bob Costas right? He said it. Maybe his name is Justin and I’m the dumb one?”
But no, Bob Costas did, in fact, mix up Cleveland Guardians pitcher Shane Bieber and pop star Justin Bieber in the 6th inning of Game 2 of the ALDS game between the Guardians and New York Yankees.
Lauren Shehadi challenged Costas and his color-commentating partner, Ron Darling, to name some Bieber songs and hilarity ensued.
Darling named, “Yummy” with almost no wait time. Bob Costas said he was… Sorry (a name of a Bieber song) about the mix-up.
As if that wasn’t funny enough, Twitter gave us some awesome social reaction.
Some suggested it was time for Costas to retire. I say he’s just getting started.
Yes, more.
What kind of fan do we think Costas is? Maybe a little more club-oriented?
Some fans hated it. Here’s some advice if you’re like this guy: Try enjoying life once in a while. Maybe he’s still mad about the strike zone.
