**I confess, I’m a Manny apologist.**
When Manny Machado made his return to Baltimore, pundits everywhere made their unsolicited opinions public. They talked about how he’d be booed, ridiculed, you name it. They’re desperate to make him the bad guy. Of course, that’s not the reaction fans gave the man who would have spent his entire career in Baltimore if they’d let him.
Jokers like @spotswcoleman (Basically should be renamed “not the real Jerry Coleman) booed Manny while the rest of the fan base gave him a standing ovation. One of the largest crowds of the year for the Orioles showed up to pay their respects.
