Twitter roasts Bob Costas for embarrassing error in Game 5

Wednesday October 19, 2022

During his first complete MLB postseason series in 22 years, Bob Costas has received a lot of flak. At one point during Game 5 between the Guardians and the Yankees, Costas appeared to imply that New York did not win the World Series in 2009.

In fact, it was the last time they won everything in 2009.

After the break, the veteran sportscaster apologized for the mistake, but that didn’t stop people on social media from criticizing him for it.

Did Bob Costas just say the Yankees didn't win the World Series in 2009?

So Bob Costas doesn’t know the Yankees won the World Series in 2009

“Bob Costas just said the Yankees haven’t won a World Series since they three-peated in 2000 … congrats to the Phillies who have apparently retroactively won the 2009 WS against the Yankees,” said Cubs beat writer Meghan Montemurro.

Costas is now going to spend the rest of the game trying to prove he knows everything there is to know about the 2009 World Series.

Not the best return for the person who has won 28 Emmys.
