tough break for that dirty jap yu darvish he should probably kill himself losing his perfect game

This Week in Racism ...

Even discounted for his putrid opponent, Yu Darvish pitched one of the best games in Rangers history last night, setting down 26 straight Astros before yielding a grounder up the middle with two outs in the ninth. The performance lit up Twitter, mostly with adulation but also with some Grade A racism.

Let's bask in the ugliness of our fellow man, shall we?

Wish I could throw the ball like Yu Darvish, little Jap is going for that perfect game — Vincenzo LaCava (@Vincenzo_LaCava) April 3, 2013

All Yu Darvish needed was a year settle in the MLB, now he's a monster. His physical statue is rare for a Jap. Rangers payed ALOT for him. — Kyle Moule (@KyleMoule) April 3, 2013

Yu blew the perfect game in the 9th with two outs. #ImNotSurprised #Jap — Jon Basler (@TheRealJBazz) April 3, 2013

This will be the only time I root for a chink or jap or whatever the hell he is. #Yu — Ian Miller (@IanMiller42) April 3, 2013

Ian brings up an excellent point. Some people probably don't realize that Darvish is Japanese and, being racist morons, assume he's Chinese. Let's check in with this special brand of racist.
