Pete Crow-Armstrong’s latest remarks have ignited a fanbase rivalry and turned the spotlight squarely on the Los Angeles Dodgers—a little over a month before Opening Day 2026.
In a feature that produced a now-viral quote, the young Chicago Cubs center fielder didn’t hold back when comparing fan passion in Chicago to what he sees from Dodgers fans.
His bold, NSFW comments instantly sparked league-wide debate and put one of baseball’s biggest brands on the defensive.
The Talkin’ Baseball podcast soon brought the remarks to wider attention on X (formerly known as Twitter), pushing the feud squarely into national view on Monday.
The popular baseball show shared the comments originally captured by Chicago Magazine’s Wayne Drehs, posting a graphic of the quote in which he shared what he believed set Cubs and Dodgers fans apart, using colorful language to emphasize that Cubs fans are fully locked in on every pitch while many in Los Angeles seem more focused on the experience than the actual game.
“(Cubs fans) give a shit. They aren’t just baseball fans who go to the game like Dodgers fans to take pictures. They are paying attention.”
