And you can come at me all you want about the superficiality of sport, but this is meaningful to me. This is so meaningful to me.

One more win.

Go Jays Go.

I am weeping right now. I’m so happy. I can’t believe what we are witnessing.

There is so so so much darkness in the world, and feelings like this truly give me pause and the chance to realize that there are moments of joy still to be had.

The Dodgers told me Yesavage keeps striking out their batters so I asked how many batters they have and they said they just go to the dugout and get a new batter afterwards so I said it sounds like they're just feeding batters to Yesavage and then Jason Bateman started crying.

Where were you when you saw 22-year old rookie Trey Yesavage dogwalk the Dodgers in the World Series?

I can’t believe we’re witnessing this. We are all so lucky.

Absolutely. Trey Yesavage.

Ump needs to say "after review, he was tagged on the dick and balls, the runner is out, call on the field stands"

Should be wearing a Greinke jersey as a show of solidarity between guys who got a 9-figure deal in LA after abandoning the Royals

All of this. The thing I remember most about 92-93, and what I’m enjoying so much about this run, is that EVERYONE was talking about it and EVERYONE was excited and enjoying it. Seeing that happen again is so great. When sports are good, they’re so good. Let the people experience that joy. 💙⚾️

People who complain about bandwagoners just aren’t having enough fun. I love baseball and all my friends suddenly caring about baseball too just means I get to make more people understand why I love it so much.
