I’m not even mad, just impressed (dying laughing).

The short version:

Suzuki is batting with Shaw on 2B and Bregman on 1B. Seiya bloops one to right that falls in. Shaw slows down thinking it might be caught and ends up on 3B. Bregman ends up there with him, thinking Shaw would score easily. Seiya gets thrown out at second trying to stretch a double in the confusion, then Bregman gets tagged out as the second player on third base. Then for some reason Shaw wanders off the bag and also gets tagged out. You can’t make this shit up (dying laughing).

  16. Not going to happen given that the NHL is arguably the only major sport whose players are more right-leaning than MLB, but would love it if they skipped the WH/SOTU invite over 45’s “jokes” about the women’s hockey team.

  27. (dying laughing) at PCA’s feature.

    Loved this quote:

    “I saw what bringing playoff baseball back to the city meant,” he says. “That’s an easy, immovable goal. The fuck are you playing for if you’re not trying to play in the playoffs and win the World Series? There’s more to life than baseball, but maybe not for me right now. This shit is my life.”
