This was so well done (and funny). Bravo!

“Success Eggs.” Pretty funny

Including those photos on Seth Lugo with his boys at the press conference table was fantastic! Humanizes the player so well. Great job

His swinging at 2 worse pitches further outside the strike zone than the called strike 3 doesn’t help, though. Kind of asking for it

Or setting up on the bench when facing righties - does Melendez have a reverse split against lefties? Why not use the platoon?

You might consider Shoresy, next. Crass and maybe even initially your kind of stupid, but turns out to be hilarious and to have a lot of heart. Better, more subversive, and more sincere than Ted Lasso (but, also, much more vulgar). Also better sports action scenes.

My 16 yo son was just saying he misses Surprise, even though outside the Royals it’s pretty sparse. We stayed at the Surprise RI for 2 days one ST - dining got old real fast but we did run into Sal Perez in an elevator. And Franmil Reyes made fun of our basketball skills on the hotel court.

Seeing and hearing that 8 second video just made my day

+1
Marky Marky style 3:30 am wake up calls with serial side hustling and grinding all-day, every day is also the best path toward a few divorces and kids who are scared of you.

I agree - but would also trade 5 road wins over Florida for another win over Kansas. Beating KU is just the best.

I know which one means more to the fans (and me), but was the win over KU at home or beating Florida on the road more important for tournament chances?

13-21 on the road against a top 5 team isn’t gonna work too often. Good thing FL has missed 10

Now I have to add “longtime falconer” to my bsky bio, along with “DJ and bumfight promoter” (h/t to your pal @davidjroth.bsky.social)
