I'm not sure how to prepare you for quite literally the goofiest looking hit-by-pitch I've ever seen

Me: That’s the great thing about baseball. You could win 11-0 one day, but the next day it’s a brand new game. Rosie: Unless it’s the last game of the season.

People say goalies are crazy, but most NHL guys I know wear technically 3 cups: A pro-level goalie jock, which is a separated double cup, and a more form-fitting player jock worn underneath. Not taking any chances.

Crediting the Rays for “forcing mistakes” is a laughable level of water carrying, I’m sorry

How in the world does security not let him past the rope? Ridiculous.

Rosie before running the bases on the field at Rogers Centre: “I’m going to show Kirk how to run fast” Kid’s got jokes

That pitch that hit Rafaela would be an interesting test for the new check swing challenge system. He took his hands off the bat, but the bat completed the swing. Letting go of the bat doesn't cancel out your swing, and I'm pretty sure the system just looks at the bat and not your hand position.

The rule is fine as long as the umpires don’t forget how many outs there are in the inning and properly signal that the run counts so the Jays know to appeal. Going back and changing it to a timing play 17 mins later and giving the Sox the run is the icky part.

A pretty crappy team is going to get the final wildcard spot. Why not my favourite little crappy team? Go Jays

This is a massive problem in South Delta. Jamming houses in everywhere with no community upgrades.

Kinda wanted the Jays to sign him instead of Santander a couple of years ago. I guess that move would have failed just as miserably 😬

Just found out Instagram lost all of the audio tracks to any video posted on their service pre-2015, and have done nothing to fix it in 3 years. Hope everyone is keeping hard copies of videos that they enjoy/are important because tech companies don’t care and the videos won’t be hosted forever.

Met the cutest, friendliest little cat that hangs out at the park by my house last night. Trying not to get too attached though, because we have owls the size of St. Bernards that also like to hang out in the trees by the same park 😬

Thank you to everyone that has reached out today. It’s still surreal seeing all of the reaction on social media, but it speaks to the community that we created at 650.

Balls that bounce off the netting are apparently in-play. It has to go directly off the netting for it to be a dead ball. It happened in a Jays game last week.

I pull up to a stop in traffic and a guy in a van stopped going the other way shouts out of his window: "Hey man, you've got a flat tire!" Me: "Really? My car has tire sensors, that would be really surprising." Him: "Nah I'm just playing with you" and then he drove off 😵‍💫💀

Rosie (4 y/o) found out that the Yankees don’t have a mascot, so she has created the concept of “Hot Dog Goer” with sidekick “Baby Hot Dog Goer.” It’s a person in a hot dog costume that bribes people with $100 to cheer for New York. She runs around the house in a hot dog costume acting this out.
