Jhonkensy Noel, locked in, swings at three pitches in this 3 pitch at bat, striking out. Of those 3 pitches, he makes contact with only the first. The other two pitches were comically far from the plate and never even theoretically threatened the strike zone.

Update:
Johnathan Rodriguez's third at-bat against the Astros on July 9, 2025. With the infield drawn in, sometimes you will smash a ball into the dirt and get rewarded with a 2-run single :)

Totally agreed. I wish they gave teams some runs for hitting the ball really hard into the dirt, though
Johnathan Rodriguez's first at-bat against the Houston Astros on July 9, 2025, where he worked the count full before he grounded out to the pitcher at 112 mph (!), but the ball traveled 21 feet before cratering the field :(

Well, nothing official yet, but it could be a wet one at Classic Auto Group Park if we're playing tonight.
Classic Park in Eastlake, OH with the tarp on. Behind the light post, a swirling cumulonimbus cloud appears to be descending.

Google search results for the Rizzler. The AI Overview reads, ""The Ritzler" appears to be a Dutch DJ and house music producer who also plays bass, known for his soulful, funky, and deep house music style, often collaborating with other musicians and vocalists." Reader, this is not the Rizzler I know. The real Rizzler is a large child who puts his hand on his chin.

Happy Birthday, Justin Boyd. Boyd stands on the left hand side, arms crossed, with a flat expression. Another, similarly unenthusiastic photo of Boyd is watermarked on the image.

If you see this, quote with a game with a 10/10 soundtrack (controversial)
This is the box art of Chrono Cross, a game for the Sony PlayStation. The art features a boy with blue hair, Serge, wearing a bandanna and an odd red and blue coverall over a black T-shirt. To his right stands a girl, Kid, with reddish blonde hair in a braided up-do, wearing a cropped jacket and white top. An anthropomorphic cat, Lynx, is watermarked into the background. This game has a fantastic soundtrack.

I did not know Milan Tolentino was capable of EVs like this
An excerpt from the Brewers/Guardians spring training game on March 2,2025. In the bottom of the 9th, Milan Tolentino homers (1) on a fly ball to center field. The ball was hit 109.3 mph, 455 feet.

I'm not sure they even tried to center it
7/8ths of a Little Caesars pizza in a box on a wooden table. The midpoint of the slices is remarkably off-center, making 3 of the slices roughly 65% of the entire pizza. I think it's pretty funny.

Here's the rule, I think it's open and shut targeting. He initiates contact with his helmet, and when that hit is on a defenseless receiver, it's targeting.
This is a screenshot of the rule for targeting when a player is "defenseless," per SEC officiating guidelines.

I'm not sure I need to be more pretentious, Merriam-Webster
A screenshot of a post by Merriam-Webster that reads, "Take a screenshot of this GIF, and whichever new word you land on is YOUR word for 2025. Godspeed." The GIF cycles through the new words added to Merriam-Webster's dictionary for 2025. In this screenshot, the word "avant-garde" is captured. The poster is going to struggle to make this HIS word for 2025.

The Charge are playing this season in the Public Auditorium - it's such an interesting venue, and I hope the city can use this place more often.
Cleveland Charge vs. Wisconsin Herd, December 13, 2024. The teams are warming up prior to the tip-off. The venue is Cleveland Public Auditorium, which is the new home venue for the Cleveland Charge G-League basketball team.

I have a theory lol
A screenshot of the Bluesky account belonging to Zack Meisel, beat writer for the Cleveland Guardians at The Athletic. A sunrise with "Say Hello!" underneath it is displayed. Under the sunrise, text reads "Zack Meisel joined Bluesky 19 hours ago."

Inspired by the great picks of people like @shaylarz.bsky.social, let's roll
This image contains a warm white background. The image is slightly out of focus. Bold, capital letters read, "GET TO KNOW MY MUSIC TASTE." The subhead reads, "for every like, I will post one song I love." There is a small heart next to the word love.
