  1. my god these dudes are so spent, they all take the same swings with the lowest exit velocities imaginable

  2. The O’s at least get an AB with Gunnar in the bottom of the ninth because of that single. The body language is not good in that dugout though

  3. Guys I’ll be happy to pay for everything because I get 2% cashback!

    Also I’m 80 years old but can’t get enough of this ad money 🤑

  4. there’s something really off with that girl’s face in the Apple Intelligence commercials

  5. Not putting Holliday in is insane. Dude is the most hyped prospect in several decade, but they don’t trust him here

  6. This KC fan behind homeplate is being way too dramatic for a game he should know by now is gonna be won by the Royals lmao
