Dodgers Pride Night is June 5 against the Angels, and they are putting up a permanent display in the centerfield plaza at Dodger Stadium honoring Glenn Burke and Billy Bean

Probably NOT the series/opponent the Dodgers should complain about a bad check swing call 🙃😂 but looked like Devers went around on one. A few pitches later: HR and 1-0 SF.

Booth Views: Dr. Seuss ahh broadcasting 😂 for real, though, jaw-dropping (and face-crunching) catch from Eli White. And good ball is good ball, no matter what team you call games for.

shame on folks who weren’t predicting Justin Wrobleski (1.25) & Bryce Elder (2.02) would *both* be top-8 in ERA when LA-ATL faced off in May 🙃 Wrobleski’s just the 4th Dodger since 1920 with 5 wins and a sub-1.00 ERA over his first five starts. Elder looks like a new guy after altering his pitch mix

Stepped away from Lakers-Thunder after the SGA flagrant to put the kids down to sleep. Come back and

Framber Valdez changed teams but hasn’t changed a bit.

/Van Morrison’s ‘Domino’ voice OHH-OH, MAGGLIO

Dear, brain. Proud of you for not totally quitting on me whilst live on television. We got there eventually 😂 shouts to Wrobo, btw

Official recap for the Dodgers series opener vs the Cubs:

The Rushing situation is interesting, with the Giants’ side heated over Tuesday’s lip-reading. With all of the 💩 talked during a game/series/season—most of which not caught on camera—that seems a slippery slope? But playing the scenario out: if perceived words = FB to ribs. Then a door gets opened…

A surprise guest popped in to the booth: Johnnie B. Baker! Seeing Dusty is always the highlight of any night, but especially tonight. Love both of these legends 💙

Back to feeling fist-curling frustration over no run support for Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Nowwww, the season is kicking into gear 😂

Appreciated Manny (and others like @fabianardaya.bsky.social) covering Momoyo’s visit. I wasn’t expecting to turn into a blubbering mess. But meeting her stirred up a lot of emotion. What a special and strong woman.

Oh wow, Bo Bichette must be so done with Miguel Rojas 🙃

most know that Miguel Rojas started a tradition: when the Dodgers win a series, they celebrate with a shot/toast. Tuesday night, after the win and series clinch, with Miggy back at the team hotel, the Dodgers toasted him and prayed for the Rojas family 💙

Again: he’s the most meme-able superstar in sports.

Join these two on the radio call for #OpeningDay  at Blue Heaven—yup, she’s (still) a beaut 😍

🗣️I’m not a perfect person (or broadcaster), there’s many things I wish I didn’t do….. But asking Dino that particular question is not among said things.

Wake up, babe, it’s #OpeningDay! 😂

GENO. Wow. He’s an all-world dude (with famously unmatched vibes—only the good kind!)

Bryce!

Still ballgame left, but the US lineup has been 😬 for the majority of this tournament. big names have come up small. Harper’s made more noise with his “WBC vs Olympics” quotes than his bat. Judge’s biggest play is with his arm. Bregman/Buxton MIA. Raleigh hitless, benched for the two biggest games.

Love Jose Mota & our crew. Mota tricked me—said he snuck his wife, whom I love, into Tokyo Dome to say hi between games. So, I followed him into a room where the team had a birthday cake waiting for my old ass 🥹💙🙏

Copy-paste this but for Taiwan-Korea. The emotion on these players' faces is moving beyond belief.

HELL.YEAH. @tylermaun.com 👏

Comet sighting ☄️ ITF[WBC]B!

Czechia manager Pavel Chadim is one of my most favorite people in the world. Here's one reason why. He said this after losing, 14-0, to Chinese Taipei

WBC. Tokyo Dome. Bases loaded. Ohtani at the plate. Did you really think anything else was gonna happen?! 🙃😂 #BoothViews with Jose Mota for Shohei’s WBC slam in Samurai Japan’s rout of Chinese Taipei. #WorldBaseballClassic  #大谷翔平

As he enjoys doing whenever he’s home, Ohtani put on a BP show. This one off the top of the video board. But he had an earlier one over the lights in the Tokyo Dome. #WorldBaseballClassic

I asked Bazzana postgame if his notes app included lines about a home run and a win in his debut. He laughed and said he expected Australia to have a winning team, so basically, it was unsaid 😂

Here we go! Jose Mota me and our crew are ready to roll for the 2026 #WorldBaseballClassic opener: Australia (home) vs Chinese Taipei (away).

Good morning, Fujisan 🏔️😍

Magical moments are what the WBC is all about. Not just from big-name MLB stars. But from and for the small countries with big dreams. Like 2023, in Czechia’s first-ever #WorldBaseballClassic, Martin Mužík hit a go-ahead, 9th-inning home run for the Czech ages. (His mom’s reaction🥹)

Finally crossed Hanshin Koshien Stadium off of the baseball bucket list!

Was awesome to catch up with Gavin Stone last week. Hope folks didn’t forget how important/valuable he was in 2024. He looks awesome physically, and is feeling good mentally. (And surgery didn’t rob him of the nasty cambio!)

Honored to be a small part of another WBC, working alongside a dear friend in Jose Mota and with an incredible international group. Pool C in Tokyo should be electric! 🇯🇵 speaking of electricity, can’t wait to hear @tylermaun.com & Hyphen in Puerto Rico. Fired up for this tourney!

From a small scrum in Everett, WA before the 2018-19 World Junior Championship ➡️ to being draped in the flag at 2026 Olympics after a golden goal. you knew this kid/smile was destined for legend. Atta way, Jack! 🇺🇸🥇

The most hilarious content right now: people posting loudly, sincerely and very seriously about watching a Kid Rock performance. Bless their little, non-existent hearts 🤗

Happy Dodger Fest(ivus)! Excited to see everybody at the stadium today. From 12:30-2pm, Joe Davis and I will host a show from the field, talking with a your favorite Dodgers. Let’s have a day! 🤙 #ITFDB #DodgerFest

“Will [Klein] Power”

It is preposterous how many people—even accounting for obvious bot accounts—who are scrambling to yell “TREAD ON ME! PLEASE PICK ME TO TREAD ON! I SERIOUSLY ENJOY THE TREADING!” online.

Wael Tarabishi, the last person I wrote about for the Star-Telegram, died on Friday. Wael’s health declined rapidly after his father and primary caretaker, Maher, was detained by ICE last fall. The Tarabishi family believes that if Maher had not been arrested, Wael would still be alive. I do too.

I feel blood-boiling and fist-clenching rage seeing *gestures at the current state of things*. Then I see my kids—just simply existing—and I am struck by fear and sadness. It’s an emotional tug-of-war, and it can be paralyzing.

Thinking about that game 😭 Thinking about this season 🥲 Damn. Tough ending. But what a ride. Even my boys—4 & 2 with absolutely zero idea what’s going on or why dad is doing loud noises—got into it. So that’s a neat development for the household moving forward. Anyway: 🐻⬇️

🐻 TF ⬇️!!

self-annointed arbiters of “snowflakes” responded to actual snowballs—thrown by teenagers—with pepper spray. The alpha’est alpha’ers to ever alpha.
