You won't read a more lovely story today. It's a reminder that there's a place for everyone! Thanks to the Washington community for showing us and to @jacobunruh.bsky.social for telling us about it. www.oklahoman.com/story/sports...

I know a lot of people talk about "Ken Griffey's swing", "John Olerud's swing" but for my money there is nothing more beautiful than Alejandro Kirk: - 5'7 and built like a Welsh corgi - basically drops halfway into a splits on each swing - each swing is a Street Fighter "Shooooryuken" uppercut

hard to blame him. he also thought the marlins were a good franchise. sometimes, ignorance really is bliss.

Somewhere, the hair on Ben Wyatt’s neck just stood up

Judge finally goes supernova in October and they get bounced in 4, at home, lol

"Start spreading the news, bitches!"

The AL's representative in the World Series will either be the Tigers (haven't been since 2012), Blue Jays (haven't been since 1993), or the Mariners (have never played in a World Series).

This piece from @jennicarlsonok.bsky.social is absolute gold. www.oklahoman.com/story/sports...

Finished “The Day of the Jackal” last night. What an insanely great show! Season 2 can’t get here fast enough (probably late next year, I know.)

The best start to a Saturday: Wake up early with Koehn, put a pork butt on the smoker, go get donuts. Enjoy said donuts and Bluey together while others in the house sleep.

I’m not built to handle Quail Springs, especially Walmart, at the holidays. Get me the hell out of here!

Just looking at the 2025 calendar for no reason. WCWS: May 29-June 6 NBA Finals, Game 1: June 5

EEEEEVVVVVVOOOOOO

Maybe it’s the rocker nap I took with my youngest tonight talking, but I’m tired of reading about the “poor” Rangers this offseason. Spend the damn money and figure out the TV deal and everything else later. The money is there.

Oh, it’s the dream year for Yankees haters. Soto plays very well in the postseason. Yankees make the World Series and lose. Then Soto leaves … for the Mets! Soak it all in, Yankees haters!

My take on this golden at-bat nonsense:

I don’t know what is the bigger Rangers news this evening. The World Series documentary finally arriving next week. or … Kyle Higashioka signing to split time with Jonah Heim. … … I’ll go documentary. Finally. Now, MLB just needs to make all five games available to purchase.

The Oklahoman sports department puts together #okpreps All-State teams every year for football, basketball, baseball and — for the first time in Sunday's fishwrap edition — softball.

Wishing a happy birthday to Pudge Rodriguez! (drawing based on a beer I had in Puerto Rico a few years ago)

The Dodgers rotation is insane (if healthy, which we all know won't happen). Plus, there will be innings limits on some. And Snell/Glasnow rarely throw a ton of innings. Yamamoto Snell Glasnow Ohtani Miller Gonsolin May Knack Kershaw

I finally watched “Deadpool & Wolverine” this week. How did nobody ever talk about this movie? Why did nobody tell me how amazing it is?

The trick to being a Dallas Cowboys fan nowadays is to just look away. I've just lost interest in caring. It's a totally unserious organization. The Rangers make that easy.

Wyatt Langford should have at least been top three in ROY. Stinks he wasn’t. But I choose to find the bright side … Maybe his cards will drop in price, even just a little?

So, I created a starter pack for Oklahoma sports journalists. I’m sure someone is missing. Let me know and I’ll get them added! go.bsky.app/Js4dR4U

Just Googled who Jake Paul is as I watch this fight. Shows how in the know I am.

I got sucked in. I regret it. This is sad.

I’m not even interested in watching this fight. I’ll catch all of the memes and highlights on here.

So, let me get this straight. The Orioles moved their left-field wall because it was too hitter friendly. They then realized their plethora of super prospects/young stars couldn’t benefit from that and they’re moving it back in? I’m sorry. That’s just hilarious.

Now he has more time to be a homemaker and I think that's great

I wasn’t convinced Josh Smith was for real until about August. So, this is awesome to see!

My 4-year-old just mean mugged the hell out of me as I jammed to “U Can’t Touch This” when it came on satellite radio while driving him to Mother’s Day Out. Not my fault you’ve been up for 3-plus hours, bro.

Look, I know the Rangers’ title defense was a mess. But Wyatt Langford should have been a Rookie of the Year finalist. Did he stink early? Yes. Was he better after an injury? Yes. Was he even better late in the season? Absolutely.

Hi everyone! Longtime listener, first-time poster. I’m unfortunately not deleting the other app for work purposes. But I’m here to make this more personal. So, that means baseball and more baseball. Craft beer. Great food. My family. And I’ll be here for work stuff, too. Just not as much.
