Meantime, every single thing I see about Netflix's coverage of the Giants-Yankees game makes me glad I don't have Netflix.

If you have to look at it for this long, you should stick with the referee's decision on the pitch. #KCBaby

The attacking play really does look much sharper and more precise than it was in the first two matches. But we're a little slow off the ball; we're not closing down the other team fast enough. #KCBaby

I don't know what's wrong with the Current, but this is shocking. I actually thought we looked a lot better at the start of this match. But we just can't keep the ball out of our net! #KCBaby

Love how the main camera for tonight's KC Current match is apparently situated on top of the Space Needle. #KCBaby

Post a non-religious picture you think of as holy.

'You'll notice you don't have the box on your TV anymore' says the Rangers broadcaster, as I look at the box on the live broadcast. #Royals

Double and a homer for Salvy tonight! #Royals

Can umpires please start calling this for what it is: a baulk? The rule (6.02(a)(3) ) requires a pitcher to 'step directly toward a base' when throwing to a base from the rubber. This isn't even close. It isn't even more toward first than home. #Royals

I knew this was going to be a scrappy match given the pitch and the weather---basically the old Stoke City away---but it's still one we should have won. #KCBaby

Hey! That's more like it. #KCBaby

The pitch and ESPN's broadcast are both low-quality, and I really need the Current to stop playing down to that level. #KCBaby

Nothing Pulskamp could do about that one though. Shambolic defending again. #SportingKC

I like Pulskamp and I think he mostly gets put into bad situations by his back line. But he's got to do better on Colorado's last two goals. #SportingKC

The referee may be too whistle-happy for my liking, but it's got to be consistent. Colorado should be down to nine. #SportingKC

It's frustrating, but I think that's the right call. #SportingKC

Pulskamp is furious, but honestly I don't see anything there. Just him losing his balance trying to palm that over. #SportingKC

The referee knows this is a contact sport, right? He's called ten fouls in nine minutes, most of them soft. #SportingKC

#HeyHeyHeyHey! That's a fun way to finish the Cactus League! #Royals

Impulse buy at Costco today. Most of the flowers that were starting to come up didn't survive the hard freeze last week, and I had to uproot a bunch more because they're toxic to cats (daylilies), so it's nice to have some temporary replacements.

. @jakeeisenberg.bsky.social, so, Schrödinger's cat was not a real experiment, it was a hypothetical about quantum mechanics. The idea was because particles exist in superpositions of multiple states at once, if one released a poison gas, you could have a cat be /simultaneously/ dead and alive.

men showing genuine affection for each other, celebrating something they did together, as a collective. let this be a model for masculinity, not the fake hardo military bullshit

Love Salvy. Love seeing Salvy happy!

Salvy has captained his team to a championship, which I hope to see in October as well! #Royals #WorldBaseballClassic

Damn. That was a good swing by Salvy and off the bat I was hoping it was going to find a gap. #Royals #WorldBaseballClassic

I'm delighted for Salvy, Maikel, and Luinder, especially seeing Salvy react like that. But I am a little gutted for Vinnie and Jac, who did so much. #Royals #WorldBaseballClassic

Royal versus Royal! #Royals #WorldBaseballClassic

Vinnie's ability to pick a throw at first really shows how even advanced defensive metrics do not work very well for first basemen. That kind of play is so important, but it's not factored it to stuff like OAA or DRS. #Royals #WorldBaseballClassic

It's going to be so annoying listening to Joe Davis just not know shit about the #Royals or any of our players when we're in the World Series this year, isn't it?

Maikel robs Vinnie! #Royals #WorldBaseballClassic

Hopefully that is not the baserunning we see from Maikel this year. He was prone to that last year and I was (still am) hoping for better. #Royals #WorldBaseballClassic

It's Maikel Garcia, Joe, not Michael Garcia. #WorldBaseballClassic

I hope we keep Vinnie long-term. I want tonight's game to be the current Royals captain versus the future Royals captain. #Royals

I don't know how the various licensing agreements would work, but I really want to see this in the @royals.com team store this year! #Royals

Maybe a country that has vision insurance should host the next WBC

YIKES

I'm guessing the next WBC will have ABS!

First win of the year for #SportingKC! Both Kansas City football teams won today, which I was /not/ expecting.

I love how we basically spotted Utah the first half and then made it look easy in the second! #KCBaby

This place is so much fun. #KCBaby

Wow. I don't think I've ever seen this happen for a Spring Training game. #Royals

My favourite thing about TV games during Spring Training is that if I get up to get something or otherwise get distracted, and then see someone like Connor Scott hitting, I don't have to guess which team is up. #Royals

It's spring training for the umpires too, I guess. #Royals

Carter Jensen making absolutely sure the scorers give him a hit that time! #Royals

Sleep is for the weak.

My bold prediction for the #Royals is that Pasquatch is going to get MVP votes this year.

That should seal the United States' place in the knockouts. I don't think it was ever in too much doubt, but I'm sure there will be some relief. #WBC

Actually, that's probably dime-sized, though this is one of the larger ones.

We had pea/marble-sized hail in Brookside, but only very briefly. Might be more coming though.
