Former President Barack Obama hits a first-pitch double, completes a touchdown pass, buys organic produce and recognizes greatness in the children attending after-school programs at the Nationals Baseball Academy. Damn, he sets the Baseball Boyfriend bar high. 

Christian Yelich cross-trains hard, attending a Milwaukee Bucks game with some Green Bay Packers and chugging arena beer like a native son. Josh Bell is hitting homers hard and often. Patti’s Phillies BF Jean Segura went 16 games into a hit streak. She does like them reliable. David “baby” Dahl of the Rockies is Pottymouth’s only boyfriend to crack the top 20 for batting average, which may explain her current fantasy league standings.

Mike Yaztremski and Cavan Biggio both debuted this week, continuing family legacies and making some Hall of Famers proud.

The Baltimore Orioles are part of home run history three different ways this week. None of them good. See Gleyber Torres, Nolan Arenado, and the 2000 Kansas City Royals.

Pottymouth leads the Baseball Math segment (you read that right) by proposing we rename the 10 and 60 day ILs into Short Term and Long Term injury lists. Why? Because the numbers don’t mean what you think they mean.
