As June rolls to a close, Gabe Kapler surprises us in the best of ways, and the NHL provides a Police Blotter and Crosstraining in one convenient and disappointing package. All Star Voting is all about the boyfriends, rigged or not. Will Julio Rodriguez have that Hometown Harper Derby magic? The SELL shirt from the As reverse boycott scores a place in Cooperstown. We heartily endorse tourism by baseball players (we’re looking at you, Christopher Morel) as they enjoy London and plan for more overseas series. But seriously, how about those Reds? Patti gives Pottymouth dibs on Elly, but will likely regret it after seeing him play in person this week. BF Mickey Moniak goes 5-5 in the Angels rout of the Rockies, and LAA takes Mike Moustakas as their spoils of war. The College World Series showcases jello shots and racy dance moves and where has it been all our lives (we ask while wearing our LSU gear). Pottymouth provides excellent pro-tips for concert-going at ballparks and does not fall for Patti’s tricks to get her to say Citifield > Fenway, even with the Lindor family’s influence.
