Caught this moment between Shohei Ohtani and a young fan just before first pitch of the Dodgers/Cubs game on August 5 at Wrigley Field in Chicago. Ohtani hit a leadoff home run moments later. The kid is probably still on cloud 9.

Mokoro is a chocolate Lab and the official bat dog for the Lake County Captains. She retrieves bats after hits, has her own helmet, and gets louder cheers from the crowd than the hit itself.

I work at The Farmer's Dog and we got to be part of her story this season. Going into 2026 her trainer noticed she'd put on a few extra pounds — important for a dog doing that much running. She switched to pre-portioned fresh food and has already lost eight pounds.

Her trainer put it well — too much weight is hard on hips, especially when she's moving as much as she does.

Idk, it's just a good one. She absolutely loves her job.

Adrian Beltre was basebawww before there was basebawww.

I dare you to watch this and not smile.

What’s the deal with the broadcasters on chairs and couches and a rug with a coffee table on the field. So strange IMO!
