The thing they don’t tell you about winning the World Series is that you will forget to take a single photo so you’ll have to rely on your dad and his flip phone to capture the celebration. No complaints. Congratulations 2019 @Nationals ❤️💙

1) This isn’t fun for us either. Nobody is more frustrated at Sean right now than Sean. This actively sucks, but I promise he’s been working on it around the clock .2) We don’t deserve you. We love you all. Even the buttheads (of which there are very few).3) Stay in the fight ❤️

How many opposing pitchers had to stand up and answer uncomfortable questions after rough outings in HOU in 2017? How many hours of footage do we have of them taking the blame for their performances, only to find out years later that the other team wasn’t operating on the level?.

My favorite World Series memory: Two years (and one day) ago, the @Nationals won the World Series. The team, coaches, staff, and families all stayed up late celebrating. The next morning, October 31st, the team and families were set to fly from HOU back home to DC with the trophy.

That piece of metal is literally called the Commissioner’s Trophy.

Sean’s injury last night was heartbreaking, but I’m thrilled he was able to return to form to help the team until that point. Change is hard. But it’s a reminder to cherish what you have. Idk what happens now, but I consider it a personal honor to have watched him with this team.

This prob seems small and silly. Those kids were super lucky to begin with; they just watched their team win the World Series and they were on the team plane (a rare occurrence)! And then the team’s superstar found a way for them to trick or treat. Juan Soto is just the coolest.

For as much space as baseball takes up in our lives, it’s weird we’ve never had the chance to experience a game together until today. I grew up a White Sox fan, so I was thrilled to be able to take Sean to a game and watch him eat chicken tenders somewhere new for once 🖤

Katie Nolan doesn’t need my help or validation. Her talent speaks for itself. And at the risk of giving oxygen to the dumpster fire that is Jason Whitlock’s take, I just want to say that it’s mega shitty to use “former bartender” (or really any job) as an insult. Speaks volumes.

We are lucky to be in a position that allows me to move out during this season so Sean doesn’t risk my health to play. But if you think a player considering opting out to protect family is somehow weak or unmanly, I invite you to kiss the entirety of my ass. Have a blessed day.

~20 minutes into the flight, Juan Soto got out of his seat with several bags of candy and gave each of us a handful. Then he went to the kids, gave them bags, and told them to go trick or treating on the flight. So they went row by row and we each gave them a piece of candy….

I do not often go to the mat to defend Sean’s honor as a hitter (he stinks, helmet too small, doesn’t know which way to run anyway). But to be clear, @whatwouldDOOdo goes down in history as the guy who K’ed Cole so bad that MLB instituted a universal DH. Not the other way around.
We may have witnessed the final pitcher AB in MLB history in Game 5 of the World Series: Top 7th, Gerrit Cole struck out vs Sean Doolittle.

I’m probably not supposed to say this, but people I beg of you please do not come to games right now. I know they’re still inexplicably playing them right now, but that doesn’t mean it’s safe to attend. You’re putting yourselves, the staffs, and teams at risk. Please don’t go.
Spring training is going on as usual in West Palm Beach this morning, even after someone who’d tested positive for coronavirus arrived on a flight from New York last night. The crowd is a little lighter, maybe, but it’s a Thursday and it always ebbs and flows. Stay tuned.
