Go collect that bad boy
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

Now having watched a few games in the real uniforms, hate the placement (edit: of the) Nike logos. They really couldn't have put them on the sleeve or something?

I usually don't care about these type of things, but I had the same thought.

They're in the same spot on the NBA uniforms but fit the shape of the top so it looks fine.

vs. MLB is more like the NFL shape where they have them on the sleeves

and MLB uniforms are otherwise largely so clean that it just sticks out like a sore thumb, especially for teams like the Dodgers

Did this actually happen?

Baron, Jr and Eric sitting there thinking, "What about me, dad?"

Probably the first time he's ever played catch. I cannot imagine he pulls it off well.

In softball, we make the person that hit it go and collect it. That's why I don't hit them (also I suck).
