Rookie catchers with 20+ HR and 25+ 2B in a season (min. 85 games at C):

Carlton Fisk (1972)
Geovany Soto (2008)
Carter Jensen (2026) 👑

A special season for the Royals' 23-year-old backstop!

[Joel Goldberg @goldbergkc]

Congrats to Jac Caglianone and Noah Cameron. The first Royals duo to win American League player and pitcher of the month in the same month since George Brett and Bret Saberhagen in 1985.

It was fun to dream for a few days there. Hope you enjoyed it, because that's about all the fun we're going to get until next season...whenever next season begins.

This is the first time that we haven’t seen Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, or Rafa Nadal in the 2nd round of a Grand Slam since 2003.

23 years.

The greatest era of men’s tennis is fading.

Trent Green getting injured in the 1999 preseason might end up being one of the wildest NFL domino effects yet

"Hey guys, my approval rating is at historic lows, gas is over $4/gallon, I've started another Middle East war, inflation is creeping up, so I think I'll take a dump on many conservatives who have legitimate questions about Data Centers in their backyards."

"Sounds good, boss!"

Happy Sunday morning.
Christ is King. Take your family to church. Here’s why:

A people who are starting families and having kids believe in the future. They have ownership in civilization. They know the weight of caring for a soul beyond themselves. What’s the point of building anything if you have no future?

This is why God’s first command to man is to ‘be fruitful and multiply.’ A Family anchors you and gives you eternal purpose. Parents are the best people to entrust civilization to because they have the best motivation…

The entire reason I do any of this is to try and leave a functional, clean, prosperous America for my American children. My prayer in life is to inspire other young Americans to get married and start families. Hard to do that if you don’t show the euphoria of parenthood to counteract the nihilism of childless culture. The only way we ‘save’ the West is not through some new law or policy — it’s through a baby boom of God-fearing Americans. This will bring about a national revival. This is our movement’s superpower. There is nothing more important.

So find a cute Christian girl. Get married. Have a million kids. And bring those kids to church. If we do that, we win.

[Royals Kingdom🤴(63-78) @kingdom_royals]

The Royals were 50-74

They are now 62-75

[Rany Jazayerli @jazayerli]

Behind sterling middle relief work from Anthony Gose and Craig Kimbrel, and a home run and 4 RBIs off the bench from Josh Rojas, the Royals beat the Guardians again in Cleveland, their 12th win in 13 games.

For the love of God, somebody please make this make sense.

[Josh Chavis @JoshChavis65]

I don’t care what the standings are. The Royals are the hottest team in baseball right now, and I’m loving it.

You should be, too.

[Geoff Schwartz @geoffschwartz]

Chiefs preseason ending in a 9-9 tie feels about fitting. The most boring preseason from the Chiefs I can remember. One touchdown in three games.

[MLB @MLB]

Michael Wacha tosses 8 dominant innings and the @Royals have won 11 of their last 12!

[Just Baseball @JustBB_Media]

Jac Caglianone tonight:

5-for-6 | 2 XBH | 3 R | 6 RBI

He’s up to 23 home runs and an .832 OPS on the year 💪

[Pete Thamel @PeteThamel]

Sources: Kansas has named Isaiah Marshall the school’s starting quarterback. He’s a redshirt sophomore dual-threat quarterback who has played in nine games, completed all 3 of his passes and rushed for 160 yards on 15 carries.

[Austin Abbott @AustinAbbott]

Some of the wildest stats in NFL history:

- The Bears have never had a 4,000+ yard passer in a season (106 seasons)

- All 4 of the Baltimore/Indianapolis Colts Superbowls were played in Miami

- Larry Fitzgerald in 17 seasons finished with more tackles (42) than drops (29)

- During the entire 2014 NFL regular season, the Kansas City Chiefs did not throw a single receiving touchdown to a wide receiver

- The Panthers have never recorded back to back winning seasons in their franchise history, yet they once won the NFC South division 3 years in a row (31 seasons)

- The Buccaneers lost 26 consecutive games from 1976-1977. This was their first 26 games as a franchise. 0-14 in year 1, then they went 2-12 in year 2.

- Every NFC team has played in the NFC Championship game since 2010, except the Cowboys, who haven’t since 1995

- Ryan Fitzpatrick led the 2019 Dolphins in Rushing Yards (243) and TD’s (4).. Dude was 37 years old at the time..

- Tom Brady never played a game in his entire career where he was mathematically eliminated from the playoffs going into it.

- For his entire career, Tom Brady has a better chance of getting to the Super Bowl (47.6%) than Steph Curry has of making a 3 pointer (42.2%).

- The Jets joined the NFL in 1970. They beat the eagles for the first time in 2023.

- The Lions went 70 straight games without having a 100 yard rusher. This was during the Stafford era.. it started after Reggie Bush rushed for 117 yards on Thanksgiving in 2013. The drought lasted almost 5 seasons before Kerryon Johnson rushed for 101 yards in 2018..

- Mike Vrabel had 12 career receptions during his career, and every single one was a touchdown..

[Jared Koller @JaredKollerKC]

Crazy but true. If the #Royals won just *A THIRD* of the games that they lost in the 8th inning or later this year, they’d currently own a playoff spot. If they just held on to all their 9th inning leads, they’d have a playoff spot. A bad bullpen made that big of a difference.
