The Chicago Cubs played the St. Louis Cardinals in a doubleheader on Saturday.
Both games were seven innings long due to the scheduling quirks of trying to fit in a ton of baseball games in a short period of time (thanks COVID-19 and also MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred and also greed), the Cubs lost both games, and honestly whatever.
This season is dumb, the world is dumber, and the only thing that matters that happened yesterday at Wrigley Field is whatever this is:
Me: No, baseball isn’t boring it’s actually a really complex sport with incredibly talented athletes who constantly impress me with their superhuman abilities

I could look up more context for what’s happening here, but I choose not to. I choose to simply appreciate these men doing something beautiful and stupid and perfect. Thank you, Cubs. Thank you for this moment.
