And now to San Francisco, where Max Muncy of the Dodgers became the Blob's momentary favorite baseball player not because of what he did, but because of what he said.
What he did was, he took a Madison Bumgarner meatball for a long ride, crushing it 426 feet to a splashdown in McCovey Cove.
After which he gave the bat an insolent little flip and then walked a couple of steps, following its suborbital flight from the park.
After which Bumgarner went full crybaby, shouting at Muncy to observe baseball's stupid unwritten rules and not show him up, on account of Bumgarner's feelings are apparently easily bruised.
"Don't watch the ball, run," Bumgarner complained.
And Muncy's reply?
"I just told him if he doesn't want me to watch the ball, go get it out of the ocean," he tweeted later.
Give that man a gold star.
