The Sunny Side of Sports

This account exists for one reason: the moments that remind you why you fell in love with sports in the first place. Acts of sportsmanship. Unlikely heroes. Opponents becoming friends. Stories that give you chills. Every sport. Every level. ☀️

@tylerbarberis_ Stud

110 mph triple with a launch angle of six degrees to the right center field wall at 21 is ridiculous.

@BBGreatMoments Jim Palmer

name a pitcher who should come up more in all-time.

@TheSports_Shift Expos

@MLBNetwork Roman

Pick one player for the next decade: - Kevin McGonigle - Roman Anthony - Konnor Griffin - JJ Wetherholt

@SeizeTheNae Cal Ripken Jr.

Without saying Shohei Ohtani, who’s your favorite MLB player of all time?

@IAmSteveHarvey Cheers

What sitcom theme song had you singing every word like it was your own song?

@_iamlougotti Marcus Lattimore. He was going to be a great RB in the NFL and as a Gamecocks fan watching him tear his knee two straight years pained me.

Name an athlete you would love to see with an injury free career I’ll start with Andrew Luck

Yow. NBC Sports pulls Most-Watched Kentucky Derby on record Run for the Rose averages 19.6M viewers on NBC + Peacock. Audience peaks at 24.4M as Golden Tempo goes from last to first around final turn to win in a photo finish.

Great player and cause

Japanese player takes his shirt off so retiring referee can give him one last yellow card... I love this kind of good natured sportsmanship. 👏

@Barkley_Tap I honestly think it’s Vick.

Out of the following, who had the strongest arm?

.@KevinNegandhi, who emcees @DickieV's annual @TheVFoundation Gala, shared a wonderful tribute to Dick tonight on the 6p SportsCenter. Friday's event raised $21M for cancer research, increasing the all-time total to $125M. Incredible. More: bit.ly/49aggI4

@uscfan981 Cam Newton was unstoppable

Y’all agree? 😅

@DanClarkSports As an Orioles fan, I approve

My initial observations... • regional/local rivalries look great • ALNE is loaded with cash • Braves will win ALSE every year • Orioles breathe a sigh of relief This shake-up looks fresh and fun! What do you think?

@TalkinYanks You stay classy, New York

Mets radio booth paid homage to John Sterling after their win tonight "Ballgame over! Mets win! Theeee Mets win!"

@BarrySchust My dad said Stargell for sure

In their prime: Keith Hernandez or Willie Stargell. Who are you taking?

@BBGreatMoments Ozzie Smith. JJ Hardy also an underrated one.

Name a shortstop with the smoothest glove you've ever watched.

Dude hits a homerun and the most deserving fan in the entire stadium retrieves the ball
