@GiantHotTakes Wow we never would have guessed the bullpen would have issues..

The bullpen meltdowns are here! 8-0 Mets as the boo birds reign down.

@Coach_Yac Imagine if Ruben Foster had his shit together

@nut_history He IS the lawnmower

Is there a lawn mowing Hall of Fame because this dude would be a unanimous first ballot HOFer

@jbecher Typo? Captain this

Caption this, #sjsharks fans

@sharkvoice @predators @SanJoseSharks How many points for Celebrini tonight?

When the @predators traded Yaroslav Askarov to the @SanJoseSharks in the summer of '24, they did so in part because they decided Juuse Saros would be their goalie of the future. Tonight, Askarov and Saros go head-to-head for the first time in an NHL game. And the stakes are HUGE! @NBCSSharks

What's up with the schedule and first pitch times this season @mlb? Can we get some weekend day games?

@LeoMozoloa @elonmusk I think he initially meant to say 4 to 6 months

@elonmusk V3 is cursed to be eternally 4 to 6 weeks away

Next flight of Starship and first flight of V3 ship & booster is 4 to 6 weeks away

@CodifyBaseball Don't make it a challenge. Just relay the pitch into an ear piece for the ump.

Tell me the one thing you'd change about the ABS Challenge System.

@PavlovicNBCS With one swing Bader matched the Giants total runs scored this season!

Harrison Bader has the first homer of the season for the Giants. He crushed a curveball off the facing of the second deck in left field. The Giants also have their first lead of the season.

Jinx?

in David Attenboroughs voice: And here, beneath the blazing lights of a packed major league ballpark on a warm regular season evening, we observe one of nature’s most imperiled creatures: the Home Plate Umpire. Once the undisputed sovereign of the strike zone, this noble specimen now finds his ancient authority under relentless assault. With each defiant tap of the batter’s helmet, his domain shrinks further, as the cold precision of the Automated Ball Strike system looms like an inevitable predator. Two challenges per team, and suddenly the man in black is fighting for survival in a game that once revered his every gesture. Nature, it seems, is rarely sentimental especially when technology arrives with its own strike zone.

There are moments that offer a pretty good sense that something new is going to work. This feels like one for ABS. The Cincinnati crowd’s reaction was thunderous. And the situation itself — twice it salvaged a bases-loaded opportunity. This system plays.

@MLB Giants fans.

DOMINIC SMITH WALK-OFF GRAND SLAM 🤯

@KutterIsKing Are the Football Giants better at baseball than the Baseball Giants?

This giants team is #BAD

@PavlovicNBCS The amount of fans who are surprised: 0

The Giants lost 3-0. Their four hits through the first two games are the fewest in franchise history. This is the first time they've been shut out in the first two games of a season.

@jayhastings79 @GiantHotTakes Rockies have the worst offense and they play in Colorado. Thats actually impressive!

@GiantHotTakes That lineup will struggle with the Rockies

Traditional Opening Day is here and the Netflix Nightmare is over. Let’s restart this thing. First pitch is scheduled for 1:35. See you then.

@Coach_Yac @GiantHotTakes This is their chance to get to .500

@GiantHotTakes Good point 😂

Jacob Wilson makes no sense

2026 National League West starting lineups if they were alphabetized by last name.

@BernieSanders Fun fact, the last time America was in a war was WW2! I think we're doing pretty good!

Health care? "You're on your own." Housing? "Nothing we can do." Grocery prices? "You're out of luck." $200 billion for another war? "No problem!" Americans—Democrats, Republicans, independents—are SICK AND TIRED of endless wars. We need to invest here at home.
