Like most everyone else in America on Sunday, Major League Baseball was enthralled with two things: Tiger Woods winning the Masters and the Game of Thrones final season premiere. Everybody was posting about it, from Manny Machado, one of the West Coast’s biggest stars, to Aaron Judge, one of the biggest stars on the East Coast. Elsewhere, Monday is Jackie Robinson Day and Yasiel Puig returns to L.A.
- We feel that, Manny. We all do. No spoilers for Game of Thrones here, but did you hear Tiger won the Masters? The Braves, with their strangely persistent Tiger Woods meme, certainly let everyone know about it.
- Every April 15, Major League Baseball takes part in one of its coolest traditions: Every player on every team wears No. 42 in honor of Jackie Robinson’s trail-blazing Major League debut, 72 years ago today.
- Memory is a complicated thing, and the Los Angeles Dodgers have plenty of good and bad memories of Yasiel Puig, who is returning to L.A. as a visiting player for the first time.
- And finally, for something completely different, aren’t Tayron Guerrero and Sergio Romo cute?
We feel that, Manny. We all do. No spoilers for Game of Thrones here, but did you hear Tiger won the Masters? The Braves, with their strangely persistent Tiger Woods meme, certainly let everyone know about it.

Memory is a complicated thing, and the Los Angeles Dodgers have plenty of good and bad memories of Yasiel Puig, who is returning to L.A. as a visiting player for the first time.

The complicated legacy of Yasiel Puig.
“You never knew what was going to happen. It was electric.”
“He just saw it as he was just going to show up and do whatever he wants.” https://t.co/tuFys5diws
