Oh god, have we become the team that causes fans to forget their players still play? Are we the Rockies now?

If it makes you feel better I have a Padres hat because it matches my Jordans 🤣

Lmao same, as a Mariners fan seeing Robbie Ray with a glove on his head and jaw hanging open as he gets a grand slam was a bigger highlight than the incredible catch.

Apparently was an all star in 2025 too, before falling off in the 2nd half.

Im a Jays fan, we dont get to see the National League much.

Might as well be the Mars league lmao.

Still remember his Cy Young season when he was here.

We let him go because we didn't like spending with the big boys back then

Just had a hard time controlling it

Ray's reaction and the exchange with Merrill are both so good

u/AnotherPersonPerhaps Seattle Mariners • New York Heights Aug 19 '26

He knew he had to put his glove on his head. What more do you want?

u/Duct_tape_bandit Chicago Cubs Aug 19 '26

i love the celebrating simultaneously with cringing knowing he just got away with one so bad

u/FatCatYouStink San Diego Padres Aug 19 '26

He didn't know Tatis caught the ball until he did the thing

He totally saved me, I was so fucking mad and the cut to him with his glove hat made me laugh.
