Blue Crush: Dodger Takeover

If there’s one team serving home runs and heartthrobs this week, it’s none other than the Los Angeles Dodgers! Shohei Ohtani, also known as “Shotime,” understood the assignment. Number 17 on the Dodgers is #1 in our hearts and #1 for HRs. He stepped up to the plate, swung, and hit it out of the park! Then he did it again… and again… and again. He’s currently on his 19th home run of the season and leading the league. Talk about making an entrance! Let’s see if he keeps the streak going for the Dodgers.
Yankees: Bronx Babes Holding Strong

Even with half their roster on the bench and stars like Giancarlo Stanton and Jazz Chisholm Jr. out, the Yankees aren’t missing a beat. Sitting at a solid 33-20, they’re staying hot and keeping the momentum going. Injuries may have shaken the lineup, but the team’s depth is showing out, and they’re making it look good. Once the big hitters are back, we can expect a boom from the Bronx!
Cubs Climb the Charts

The Chicago Cubs are definitely feeling their main character energy right now. Doing their best since 2019, they are officially 12 games over .500. Talk about winning and thriving! Pete Crow-Armstrong is stealing bases and hearts and making it look easy! Say it with me now, “Go, Cubs, Go!”
