The Daily Swag

If you are wondering how Jose Bautista and David Ortiz are getting to the All-Star Game, they will be traveling by prancercise. 

If you do happen by Marlins Park this weekend, be careful as to not get the desperation all over you. 

In the fourth inning of Monday's Yankees game against the Royals, a more serious battle broke out. In the end, Mother Nature laid a whooping on the egos of the New York grounds crew. 

Play was stopped for almost an hour during what would be an eventual 5-1 win for the visiting Royals. So really, the best part of the night for the scant fans who stayed and tried to remain dry was this humbling attempt by the grounds crew to tarp the infield. 

There are hardly two more storied franchises in all of sports history than the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers. That history was on full display during a heated skirmish on Twitter.

That Yasiel Puig is so hot right now. 

It's almost fitting that this fan chose to wear yellow to the Angels game. BuzzFeed Sports found a video showing one Angels fan who had to suffer far more than an eventual loss by her favorite baseball team.

Justin Verlander should most definitely be featured in the 2013 MLB All-Star festivities, just as long as he never picks up a bat. 

Common logic aside, the Detroit Tigers ace flirted with the notion of appearing in the Chris Berman bark-fest known as the Home Run Derby with the following tweet:

Amid a humbling season and a torrential thunderstorm of boos raining down from Dodger Stadium fans, Matt Kemp continues to do what he can to lift the spirits of a young man who has too few days to appreciate his baseball hero. 

If only they awarded points for how awesomely you failed.

Jose Bautista is now a card-carrying member of the cool club.
