For the record, I spent the second half of the 2021 season holding the net next to the first base dugout up so that Julio Rodriguez could sign autographs for kids, and I got to know him a little bit back then. He would actively avoid signing for adults to make sure that kids would get his auto in the limited time he had (he wasn't actually supposed to be signing that year so someone was always on their way to make it stop), but would always spend as much time as he possibly could with them. The only people I have met on a baseball field who MIGHT be nicer are Bobby Witt Jr and Masyn Wiin. His mom let me hold his Olympic medal, for crying out loud, and I have a ball that he signed for me sitting on the shelf behind me when I watch baseball games on the PC.
I fucking adore that kid.
So being this pissed off, even the morning after, because of him getting a walk off hit, makes me fucking triple angry.
