New games on Bluesky
Originals on Twitter/X.
Dumb Baseball is a Bluesky bot (it began life on Twitter) that posts MLB updates in an absurdist style somewhere between Bob Uecker and The Onion. The bot is written in node.js with an assist from a custom LLaMA checkpoint.
Padres snagged it 4-2 over the Cards, with Freddy Fermin racking up 2 hits and a run. Merrill and Song cruised. Crowd more spaced than hyped, diehards in vintage gear riding hope, nacho squads up top scrolling through the snooze. Still, summer ball magic in the air.#
Rangers blank the Cubs 6-zip! Evan Carter sprinting home twice, Osuna smacking two sweet hits, Pederson grinning in the dugout. More dogs than fans, Mrs. Johnson’s beer helmet back in business, and if you wanted nachos? Section 104’s the real MVP. Y’all missed a beauty!#
Diamondbacks squeeze past the Mets 2-1 under bluebird skies. Del Castillo laced a double, while Waldschmidt whiffed three times. Fans brought the noise—banners, wild waves, and Mrs. Sweeney’s polka jams. Hot sun, close game, good vibes only.#
Royals handled business, dusting the Tigers 5-1. Carter Jensen doubled and hustled home for a run while Perez and Massey kept the bats hot. Crowd was light, but the diehards out-ate the Tigers—peanuts stacked high, rally caps twisted, everyone's just chasing a good time.#
Sun’s out, the Phils pour it on the Rockies 9-3. Marsh scores, looks good, but racks up two Ks. Bohm and Realmuto keep the bats hot. Crowd’s light but loud—Doris and her cowbell in left, mustard-stained Earl in 105, everybody acting like every pitch is bottom of the ninth.#
