When people ask what I do for work, I usually say it’s giving MLB players Oreos.
The fans asked, and we delivered.

The legend of Yaxel continues to grow. Both the player and the human. Great stuff from @AustinScott_16
Yaxel Lendeborg said it felt like he had "truly made it" after buying his mom a house 🥹 "Man, this is crazy. I'm really able to do this. I'm really going to be able to give her keys... it's definitely something I will never forget."

"When I was working day-to-day jobs in high school, I see people on YouTube doing that stuff with their mom." Yaxel Lendeborg on when he first thought about buying a house for his mom. Several years later, he made it a reality 😤

"I texted Draymond right after [Klay's OT buzzer-beater on Wednesday] and just told him 'Killer Klay it's always great to see him having fun.'" Steph Curry says it's still surreal to go against his Splash Bro Klay 🥲💛 "Every one that you get is one closer to the end."

All smiles for Klay in SF after his OT buzzer-beater last night. He’s turned back the clock with 74 points in his last 3 games for Miami.

"What they doing — it's so fake. That's some fake toughness man." Charles Bassey calls outs the Suns "fake toughness" in tonight's in-game scuffles. "It was all fake. Being physical doesn't mean you have to scuffle with guys. That doesn't mean you tough."

The Warriors didn't win five straight games once last season, and now they've won five in a row after starting 0-3. What's different with this group? STEPH CURRY: "I mean, Yax. BP [Podziemski] taking another step forward."

The greatest shooter ever started the season 51-of-51 from the free throw line until he missed his first one in the final seconds tonight. Was he shocked? STEPH CURRY: "I'm shocked when I miss any time." 😏

Asked Steve Kerr if he’s surprised by the way Yaxel Lendeborg has complemented Steph as the Warriors’ No. 2 option only fives games in to the season.
"It was pretty obvious after our first couple of games that we needed to make sure Yaxel understood he was our No. 2 option." It didn't take Steve Kerr long to realize that Yaxel Lendeborg would be the go-to guy on offense after Steph, and he knows the ball is coming to him.

My 13th birthday. Will probably forever be my favorite sports memory.
Your yearly reminder that Travis Ishikawa launched a walk-off 3-run homer to win the pennant on this day. One of, if not the greatest, home runs in Giants history.

Found a quiet area after this and my ears were ringing.
The roof just blew off SAP Center as Macklin and the Sharks take the ice for the home opener. Ear-piercing levels of sound. THE FUTURE IS TEAL.

Steph Curry on no one expecting the Warriors to make the playoffs is pure comedy 😂 "That's how bad it is — to make the playoffs?! It went from championship to playoffs?!" (leaves the podium) "PLAYOFFS?!"

So proud of this dude. Hyped to see him out in the 916 getting to cover professional sports. Dream come true. Go do your thing 🫡
A little late but some personal news: I’ve accepted a role as a freelance sports writer for the @AP and covered the last week of the MLB season. I’m extremely grateful for all of those who’ve helped me get to this point and land such an amazing opportunity. I’ll be at Kings Media Day today so stay tuned for more.

Gave Drew Gilbert my phone so he could watch/listen to Mike Krukow call his homer tonight. "He's been doing it forever. We're gonna miss him." 🥲
"Yeah that's pretty good." 😂 Mike Krukow was on the call for Drew Gilbert's home run tonight. Here's his reaction seeing it for the first time. "He's the best. He's been doing it forever. We're gonna miss him."

Struggled to find the words to describe how hard this news has hit over last 24 hours. Wags was the light of any press box and it was always a better day/night if you saw him or were seated near him b/c 1) you knew he cared about you and 2) were about to laugh your ass off. 🍻
The first person I’d talk to when covering any game in the Bay would be Wags. Seeing him would immediately brighten my day. He took me in. Helped me out. No one better to banter with. Truly one of a kind. Will microwave a cookie for 22 seconds today. This one hurts a lot. RIP.
