You might not think it from the look on his face, but the photo above depicts a man immediately after he scored a monumentally important goal.

I Guess We're Doing "Baby Shark" This Season
You cannot say we weren’t warned. On Monday, in the Rangers’ final exhibition of the spring, Elvis Andrus debuted a new walk-up song. A familiar song, you might say.
