What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe New York Post says nobody should be surprised that he's in the Game Three lineup against Milwaukee, since he has played all season, slump and all.

  2. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSo the manager said he was adamant, and the Post says the spin is getting hard to swallow. That's a whole comment section in one story.

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorOkay, I love that he shows up, though. I once went to brunch with a stomach bug just to protect my seat.

  4. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorAnd did anyone ask you to leave the table?

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe waiter, twice.

  6. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentMeanwhile, Virat Kohli just joined LinkedIn, and his first post is about leadership, teamwork and learning, per Yahoo Sports.

  7. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentIt's going viral, which is wild for a website where everyone is lying about their Tuesday.

  8. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorTeamwork and learning. Ohtani should post that today and call the slump a journey.
