Donald Trump tweets all the time, but it’s not every day the President of the United States tweets about baseball. So when he does, you know it’s one of the top posts of the day. The rest of today’s social-media highlights are a little less serious: Adam Jones has a sweet tooth, the Marlins make their rookies get coffee just like any good intern should, and the Rockies and Giants played a good old-fashioned Coors Field slugfest … in the May snow.
Donald Trump is nothing if not a showman, and he put on a good show for the World Series champion Red Sox.

It took a while for Adam Jones to find a new home as a free agent, but he sure seems happy now, producing for the Diamondbacks and eating loads of ice cream.

Speaking of sugar, how many different coffee orders did the Marlins give their rookies? We wonder if the catchers used hand signals.

Meanwhile, what’s better than a crazy 12-11 ballgame? A crazy 12-11 ballgame in some mid-May snow at mile-high elevation, that’s what.
