Ep #274: Women’s College World Series primer & MLB Pride Month WTFs

June 01, 2023

Happy Pride Month!

On today’s episode of The GIST of It, Steph Rotz and guest host Lauren Tuiskula chat through one up and one down from the diamond. The gals start off with a preview of the always thrilling NCAA softball Women’s College World Series (WCWS), where eight teams begin their quest for the natty title today.

Then, after the break, comes the down. MLB’s kicking off Pride Month by making all the wrong headlines, with ongoing controversy surrounding the LA Dodgers’ upcoming Pride Night and a Toronto Blue Jays pitcher sharing anti-LGBTQIA+ posts. A true swing and a miss.

A big thank you to SportChek for sponsoring today’s special episode! For everything you need to keep the girls in your life in the game, head on over to SportChek.

See What GISTers are Saying About Us

I am a sports fan and it's so hard to find a female voice, or a sense of feminine agency in the sports world (unless you dig deep). Really excited to be apart of this community and conversation!

So grateful I’ve found this company. It’s great to get sports information and highlights in a way that is empowering and doesn’t make me feel inadequate for not knowing.

The GIST is the first thing that I read on Monday and Thursday mornings. It's hands down my favourite newsletter... and I'm a newsletter person!
