When I was a kid playing youth baseball, I mostly played on teams that went out to the soft-serve stand after the game.  If we played well, everyone got a soft-serve cone. If we played really well, our options included a dipped cone. Last night, everybody earned a dipped cone . Even Josh Tomlin gets a dipped cone. It is, after all, a team game.  Roberto Perez and Corey Kluber? They get banana splits.
