Caitlin Clark gives play-by-play a try as she announces her boyfriend’s favorite….see more
Playoff-bound Caitlin Clark tried her hand at announcing a recent Major League Baseball game, as revealed by one of her Indiana Fever teammates.
Lexie Hull posted the silly clip of Clark doing play-by-play for the Milwaukee Brewers’ 2-1 win over the visiting Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday night. That footage has since gone viral on TikTok.
‘And that ball is hit to the shortstop,’ a snickering Clark began in the bottom of the fourth inning. ‘Rojas throws over to first base and that’s not going to be enough. Infield single, William Contreras.’
She may have confused Phillies shortstop Trea Turner and centerfield Johan Rojas on that play.
Undeterred, Clark continued.
Bottom fourth,’ Clark said, her voice quivering slightly as Hull giggled in the background. ‘Score of 1-0 Phillies. This brings someone to the plate… Here comes the 0-1 pitch. Low, outside.’
Clark didn’t just stick to the game action. She commented on Phillies ace Aaron Nola wearing ‘sketchers,’ and later was quick to reveal a mistake.
‘And a swing and a miss, for the second strikeout of the inning,’ she said. ‘Nola gets out of it after the lead runner gets on.’
Slightly embarrassed, Clark turned to the camera and confessed: ‘Might have been the second batter. I’m not sure.’
Once again, Clark forged ahead, informing her audience that they were entering the ‘top of the fifth’ following a commercial break.
‘We’ll be back,’ she said, by which point her commentary had devolved into laughter.
As it turns out, Clark had been talking up her announcing skills to Hull, who had demanded to see them in person.
Clark happily obliged.
‘I told [Hull] that sometimes I’ll just commentate some games, so she said, ”Alright let’s do it right now,”’ Clark told reporters Saturday. ‘I didn’t really know she was recording until a little ways through. But it’s kind of fun.’
And why did she choose a Phillies-Brewers game?
‘I’ve been following the Phillies, so I kind of know some of their players and stuff,’ added Clark, whose boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, is a confirmed Philadelphia fan. ‘It was pretty funny. I messed up a few times.
‘That’s a hard gig,’ she continued. ‘Also, I was out of breath and exhausted. Shoutout to all the commentators out there. I did it for like two minutes and I needed a break. And in baseball, there’s a lot of dead time so you need to find random things to talk about. So I was talking about his shoes, talking about random stuff. A little different than basketball.’
Clark, admittedly, is not a diehard baseball fan.
In fact, she’s fond a few teams after growing up in Iowa, where the Chicago Cubs have a Triple-A affiliate, and recently visiting the New York Yankees dugout in the Bronx.
‘My boyfriend grew up a really big Phillies fan, so I kinda had to,’ Clark said. ‘I still like the Cubs, I like the Yankees. I’m not like a diehard any baseball team… I liked the Chiefs before the Chiefs were really good too, so I’m not a bandwagoner either.’
The Fever open their playoff run on Sunday at 3pm in Connecticut, where they will face the favorited Suns in Game 1 of their first-round series.
McCaffery, meanwhile, is preparing for his first season as an assistant men’s coach at Butler in Indianapolis.

Elvira, 73, exposes Ariana Grande, 31, and says she was her worst and rudest Celeb encounter for what she did to her and Ari was quick to clap back but fans negatively react “Anxiety is not an excuse!”
During a recent conversation with her fans, Cassandra Peterson — better known as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark — revealed she had a bad interaction with a celebrity whose name “rhymes with Pariana Mande.” She then doubled down, reposting an article about her remarks on Instagram and hash-tagging Ariana Grande’s name.
It was this post that caught Ariana Grande’s eye. “I’m so disheartened to see this,” the Wicked star commented on Elvira’s post. “I actually don’t even remember getting the chance to meet you because I had an anxiety attack and to my memory, left before the rest of my family.”
In parentheses, Grande explained that she went to Elvira’s show “around 7 years ago,” when she was “really not great with being in public crowds or loud places.” She went on to apologize, and to praise Elvira. “If I’m misremembering this moment, I sincerely apologize for offending you so,” she wrote. “Thank you for being so nice to my mom, she told me how lovely you were (she might have different feelings about that now but I’ll talk to her… clearly, we all have our days!)”
What Happened Between Ariana & Elvira?
Elvira told fans about her encounter with Grande during a Q&A at Knott’s Berry Farm in California, claiming that the pop star requested 20 tickets to her show for her family and friends, but refused to take a picture with her in return.
“We gave her the tickets and she comes backstage and she asks if I can take pictures with all of her friends and relatives she brought,” she recalled, as seen in a viral video. “I take a picture with every single one of them, I sign autographs for every single one of them. Then I say to her, ‘Can we take a photo together?’ And she goes, ‘No, I don’t really do that.’”
Elvira also remembered that Grande left before the show began, which aligns with Grande’s memory of the night. “All her relatives stayed, and she took off,” Elvira said.
Here’s Ariana’s response:
After a round of boos from the Q&A audience, someone on stage with Elvira quipped, “she’s playing the wrong witch,” nodding to Grande’s role in Wicked as Glinda the Good Witch.
There seem to be no hard feelings on Grande’s side, as she ended her comment by writing “sending love always” and declaring that Elvira will “always be our queen of halloween.” Elvira has yet to respond to Grande’s apology.

Keanu Reeves, 60, finally Confirmed Marriage to Winona Ryder, 52, after 30 years, reacting to the viral marriage rumors between him and Alexandra Grant “I want to clear all doubts and make things clear that…” See more
Winona Ryder and Keanu Reeves are still madly in (platonic) love with each other.
The former “Dracula” costars have known each other since the 1980s and, as they divulged during a 2018 press tour for “Destination Wedding,” their onscreen nuptials in the 1992 Bram Stoker adaptation might’ve been legally binding.
On the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast Monday, host Josh Horowitz asked Ryder how “the two biggest luddites on the planet” even keep in touch.
“I know,” said Ryder. “But we do text, and we always say who it is, even though it says it on the text … On his birthday, when I’m like, ‘Happy Birthday, my husband!’ and I put ‘Noni,’ he’s like, ‘Hey, wife! Love you, KR 57.’ On each birthday he’s like, ‘KR 57’ or whatever his age is.”
“He’s always done that,” she explained.
Ryder and Reeves were familiar with each other long before they were cast in “Dracula.”
“We met in the late ’80s, like ’87, ’88, at one of the early Independent Spirit Awards at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel,” she told People in 2018. “It wasn’t televised. Buck Henry was the emcee, and we gave out Best Supporting Actor.”
Ryder also explained to the outlet that she had initiated their “Destination Wedding” collaboration.
“I emailed him,” she said, adding: “I was so happy because he responded.”
During an Entertainment Weekly interview with Reeves in 2018, Ryder revealed that director Francis Ford Coppola had used “a real Romanian priest” for their “Dracula” wedding scene.
“We said yes?” Reeves asked Ryder, who confirmed as much. “Oh my gosh, we’re married,” he joked.
The Romanian nuptials presumably didn’t hold, however, as Reeves and Ryder have both pursued various other romantic interests over the years.
They’re each currently in relationships with other people: Reeves has been dating artist Alexandra Grant since 2019, and Ryder’s longtime partner is fashion designer Scott Mackinlay Hahn. However, neither actor has ever tied the knot — except, of course, (potentially) with each other.
