Feature Request: Stop flipping games on their head

Ok, this is a semi-sarcastic post. But can the prompt being used for the genAI recaps have the following added: "Do not refer to games or innings being flipped on their head"?

Both my sons' teams have recaps that include this phrase: "[Team] flipped the game on its head in the [inning]...". Every. Single. Recap. Perhaps I'm being a little too critical, but the repetitive nature of this phrase that's uncommon in human authored baseball recaps detracts from an otherwise enjoyable feature.

Otherwise, I love the recaps and they're one of the reasons I pay for the GC subscription.

NGD - Rawlings 12” PP

A recently acquired Rawlings 12” Pro Preferred infielders glove, Japanese pattern. I’ve broken it in enough to comfortably play catch with. I’m digging the Japanese style shallow pocket, and I especially like the dark red palm liner.

NGD… Sorta

Does this count? With the number I’ve added of late and the likelihood that I’ll be breaking in gloves for my kids and possibly their teammates, this seemed like a worthwhile investment. (Wife’s opinion notwithstanding)

Palm Stain - Good or Bad

I have an opportunity to purchase a Ryu glove from a Japanese retailer. I like the pattern and the color quite a bit, but the glove has a palm stain. I realize palm stains are not uncommon and do not affect the performance of the glove, but I consider them to be a cosmetic flaw. Considering the amount of money the glove will cost (~$650), I'm leaning against purchasing it.

But I thought I would get opinions. Would you avoid purchasing a glove with a palm stain or is it a quirk you enjoy in a glove? Photo attached of the palm stain in the glove I am considering.

NGD - Rawlings PP Pitchers

I couldn’t pass up $280 out the door. I think the kids call this color mint, but to me it’s Statue of Liberty. Clean af. Do I break it in traditional or TIP? Decisions….
