The Minnesota Twins may have beat the Boston Red Sox on Thursday, but it’s the daughter of team manager Rocco Baldelli that people can’t stop talking about. On Thursday (22 June), Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli brought his two-year-old daughter, Louisa, into his office, where he discussed the team’s win during the postgame press conference. However, it seemed the toddler kept herself entertained by all the baseballs in the room and adorably handing each one she found to her dad. In a video shared by the Minnesota Twins Twitter account, Louisa can be seen peeking out of the corner to hand her dad baseball after baseball. Baldelli was already holding a pile of round balls, presumably brought to him by his daughter. “Baby Baldelli just wanted to play during her dad’s press conference,” they captioned the tweet. Another video captured Louisa ducking below a desk in the corner of her father’s office, where a bag of baseballs was stored. As Baldelli spoke to reporters about pitcher Joe Ryan’s shut out performance during Thursday’s game, he said “Thank you” to Louisa for each baseball. “Ok, this is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. Louisa Baldelli getting involved in the post game presser,” tweeted reporter Audra Martin. In one video shared by MLB reporter Do-Hyoung Park, Louisa’s tiny hand could also be seen peeking out from below her dad, who was already holding a pile of baseballs brought to him by his daughter. “Baseball after baseball after baseball from Louisa,” Park captioned his tweet. Fans couldn’t get enough of Louisa’s viral appearance at the press conference, while others noted how the father-daughter interaction is almost a daily occurrence for parents with toddlers. “This is adorable,” one person tweeted. “Tell me you have a toddler without telling me you have a toddler,” another user said. “All dads out there understand this and it gets you in the feels watching this,” a third person wrote. Some people were simply impressed by how many baseballs Baldelli could hold after being given each one by Louisa, writing: “I now need to know how many baseballs he can hold.” At the end of the press conference, Park reported that Baldelli was given a total of nine baseballs, sitting in a pile in his lap.

Rafael Benitez is to become the new manager of Celta Vigo, the Spanish club have announced. Celta have confirmed an “agreement in principle” has been reached for the former Liverpool, Newcastle and Real Madrid boss to take charge at the Balaidos Stadium from the start of pre-season training July. Benitez, 63, has been out of management since he was sacked by Everton in January last year. The Spaniard boasts considerable experience having also had spells at other clubs including Chelsea, Napoli, Inter Milan and Valencia. His successes include winning the Champions League, LaLiga twice, the Europa League, UEFA Cup, Club World Cup, FA Cup and Coppa Italia. A statement from Celta described Benitez as a “formidable leader” and “one of the most successful coaches in our country’s history”. It added: “The Madrid coach has extensive experience on the bench with a career that is difficult to match.” He will succeed Carlos Carvalhal, who left after narrowly avoiding relegation last season.

Kai Havertz is on the verge of joining Arsenal from Chelsea. Here are the different ways that Mikel Arteta could use the Germany international.

Manchester United have made another improved bid for Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount, the PA news agency understands. With Mount’s contract at Stamford Bridge set to expire next summer, United have made the England international one of their transfer targets. After an initial bid was rebuffed last week, United returned with an offer of £45million plus £5million in add-ons. It is understood that was also rejected. United’s latest proposal, believed to be in the region of £55m, has now been received by Chelsea, but is yet to be considered. Chelsea are reportedly holding out for higher fee, closer to £65m, but there is a limit as to how far United are willing to go, given the player is soon out of contract and they also need to strengthen in other areas this summer. Completing a deal for Mount would certainly help bolster the options for United boss Erik ten Hag in a key midfield area. Mount came through the ranks at Chelsea, scoring 27 goals and providing 22 assists in 129 Premier League appearances. The 24-year-old – a Champions League winner with the Blues – has won 36 England caps and started the Euro 2020 final defeat to Italy.
