I really hope you are monetizing on these somehow!

Put them on Youtube! The amount of views!

Just when you think it can’t get better...

I have no experience with this kind of thing, but looks like you have a YouTube channel already, maybe that's the avenue. Post new ones there, and then you can like to the YouTube videos instead of the twitter videos on places line reddit.

You can also sell ads in the videos, like put a logo in the video corner or at the end.

Yeah YouTube seems way simpler to monetize but twitter is my specialty, and  linking there is a huge pain point to spreading virally.
Embed the YouTube video on Twitter?

The embed idea is a good one didn’t know that was possible- I’ll look into that for my next one

Thanks guys! For now I’m content to ride this out Idk if it’s going to keep growing/if it has staying power so I’m having fun with it. But if I made any $$ that would be cool. #alwaysDDFing lol

That's a worry as old as the internet. You'll survive.

Do you just know thousands of player names by heart or do you use the Baseball reference search bar around the syllables you need and then piece it together?

Could be nice if you add the lyrics of the original song on the screen at the same time as the baseball players for people that don't know the songs.

Yeah these are much less effective when people don't know the words. I hardcore regret not using Sogard (for one of the stand on guard parts) as he's a current blue jay. I was torn about even posting this one b/c I used music with my last one and don't really want to step back, I have Gd Bless America for July 4 and don't want to oversaturate, etc. At some point the novelty may wear off, I may have been better off not posting it. Oh well..

It's always the last name or full name, I'm getting stricter about that
