The month of June gave us some of the best animated sports GIFs we have ever seen. What follows is a 20-act play celebrating each one of these GIFs.

BROOKS CONRAD. WOO
JASON HEYWARD. WOOOOOOOO
DIORY HERNANDEZ. Why are you mobbing me? I didn’t do anything. The pitcher balked and advanced me home for the winning run.
BROOKS CONRAD. Maybe we should stop mobbing him, then.
JASON HEYWARD. You can’t stop mid-mob. It’s like trying to shut down a nuclear reactor. To simply shut it off immediately would be dangerous.
BROOKS CONRAD. I guess I don’t really understand mobbing the plate.
DIORY HERNANDEZ. Mobbing the plate. That sounds like a skateboarding trick.
BROOKS CONRAD. I get “celebrating.” That I get. What I don’t get is this weird thing where everyone gathers around a guy and just starts jumping around. Nobody did that, and then all of a sudden, like five years ago, EVERYBODY did it.
DIORY HERNANDEZ. Guys, are you mobbing me because you think I did a skateboarding trick? I can’t skateboard.
JASON HEYWARD. You can’t? MOB OVER, THIS ASSHOLE CAN’T SKATEBOARD
BROOKS CONRAD. (rips “I Can Skateboard” patch off sleeve of Diory Hernandez’s jersey)
DIORY HERNANDEZ. That was my only shirt.
BROOKS CONRAD. Well, it’s still your only shirt.
