Jomboy Media very accurately captions the video by saying, “and Teacher of the Year goes to…” With the final run being hit, the kids – who are divided between Mariners and Blue Jays, are seen cheering and screaming.
This is how fans reacted to this complete, wholesome, and holistic display by the class teacher:

Good vibes! My kids’ elementary principal (Boston area) put the mid-day 2004 playoffs on in the auditorium and the whole school watched. Bunch of the teachers got planning time and the kids won’t forget it as long as they live. #history

The teacher replied to Jomboy Media’s tweet.
You’re doing it right. Thank you

The only good thing that has ever come out of the teacher workshop days in the KSD is that we have no school tomorrow and can watch the mariners game without being yelled at by teachers

The kid in full uniform is so pure, baseball is the best

This is more important than people think it is. Sports is part of the fabric of the community. It's ok to take a few hours out of the day to watch. I would even get behind a field trip to a game.
