With new eras of the world comes new eras of sports. In what is strongly considered the social media era, sports have not disappointed. The recent Antonio Brown situation caught the attention of the whole sports world. It is an example of why social media has a huge part in sports today.
The MLB is no exception to this. Today’s MLB rosters are filled with a majority of millennials, and that is evident with the presence of most players on social media. In what is considered a mostly old school sport, baseball players are adding a modern touch to the game by contributing heavily to the movement that is the social media era.
