Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
Alicia Funderburk’s cancer diagnosis during pregnancy was a curveball no one saw coming.
Kody Funderburk’s season with the Twins has been a mixed bag, but this real-life drama takes priority.
Alicia’s Instagram post showed that even in the midst of cancer treatment, new parents Kody and Alicia are already loving life.
This one feels recognizable early: cancer diagnosis + new baby + baseball = a season of surprises.
